This is an in-depth exploration of the histories, myths, legends, and lore hidden behind the stones of Paris’ most interesting neighborhood. From the gothic splendor of the bell towers of Notre Dame that inspired Victor Hugo to create his hunchback bell-ringer, to the darkest cells in the Conciergerie where condemned dissidents awaited death during the Revolutionary Reign of Terror, the Île de la Cité has witnessed the best and the worst of Parisian history and you’ll hear all the stories that make it such a special place.
Your tour begins at Notre Dame where you’ll meet your expert guide and an intimate group of 15 people or fewer. Inside, you’ll marvel at the famous Rose Window, admire the stunning arches of the cathedral’s gothic architecture and learn how Victor Hugo and his Hunchback of Notre Dame actually saved this beautiful building from demolition. Next you’ll travel back in time, exploring the streets of Île de la Cité as your guide tells you what life was like here from the Middle Ages to the Revolution (hint: it wasn’t anywhere near as clean as it is today). You’ll stop in the Conciergerie, a lovely building with a dark past that was used host the tribunals of the French Revolution and to imprison political prisoners awaiting their date with the guillotine. The building was recently renovated, including the cell where Marie Antoinette spent the last days before her execution, under heavy guard and in very difficult conditions. You’ll also see a second cell where she was briefly kept, now converted into a tiny chapel.
After these dark delights you’ll see something much more life-affirming. If you thought Notre Dame’s Rose Window was beautiful, Sainte Chapelle is going to blow you away. This royal chapel was originally built to house relics and today it’s still one of the most jaw-dropping rooms in Paris. It’s also one of the city’s most popular attractions. Luckily, you have skip the line tickets so you’ll walk right past entrance lines that can be hours long.
After a lunch break (with plenty of restaurant recommendations from your guide) you will reconvene for skip the line access to the tower of Notre Dame. With a timed entrance, your guide will get you past long lines and straight inside, accompanying you to the first level foyer then leaving you to do the climb and visit at your own pace. Like Sainte Chapelle, the towers of Notre Dame are popular for good reason. You’ll get up close to the famous gargoyles and inside the bell tower to see where Victor Hugo’s hunchback lived. This tour has access to the highest point of the cathedral too, with 360 degree vantage point, for our favorite views of the city. After all, when you climb the Eiffel Tower, you can’t see the Eiffel Tower. From Notre Dame you have the whole city at your feet.
Your tour starts by skipping the lines to walk directly into the Catacombs. This vast, underground cemetery is composed of miles of underground tunnels lined with the skulls and bones of some 6 million Parisians. In the company of a local expert guide and a small group of 19 people or fewer you’ll explore this unbelievable city of the dead where each room reveals ever more ornate and macabre bone decorations.
Along the way, you’ll hear the unbelievable story of how the catacombs were built and the massive project that was undertaken to move bones from around the city to this point. Your special-access status means the guards will also open gates just for your group, letting you into areas like a secret chapel ornately decorated with skulls and femurs.
Believe it or not, the Paris Catacombs are just as much a symbol of city at Notre Dame or the Eiffel Tower. They contain bones representing some 2,000 years of history and their construction was a unique civil engineering project that helped give rise to the modern city. If you want to see a different and completely surprising side of the City of Lights, this is the perfect place to start.

When you climb out of the Catacombs, you’ll be whisked across the city by private transport (avoiding a tricky journey by public transport or an expensive taxi), to Père Lachaise Cemetery. One of the most-visited cemeteries in the world, it’s packed with the graves of famous people who died in the city. Your guide will treat you to a full guided tour of Père Lachaise and let you pay your respects at some of the cemetery’s most famous residents’ tombs, like Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, Edith Piaf, Chopin & Delacroix among others.
Although visiting the catacombs and cemeteries may seem morbid, the Paris Catacombs contain bones representing some 2,000 years of history in this remarkable city while Père Lachaise is the best place to learn about the city’s artists and thinkers. They are a unique and fascinating monument to the civic projects and personalities that created one of the world’s most marvelous cities.
