# Notre Dame Paris Cathedral - Exterior Guided Tour

Canonical: https://m.city/en/tour/343759p47/

Discover Notre-Dame the way most visitors never do: from the outside in. Starting in the Latin Quarter, your licensed guide leads you to some of the best viewpoints over the cathedral before crossing the Seine to its famous west façade. Learn to read the sculpted portals and the Gallery of Kings, understand the engineering behind the flying buttresses, and hear the story of the 2019 fire, the rebuilding of the spire, and the craftsmen who brought Notre-Dame back to life. The tour continues across the Île de la Cité, the island where Paris was born, tracing its history from Roman Lutetia to the medieval city. Keep it intimate in a small group of 8 people max, or book a private tour and let your guide tailor the stories to your interests, from Gothic architecture to the restoration. Families and children are always welcome. This is an exterior tour. Entry to the cathedral is free for individual visitors, and you're welcome to go inside on your own afterwards.
