About this activity
Skip-the-Line Musée d'Orsay Tour (2 Hours) Meet your guide near Paris’ famous Musée d'Orsay in the morning and enjoy skip-the-line entry to beat the queues and head straight inside the museum. Home to the world’s largest collection of Impressionist paintings, the Musée d'Orsay is widely considered among Paris’ finest museums and gallery spaces.
On your 2-hour tour, admire magnificent masterpieces by luminaries such as van Gogh, Degas, Cézanne, Renoir and Lautrec, and gain insight into their lives and works from your guide. Explore the museum’s impressive collection of Monet classics — including Falaise de Fécamp and his Rouen Cathedral series — and learn of the innovative techniques for which he is famous.
After two hours, your tour concludes in the Musée d'Orsay. Enjoy a relaxing break for lunch (own expense) then take the short, picturesque stroll along the banks of the Seine River to the Île de la Cité — the meeting point for your second tour.
Notre-Dame Cathedral Tour (2 Hours) Begin your afternoon tour with a guided walk around Paris’ famous Île de la Cité, the true heart of the French capital. Explore the vibrant flower market and discover important landmarks such as Queen Marie Antoinette’s final residence.
Follow your guide to the spectacularly beautiful Notre-Dame Cathedral — considered by many to be the finest example of 12th-century Gothic architecture in the world.
Marvel at the ornate stonework on the cathedral’s imposing façade and listen as your guide details the complex construction techniques used. Join the main admission lines, and then head inside to admire the cathedral's valuable treasures such as the 13th-century stained glass windows, the organ and the carved wooden stalls of the central choir.
After two hours exploring the Île de la Cité and Notre-Dame Cathedral, your Paris Super Saver tour will come to an end inside the cathedral.
