1 / 6Notre-Dame Cathedral has stood for over 860 years — and after the 2019 fire, it has never looked more extraordinary than right now.
Join an expert Paris guide for a tour around one of the world's greatest Gothic monuments - the Portal of the Last Judgment, the gargoyles, the flying buttresses, and the dramatic restoration story told from the outside where the true scale of the cathedral reveals itself.
Three options available:
Reserved semi-private interior tour with audio headsets (max 9 guests) - the only option where your guide accompanies you inside.
Guided walking tour with independent cathedral entry - walk with your guide, then enter the cathedral yourself at your own pace.
Fully private walking tour with independent cathedral entry - same as option 2 but exclusively for your group
Your guide will be at the Charlemagne statue, wearing a black cap with the Scenic Zest logo. Check-in begins 15 minutes before your tour start time.
Option 1 — Guided Tour & Cathedral Visit (Morning, max 20) Enter Notre-Dame yourself, explore the restored nave and medieval interior at your own pace, then join your expert guide for a historical walking tour — the gargoyles, flying buttresses, and the 2019 fire story. Option 2 — Interior Guided Tour (Semi-Private, max 9) Your state-licensed expert takes you inside the restored Cathedral with reserved access and professional audio headsets — the fire, the restoration, the medieval nave, and the hidden details most visitors never find. Intimate and unhurried. Option 3 — Private Expert Tour (your group only) Enter Notre-Dame yourself at your own pace, then step outside with your private expert guide for an in-depth historical experience tailored entirely to your group. One guide, one group, no strangers.

With a deep-rooted passion for French history and a background in business analysis, I view every tour as a complex, beautiful story waiting to be told. Having lived in France since 2021 and transitioned from a career in management to the heart of the tourism industry, I bring a unique, analytical perspective to the city’s past. When I’m not leading walks through the streets of Paris, I’m documenting the city’s hidden secrets as a blog writer, dedicated to uncovering the 'why' behind the monuments we love.
Statue de Charlemagne et ses leudes, 75004 Paris (Île de la Cité) Your guide will be at the Charlemagne statue, wearing a black flag or black sign with the Scenic Zest written on it. Check-in begins 15 minutes before your tour start time.
