A great tour of Notre Dame - Our guide shared useful information about the exterior and interior of Notre Dame. She was friendly and did a great job of keeping a good pace. Very much appreciated having a scheduled entry time.

Excellent Notre Dame Tour - For us we felt luckily to get the guide we had, as she was super knowledgeable about the long previous history as well as details of the restoration process. I had visited 3 previous times prior to the fire and loved seeing the new changes.

Great inside tour - Our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us fun information. We really enjoyed her. We came away with a good understanding of the damage done by the fire but insight into all the things done to keep Notre Dame alive.

Notre Dame, a must! - Our guide was fantastic. Great tour with excellent audio equipment. You need to give the guide a raise! The only thing I wish there was time for was a guided walk around the church to learn more about the architecture.

Knowledgeable; used to skip general admission line - We planned to arrive early, and were delayed by by a police action at Norte Dame, and tole it would open 2 hours after our start time. Thus I can say that the “emergency line” of Trip Advisor was able to take our call and they tried to reach the guide (but of course the line was busy). If we were not able to attend, we would have a refund. Luckily the 2 hour forecast turned into 5 minutes, and we arrived at the appointed time. The tour started later due to the need to assemble the headphones, but we were not rushed through to “make up” the time. Mi was quite knowledgeable, but then I am not an art historian or a religious expert. I definitely needed a guide to know what I was looking at! Reading other reviews, we were not held to enter via general admission but when right in via group tour access. And yes, we realized that we purchased the tour in order to skip the GA line (bad planning on our part, as we looked into booking 3 days prior. Tip: Book for as early as possible time as you can; Norte Dame fills up quickly. It was “not bad” on our 9:30 am entry, per our guide; I can’t imagine what it is when it is “normal”. Be prepared to be a sardine, and go with the flow. PS. Beautiful, well done restoration work.

Ho hum tour - Too expensive for the value. Tour guide was friendly but superficial. Did not always speak into her microphone. Was frustrating. Pictures shown on her lap top were hard to see.

Very poorly organized tour - The tour was supposed to include special entry to Notre Dame. That didn’t happen. We had to wait 25 minutes in the general admission line. Mi would hope for a refund for a portion of the tour
