I think this guide is worth it - I think this guide is worth it. The infos are clear and easy to follow. But pls download the guide before you go there, otherwise you may have troubles using it. The stories are very nice, especially about the gargoyles and the bells. It was perfect for walking around the cathedral on my own without a group. I would use it again for sure!

I liked the stories a lot! - I liked the stories a lot! The app was easy to use, but I had some trouble figuring out where to start because I didn’t read the instructions carefully (my bad). Once I got it going, it was great, and the explanations made the experience much more engaging. If you want to get the most out of your visit, this guide is a good idea. Just make sure to set it up before you arrive!

Seeing Notre Dame after its reopening - Seeing Notre Dame after its reopening was absolutely incredible. The audio guide gave so much context about the renovations and the challenges after the fire. I felt like I appreciated the details even more because of the stories in the guide. The app worked perfectly, and I loved being able to explore at my own pace. This is a must for anyone visiting Paris!

The audio guide was so helpful! - The audio guide was so helpful! While waiting in the queue to enter Notre Dame, I listened to the history about the facade and statues. It really made the time fly by, and I learned so much before even stepping inside. It’s great that you can start the tour outside, where there’s so much to see already. Very convenient and worth it!

This audio guide was great for my visit! - This audio guide was great for my visit! It was really easy to use, just make sure to download everything beforehand because the WiFi around Notre Dame isn’t the best. I loved the detailed stories, especially about the history of the Cathedral’s construction—so interesting! My tip: bring headphones so you can enjoy it without distractions. Overall, a great way to learn while exploring. Definitely recommend!

An awful (non) experience. - We had a terrible time trying to connect with the app, and we were unable to download anything for a tour. The instructions are ridiculously vague and misleading. We had to discover that we needed to download an app that didn’t get us anywhere!! We have used Viator previously and we’re very happy. This tour attempt was awful!!

Horrible!!!! - Terrible and confusing. The starting description was not accurate. No link to app to download audio to phone. Never did tour given all the chaos. Terrible instructions. Do not recommend. It is to just take your money.

Don’t do it - The directions on how to acquire the audio app do not work. I tried 20 times to get the app to no avail so I ended up paying for the tour and was unable to get the audio. Compounding it when I tried to contact the operator I never got a response. Very obvious they just want your money and don’t care about the customers experience

Have had no experience Would not book again. I want the money back - Hallo I could not load the ticket despite good prerequisites. Capable mobile phone ——- Had no access to the data at all. That was really stupid. Took a lot of time and led to nothing At the phone number, I was told it was not known. That's stupid. This is really a big annoyance
