You’ll be glad you booked a tour with Victoria

Victoria is FANTASTIC!!! We would not have gotten nearly as much out of our pilgrimage to Chartres had it not been for the tour with her. She was engaging and kept the kids interested while teaching us so much. On top of it all, she’s a lovely person and really was the highlight of our time in Chartres.

Victoria told us so many stories!!! She was a lovely woman who loves Chartres cathedral. The 4 of us loved it.

My wife was very keen on seeing the Notre Dame Cathedral at Chartres, and that begged having a private tour. Victoria was terrific. Besides being a delightful person, and her English being flawless, she gave us a wonderful education about the church, its famous stained glass and labyrinth, and its precious relic, Mary's cloak. Well worth the money. Whatever the highest recommendation is, it applies to Victoria.
An Amazing 2 Hours!

Victoria spent 2 hours teaching us about the intricacies and beauty of Chartres Cathedral and it was a fantastic way to experience this beautiful UNESCO site. Her knowledge, humor and approach added to this great visit
Excellent Guide for an Informative and Fun Visit to Chartres Cathedral
Valerie_E, Dec 2024
Victoria was an excellent guide for my afternoon trip to Chartres from Paris. She is extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the Cathedral, and I learned a lot about the history of the Cathedral as a pilgrimage site, and also details on how to "read" stained glass. She was open to questions and very informative and fun! She pointed out that my visit was on the first day of the opening of the labyrinth, and explained the significance and process of walking it (which I did after our two hours together was over).
There is so much more to see and learn about this fascinating building, I hope to return in the future and will certainly book with Victoria again.
