Your Experience

Discover the heart of medieval Paris as you explore the exceptional Conciergerie with these skip the line entry tickets. Originally a royal Gothic palace, the Conciergerie went on to become a major place of detention during the French Revolution. The historic monument, now a public museum, has borne witness to some of the most important moments in French history, allowing visitors to resonate with the past glories and dark sides of the Revolution. Marvel at Gothic halls built in the 14th century, see the dungeons and prison cells of criminals and the tombs of heroes of the French Revolution, appreciate Marie-Antoinette’s cell which was later transformed into a chapel, and discover the historic courtroom.

Also included in the package is a one-hour cruise along the River Seine, which you can choose to redeem on any day within three months. The cruise will afford you with unobstructed views of essential Parisian landmarks, some of them being the Eiffel Tower, Orsay Museum, Cite de la Mode, Hotel de Ville, and more. Learn all about these monuments with the help of an audio guide on board. Relax and unwind as you drift past charming houseboats and floating restaurants.
