Notre-Dame Island, Sainte-Chapelle, and Conciergerie: Guided Tour

From Gothic treasures to kaleidoscopic church windows, immerse yourself in the City of Light's most striking medieval architecture. Join your spirited local expert for an in-depth short tour of the Latin Quarter. Fill your brain with facts about 13th-century scholars, and visit the island on the Seine that the infamous Notre-Dame calls home.
At the royal Sainte-Chapelle, your jaw might drop like a cartoon character at the magnificence of the timeless stained-glass windows. See how they rise to the ceilings in majestic swirls and psychedelic patterns. It is a lot like walking into a life-sized kaleidoscope! Built in the 13th century by King Saint-Louis to house his collection of religious relics, the Sainte-Chapelle holds a rightful place as one of the most beautiful in the whole world.
There's more to see at the Conciergerie, feel the medieval atmosphere oozing from Renaissance-period cells, where prisoners, including the famous Marie Antoinette, were once kept behind bars for their sins. You'll walk around Notre-Dame, too. The flames of the recent catastrophic fire may have demolished several parts of this iconic cathedral, but many of its treasures were rescued. The striking bell towers and rose windows remain intact.
