Full Description
  • Discover the wonders of these magnificent pieces of Gothic architecture located in the heart of Paris. 
  • Explore Notre Dame’s beautiful facade as we trace the Ile de la Cité’s rich history and understand the spiritual and scientific relevance of Paris’ Point Zero. Take a closer look at the statues, murals and paintings and begin to understand the legends behind them. 
  • Join local historians as we observe architectural choices and small details on the cathedral. Observe the depictions on the central doorway which tell the story of the last judgement and hear the sad tale behind Notre Dame’s row of 28 statues? Wander down the central aisle as we soak in the grandeur of Notre Dame’s architecture and look up at the Rose Windows and understand the symbolism they hold.
  • Then uncover the lesser-known Parisian gem, Sainte Chapelle. Marvel at the world’s finest collection of stained glass and discover relics of Christianity. We’ll also trace the area’s history as we leave the chapel and discover the surrounding Palais de la Cité - the main residence of the French Kings from the 6th to the 14th century.
  • On this breathtaking audio tour, you’ll join Ed, our resident historian, and Kristen, a local journalist. We’ll not only wander through the Gothic Sainte Chapelle, but we’ll explore the wider significance of this area, which has been at the centre of Parisian power for the past 1700 years. This is the ultimate guide to the Sainte Chapelle and its surrounding area. Our interactive digital audio guide can be downloaded anytime directly onto your smartphone!
  • The tour starts as you queue outside the Sainte Chapelle, where we give you a few tips and tricks on how to get in quicker (and in some cases, how to get in for free). Be sure to listen to this track before you buy your tickets.
  • Once you’re in, we’ll head straight to the Statue of King Louis 9th, better known as Saint Louis. We’ll learn more about this fascinating character and his imprint on France, Christianity and the wider world. We’ll understand the significance of the Sainte Chapelle, hear stories about the relics it held and learn about its status as the most important building in medieval Europe.
  • We’ll wind up the narrow steps and emerge into one of the most incredible sites in the world. Marvel at the beauty of the stained glass windows and learn about the architectural genius needed to construct this chapel. As you try to spot some famous scenes in the stained glass windows, Ed will explain the chapel’s cultural and artistic significance.
  • The tour continues as we leave the chapel. We explore the chapel’s exterior and dive deeper into the architecture and design of the building. We also start to trace the area’s past, and learn about its role as a place of power - from Roman emperors to 17th century monarchs to the modern day.
  • We’ll take in the Palais de la Cité, learn about the bloody days of the revolution as we walk past the Conciergerie and we’ll meander to the Seine river to spot the medieval remnants of the area. Along the way we’ll point out a few gems, such as France’s oldest public clock.
  • The Vidi Guides experience is enriched with on-screen photos and videos. We also point out where to take the perfect Instagram photos during the tour, and include recommendations for food, drinks, and local attractions. Don't worry, none of our recommendations are sponsored - they are simply favourites of the locals who helped craft the experience.
  • Vidi Guides creates immersive audio experiences that are like podcasts. This is a self-guided audio tour that can be started or stopped at your own convenience. Download the Vidi Guides app & your Sainte Chapelle tour to explore the area independently and safely! Make sure to download your tour before your visit to streamline your trip!
