Beautiful chapel, didn’t get in until about 30 minutes after my scheduled time but that’s okay. Conciergeie had an interesting interactive tablet experience which I enjoyed as well, would be great for kids!

5* Harry, Nov. 2022

Liked the guide, very informative and took the time to answer all my questions. Only concern is that Notre Dame is closed obviously for renovations. No mention in the description was made in that this was a walk around, no inside access possible.
