Essential Visit

Everything you need for a smooth Notre-Dame visit — reservation assistance plus a complete digital guide.

The west façade of Notre-Dame de Paris

Essential Visit is for travellers who want the practical things handled: your timed-entry reservation secured (or refunded), a clear interior route with the key things to see, a nearby map of cafés and museums, and a calm audio guide — all on your phone, web and apps.

It includes email support, a practical guide covering arrival, dress guidance and security, and a full-refund guarantee if your reservation is not secured at least 2 hours before your visit.
