Stop At: Ile de la Cite, 75001 Paris France

Your tour begins on the island next to Notre Dame Cathedral, where you’ll be deciphering the intricate details of the stone façade of this Gothic masterpiece and learning the difference between a gargoyle and a grotesque. Despite the recent fire that partially destroyed its roof, you'll be able to witness the architectural majesty of this medieval monument!

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Sainte-Chapelle, 8 Boulevard du Palais, 75001 Paris France

Finally the dazzling Sainte Chapelle, a masterpiece of medieval engineering with walls made entirely of stained glass. You’ll learn about the king behind this ambitious and costly project, and the high-profile relic for which the chapel was built.


Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Conciergerie, 2 boulevard du Palais, 75001 Paris France

Next it’s the Conciergerie, a former royal palace and infamous prison that struck fear into the hearts of its detainees. You’ll see the sprawling vaulted ceilings of the Salle des Gens d’Armes, the world’s largest gothic hall and discover old prison cells, offering different levels of comfort according to the social status of the prisoner. The French Revolution also comes to life as you retrace Marie Antoinette’s fateful trip to the guillotine.
