Il programma nel dettaglio
As historical as it is marvellous, walk the footsteps of 2,000-year old history as you explore the heart of Paris - Ile de la Cité. Home of kings and world-changing political uprisings, hear of histories, revolutionary rivalries and romantic interludes that happened in this very place.
HIGHLIGHTS:
* Skip the line entry to Sainte Chapelle
* Learn the intriguing history of how Notre Dame Cathedral came to be
* Admire over 6,500 square feet of 13th century stained glass at Sainte Chapelle
Visit the stunning Notre Dame Cathedral with its flying buttresses and gothic architecture. See for yourself why Victor Hugo chose this monument as the setting for his widely-acclaimed novel, The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Soaring spires reach toward the sky as looming gargoyles pierce you with their stony eyes. Listen as the monumental organ and imposing bell towers ring to life, creating a superbly ominous ambiance.
Your guide will reveal the histories and mysteries captured within these walls before whisking you straight past the crowds into the nearby Sainte Chapelle. Dazzling in colour, this is a sparkling Parisian gem not to be missed with over 6,500 square feet of 13th century stained glass.
Get the most out of your visit with skip the line access and save precious time with this tour of both Notre Dame and Sainte Chapelle.
