Description

Notre-Dame Cathedral has reopened after five years of restoration. This private guided tour gives you and your group a dedicated licensed guide to explore the cathedral exterior and interior at your own pace.
Begin on the Parvis, where your guide explains the west façade in detail. The three entrance portals, the Gallery of Kings, the twin bell towers, and the flying buttress system are covered with commentary adapted to your interests and questions. Unlike group tours, your guide adjusts the focus based on what matters most to you — architecture, history, religion, or the restoration process.
Enter the cathedral through the general admission line. Your guide accompanies you and continues commentary while waiting. Inside, discover the nave, the choir, the side chapels, and the three medieval rose windows. Your guide provides context about key historical events linked to the cathedral, from its construction beginning in 1163 to the fire of 2019 and the restoration that followed.
The private format allows for a flexible rhythm. Spend more time on the elements that interest you, ask questions freely, and enjoy a personalized experience without sharing your guide with other visitors.
Available in multiple languages. Please choose your preferred language at the time of booking.
