Tour of Cathederal Notre Dame

Paul_S, Jun 2026

There is so much detail and history in the cathederal of Notre Dame. This tour was a great way to just get a small dose of the amazing planning and thought that went into its construction

Notre Dame de Reims.

Gregory_K, May 2026

The tour guide was very informative about the items inside the Cathedral. Tour was short. I am not sure if it is possible but a tour that included a climb up the spires would have been great.

A great tour of Reims Cathedral

Nicole_D, May 2026

This was an awesome tour! Celine was so thorough, taking us through the entire Cathedral, inside and out, navigating the rain. She knew the answers to every question and was kind and helpful.

Kim_S, Apr 2026

Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke good English. She knew many interesting stories to tell about the stained glass windows and statutes, and pointing out the 'jokes' builders incorporated in the Cathedral. It's such a beautiful church/cathedral with an even more interesting history, a tour is well recommended.

Amazing tour with passionate guide.

Gary_M, Nov 2025

The tour was exceptional and very detailed. The guide was knowledgeable, passionate about the subject, had a great sense of humor and was a great story teller. Overall excellent.

Great Tour-Knowledgeable Guide

Martine_G, Sep 2025

Valérie gave us a great tour of the Reims cathedral over 90 minutes. She shared tons of information on the history, architecture and the French kingd coronation rituals. She was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. Learned a great deal ln this tour!

Excellent tour of Notre-Dame Cathedrale Reims

Mark_L, Dec 2024

The tour guide had excellent knowledge of the cathedral. The length of the tour was value for money.

A day at Reims Cathedral

Joseph_V, May 2024

There was a festival going on around the cathedral. Everything was totally jammed. No fault of Viator or the local provider. That said, the guide was good, but not superior. There were some facts she was fuzzy on. The cathedral was destroyed by German artillery fire during World War I. The damages from war vs the damages from age were not clearly described.

Interesting historical aspect of this cathedral, a lot of history, and the stained glass windows are magnificent.

Johanne_L, Jul 2026

Our guide was friendly and had a humorous side; she is very well informed and answers our questions as there are many events related to this cathedral.

Guided tour to recommend

Renata_D, Aug 2025

We enjoyed this guided tour without which we would have missed the many meanings surrounding the statues, among others. The guide was particularly interesting and shared his passion for this beautiful ship that has been able to cross the centuries.

Not well understood and few extras told by the guide

Karin_F, Jul 2025

Guide not well understood. Why not a microphone oid? We speak reasonably French, but we must be able to concentrate. With such a large group and a lot of noise in the background, we barely managed to follow the story. Guide also told little surprising. All info could also be read in the Cathedrale.

Très intéressant et super guide.

Thomas_B, May 2024

Guide très intéressante et accessible. Beaucoup de détails et d’anecdotes pour imagée ses propos. Indispensable si l’on veut saisir la beauté du site.
