Notre-Dame, the Eiffel Tower and the island where Paris began.

Seeing the landmarks of Paris with a guide

Notre-Dame, the Eiffel Tower and the Île de la Cité are the places every first visit to Paris is built around, and the places where a good guide makes the biggest difference. Instead of queuing and guessing what you are looking at, you follow someone who knows the way in and the stories behind the stones, from the medieval builders of Notre-Dame to Gustave Eiffel's iron tower.

Our landmark tours last between one and two hours. Notre-Dame stands on the Île de la Cité, so the cathedral and the island where Paris began are easy to combine on the same day.
