Our guide Diana was lovely and her IPad pictures of the fire very helpful. There was quite a bit of time I could not hear her though. I'd recommend headsets if it's not too costly. I apologize too because I wanted to go and pray and I was informed by my friend that the group dispersed before time. So sorry. I didn't mean to cause a problem. Please tell Diana that I prayed for her request. The message that came to me is that she is to become quiet and listen. Stella from The Yukon (Canada).

In this awesome building, and I use this word advisedly, our visit was enhanced by the excellent guide who gave us so much more than we may have seen on english documentaries. The guide's insight into some of the restoration detail was amazing and his explanation of some of the symbolism in the Cathedral was excellent. I was only sad that I had to leave before he had finished. I have tried to upload a photo which, despite my reducing it to 1MG, the photo would not upload.

The tour of the church was very good and informative. Also because we had a guide for two and didn't have to share her with a large group. What was less nice was that we had to walk through the long queue in the rain and cold, even though we had booked in advance and it was advertised that we didn't have to stand in the queue. There was probably only one entrance. That was incomprehensible with the mass of visitors best regards Heike Lemm and Ruth Hürster

    Our guide, Sylvia, was the epitome of an outstanding tour guide! As a former European History teacher, I was very impressed with her vast knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion for Notre Dame. We were fortunate to have her as our guide. The Frommers
