Wonderful tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and made our tour very interesting. The short walk around the area gave background before entering Sainte Chapell. We highly recommend this tour.

The headphones were problematic. Wld not stay on ear and cld not hear your guide. Disappointed and ruined tour..
Matt did a great job explaining what we saw. Walking around Notre Dame before hand was a surprise bonus.
Thank you, Mark! Glad that little detour past Notre Dame felt like such a nice surprise, the two buildings share such a close history on the Île de la Cité. We're glad Mathieu explained it all so well. We'll be sure he sees this and we hope you enjoyed Paris!
Almost everyone who travels to Paris wants to see and tour Notre Dame, and they definitely should, especially now that it has been restored because of the fire. But many miss the world’s most amazing collection of original stained glass that is only a few hundred yards away on the west end of the Île de la Citè: Sainte Chapelle. King Louis IX lived in the palace on the west end of the island and he was very religious, so much so that he is the only king of France to ever be named a saint! Even though he was so religious, he was also a very wealthy king and he decided to build his own private chapel at his castle. He poured so much money into it that it took less than 10 years to complete this amazing chapel. The panels of stained glass tell the story of Old Testament books, the passion of Christ, and one panel depicts the history of the chapel’s most precious relic: the Crown of Thorns worn by Jesus. (Now housed at Notre Dame). The panel even depicts King (St) Louis receiving the crown from monks and then delivering the crown from the river, down the street to the chapel dressed as a barefoot penitent man. Our guide, Avi, had an encyclopedic amount of knowledge about King Louis IX life and the Chapel and did a wonderful job guiding us through all of it. As far as tour guide go he is a 10/10. We highly recommend this tour to everyone.
Thank you so much for such a beautifully detailed review, Robert. You've put into words something we feel every time we walk into Sainte-Chapelle ourselves, and we've been there more times than we could count, it genuinely never stops taking your breath away, that first moment the light hits the glass. So many visitors head straight for Notre Dame and never realize this is just a few hundred metres away, which is honestly one of the reasons we love this tour so much - it's a chance to show people something extraordinary and really make a difference to a visit, rather than leave you to work out the stories on your own. That's exactly where Avi's knowledge makes such a difference, turning stained glass panels into an actual story, rather than beautiful windows with no context behind them. A 10/10 from someone who clearly did their own homework on the chapel's history means a great deal. We'll be sure Avi sees just how much this meant to you, and thank you again for taking the time to write something so thoughtful, it's exactly the kind of review that helps other travelers realize this is a place they shouldn't miss.
Guide provided lots of information about Ste Chappelle and the prison next to it. Stain glass is amazing on bright day.
Thank you, David! There's so much packed into that spot, Sainte-Chapelle itself and the history of the Conciergerie right beside it, and it's wonderful that both came through so clearly. You're so right about the light too, the stained glass truly transforms on a bright day, one of the many things that makes each visit feel a little different. We'll be sure this feedback reaches the team!
Anthony was our guide and was amazing! SO enthusiastic & knowledgeable…..truly had a passion for Saint Chapelle & guiding tours!
Thank you, Kim! Sainte-Chapelle has a way of drawing that kind of passion out of anyone who spends real time with it, those windows alone hold centuries of stories, and Anthony clearly brings all of that to life. We'll be sure to pass this along to him!
Anthony was wonderful! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Clearly he loves his job and the venue. Go.
Thank you, Kathy! We're so glad Anthony's genuine love for the venue and its history came through so clearly. That kind of enthusiasm is contagious, and we completely agree when it comes to the Sainte Chapelle. It's a spectacular and gorgeous site that should not be missed. We'll be sure to pass this along to Anthony!
Tour was great and very informative. It was nice to have the skip the line tickets and we got right in. No waiting in the long line.
Thank you, Robert! We're so glad skipping the line made such a difference, getting straight in rather than waiting. We really appreciate you sharing this and hope you had a great stay here!
Wonderful tour. Very informative and excellent tour guide. My complaint: Our tour was scheduled for 2:45pm, however when we started the tour we were told that our admission was 3:15pm. The tour guide asked us if we wanted to go to Notre Dame or the Palace to kill the half hour. We went to Notre Dame and even though I enjoyed it, I was annoyed we were starting the tour 1/2 hour later than our tickets calle for. We should have been informed ahead of time.
Thank you, Dion! We're so glad the tour itself came through as informative and well-guided. On the timing: the Sainte-Chapelle entry is always around 30 minutes after the tour begins by design, since we use that time to explore Notre Dame's exterior and the history of the Île de la Cité, which ties directly into the Sainte-Chapelle's own story. It's meant to be part of the experience rather than time to fill, and we take your point that this should be made clear from the very start rather than presented in the moment. Glad you enjoyed Notre Dame regardless, and we'll make sure this is communicated more clearly going forward!
Avi was excellent... so much knowledge, but added some humor. Took questions... spoke clearly. My favorite
Thank you, Robert! We're so glad Avi's mix of knowledge and humour landed so well, and that he took the time to answer your questions clearly throughout. Really appreciate being your favorite, and we'll make sure he sees this!
