Île de la Cité and Notre Dame Walking Tour With Crypt
Explore the heart of Paris on this walking tour of Île de la Cité, starting at the iconic equestrian statue of Henri IV. You will explore the scenic Place Dauphine and marvel at the medieval grandeur of the Tour de l’Horloge and the Conciergerie, once home to royalty and revolutionaries alike.
Your guide will share local culture, from the rich legal history of the Palais de Justice to the bustling Marché aux Fleurs (flower market). Admire the stunning exterior of Sainte-Chapelle and the world-famous Notre Dame Cathedral as your guide points out the interesting details to notice in their Gothic architecture.
Following your tour, you will enjoy a self-guided visit to the Archeological Crypt below Notre Dame, where you’ll discover the foundations of the Île de la Cité, the original Paris.
