M
Mark – United States

Very informative and learned a lot. The guide was very knowledgeable and nice.

S
Samuel – United States

One of the most beautiful cathedrals I’ve ever seen. The stained glass especially. The museum-provided headsets for listening to the tour were difficult to hear through clearly, this was not improved by the accent (although her English was good!). The fast pass to skip the line, go downstairs to the foundation, and upstairs to the roof saved us atleast an hour. Definitely worth it!
