Notre Dame for Families: Stories in Stone

2-hour tour. 250 euros per family
An educational program for families with children ages 6-12.

Stories in Stone activity book

Notre Dame Cathedral will capture the imagination of your children, as it has for generations of Parisians. On this tour, your private guide will teach your family how to “read” Notre Dame as a book of stories. Through a series of interactive riddles, you will hear the many tales told by sculptures outside, and by stained-glass windows inside. You’ll also learn to recognize the features of the Gothic style, and find out how and why Notre-Dame was built and restored. Kids learn to navigate with a compass and a floor plan, to make their visit to the cathedral part of their own unique Paris story.

Note: Due to overlap of content, please reserve either “Notre Dame: Stories in Stone” or “If Buildings Could Talk.” Both include a visit to Notre Dame, but “Stories in Stone” is a more in-depth look at the cathedral.

The Hours Flew By!

"Our family tour of the Louvre was without a doubt a major highlight of our trip to Paris. The hours flew by. Our guide was a wonderful teacher and had an easy, relaxed manner that made what can be an overwhelming museum visit, especially with kids, a complete pleasure. When you ask my children (ages 8 & 11) what was the best part of their trip to Paris, they both put the Louvre tour at the very top of their list!"
