Guide provided lots of...

David_L, Sep 2026

Guide provided lots of information about Ste Chappelle and the prison next to it. Stain glass is amazing on bright day.

Response from Host, Sep 2026

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!

Must see Saint Chapelle

Kim_F, Aug 2026

Anthony was our guide and was amazing! SO enthusiastic & knowledgeable…..truly had a passion for Saint Chapelle & guiding tours!

Response from Host, Aug 2026

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!

Ask for Anthony!

Kathy_M, Aug 2026

Anthony was wonderful! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Clearly he loves his job and the venue. Go.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

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!

Great tour!

Robert_H, Jul 2026

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.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

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!

Good tour of Ste Chapelle

Dion_S, Jul 2026

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.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

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!

Soooo worth it..

Robert_L, Jul 2026

Avi was excellent... so much knowledge, but added some humor. Took questions... spoke clearly. My favorite

Response from Host, Jul 2026

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!

Insightful tour of Sainte-Chappelle

Sholto_S, Jun 2026

A really enjoyable tour, that helped our understanding of Sainte-Chappelle. We learned far more from our knowledgeable guide than we could have ever done visiting on our own. She was also really good at giving us context for what we were seeing and helping us to see some of the more important details.

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you Sholto! Sainte-Chapelle is breathtaking but it's the context and the details that really bring it to life — those stained glass windows have so many stories to tell. We're so glad Anais helped you see things you'd never have noticed on your own. She'll be delighted to hear this! Hope you had a wonderful time here in Paris.

Amazing! Great guide very...

Judi_O, Apr 2026

Amazing! Great guide very patient and answered all our questions. Sainte Chapelle is beautiful and not to be missed.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hello Judi and thank you! We agree that the Saint-Chapelle is just breathtaking - all the more so when you know the stories that lie behind such exquisite beauty. For such a small place it packs an outsized wallop, every in just so dense with history. We were thrilled to have been able to share all that with you!

This tour’s meeting place...

Melva_O, Apr 2026

This tour’s meeting place was not at the Sainte Chappell, but rather at a site not far away. Julie, our guide, was excellent. Her English was very good. She provided some Paris history along the way.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hello Melva and thanks for the heads up for other visitors. As indicated on your voucher the meeting point is at our brick and mortar shop nearby, but people sometimes skip over that information, so it's good to have it reiterated. We are so glad you enjoyed Julie's presentation of the exquisite Sainte-Chapelle and all its rich history and stained glass, and some of the history of the capital thrown in for good measure. Thank you for the recommendation and all the stars!
