Excellent tour of Reims Cathedral

We had an excellent tour of the Reims Cathedral with Andre. He is extremely knowledgable and has a way of presenting information that flows smoothly, is very engaging and hits key points. He also speaks English beautifully. It was a terrific tour and we highly recommend Andre as a guide.

Your recommendation means a great deal to us. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and hope to welcome you on another tour in the future."

Church visit instead of city walk.

A great tour by a very knowledgeable guide. Only we had booked a city walk and it was a tour of the cathedral. Because it was so hot, we didn't mind, but it was strange.

Operator response

We're glad you had a great experience with such a knowledgeable guide, and that even with the city change and the heat, you still found the tour worthwhile. We hope to welcome you on another tour in the future!

Ninety minutes, very well-spent

This was a wonderful experience. We got a very good introduction to the Cathedral — exterior and interior — and got a good sense of the city center as well. It was ninety minutes very well spent.

Too expensive for 1 hour tour

Circular walk Reims good guide. Late arrival. We only saw the cathedral and didn't have time to walk through the city with the guide. Price is way too high. Not recommended

bad experience with VIATOR, private walk Reims

The English speaking guide was very professional and told us a lot about the basilica. Due to poor communication with the client VIATOR UK London, the guide was late with us and we did not have time to take a walk through the city. Then 268.74 for a private guide is very expensive. I will not recommend VIATOR for a private walk through Reims.

Operator response

The guide's professionalism is exactly what we aim for. While timing issues related to third-party coordination are outside our control, we always strive for clear communication. Our pricing reflects licensed guidance and personalized service. Your input is noted as we continue to refine our offerings.

The beautiful city of Reims

We had a lovely day with Pauline in Reims. She has an incredible depth of knowledge about the city and its rich history. We started in the cathedral at the heart of the city and learned so much about the region and the people. We have such an appreciation of this wonderful city thanks to Pauline. Highly recommend this tour and guide.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're pleased to hear that Pauline's knowledge and guidance added so much depth to your visit in Reims. The cathedral is a remarkable place to begin exploring the city, and it's great to know the tour helped you connect with the region and its stories. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again on another tour.
