The refurbished edifice...

RobertC_S, Jun 2026

The refurbished edifice is spectacular. The guide was knowledgeable but much of what he said was unintelligible. This tour NEEDS quiet boxes with a good microphone for the guide.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Robert. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the beautifully restored Notre Dame Cathedral and found your guide knowledgeable. We're sorry, however, that you had difficulty hearing parts of the commentary. We understand how important it is to clearly hear your guide, especially in such a remarkable setting. Your suggestion regarding the use of audio headsets is appreciated, and we've shared your feedback with our local operations team as we continually look for ways to improve the experience for our guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you on another tour in the future.

Our guide was excellent. ...

Our guide was excellent. He provided history and an accounting of the restoration following the fire.

Not the best

Cheryl_K, May 2026

The tour itself was interesting and informative. However the guide was impatient and in a hurry. We were supposed to be there 15 minutes before. 20 minutes before he was repeat calling and messaging. We were paying our cab. He was loudly telling me that we should’ve able to see the meeting point “right in front of me”. This was a mass of humanity we were navigating. It was rude. We were on time and the tour began ten minutes early. We did our part. He was rushed for some reason.

Response from Host, May 2026

Hi Cheryl, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are glad you found the tour content interesting, but we are sorry to hear the meeting process felt rushed. While our guides prioritize punctuality to ensure the group clears security checkpoints on time, we aim for a much more welcoming tone than what you described. We have shared your comments with our Paris Operations Manager to ensure our check in process remains professional even during busy times. We are committed to improving and hope to provide a smoother experience for you in the future.
