    I enjoyed walking around the area and learning about the various structures. I was surprised we were handed a piece of paper with the audio instructions and that wasn't provided in an email. I do not have that piece of paper so missed that part of the tour as promised. The guide was very knowledgeable and took us to some interesting places around Notre Dame. He provided a brief description of Notre Dame which was helpful. I just wish I had the audio guide instructions as I would still like to listen and I did pay for that. Thank you!

    Short history hearing was interesting and flower market was very beautiful. At the venue was traffic so noisy and the tour guide spoke so quietly, so half of the information went missing. I thought, that the tour ticket also includes skip-the-line tickets, but not.
