On the stone-paved edge of the Île de la Cité, the Seine curves like a slow decision and the guide steps forward with a badge you can't miss. The city’s medieval heart unfolds in three hours: the carved façade of Notre-Dame, the jewel-like walls of Sainte-Chapelle, and the vast vaulted halls of the Conciergerie.
