After the security control we start our visit under the Rotonda: the entrance for the most prestigious spectators of the Opera Shows in Palais Garnier. During this visit i will make you fell as real guests of the Opera Garnier in the 19th century. As those Parisiens you will step on the opulent Grand Staircase blown away by its decor.

Beautiful opera house! We had a great tour guide with tons of knowledge. I would highly recommend!
The only way to properly see the Garnier Opera House is with a private guided tour, and our guide, Lulianna was excellent!
The best tour I've ever taken! Luliana was en exceptional guide and made the Paris Opera House come to life.
Jean was wonderful, great knowledge, and full of interesting stories. Very personable and happy to chat. Appreciate it. Steve, Jackie & Jessica
This was a place we didn't get to visit during our last visit to Paris and we absolutely didn't want to miss. Wow, and what a fantastic place. Even better our guide was super knowledgeable and gave us a wonderful in-depth tour of the Opera. There is no way we would have gotten as much out of this experience without her expertise. This was a do not miss experience.
Iuliana, our guide, was absolutely wonderful! Her knowledge of Opera Garnier is impressive. She brought the historic and gorgeous building to life! Iuliana shared insightful stories of the architect & how he won the contract to build the opera house, what life was like for the opera goers of high society when the building opened & the significance of the innovations in the design & construction. We learned a lot & can't say enough good things about Iuliana as a guide & highly recommend this tour!
Our awesome guide, Luliana, took us back in time to admire and understand the architecture, design, and social norms of 1889 Paris. Tour was excellent. Opera Garnier is spectacular…one of the best tours of our trip. Don’t miss this tour and travel through time with Luliana.
The tour, in it’s entirety, was exceptional! Our private guide, Luliana, wove her vast knowledge of the venue with charming stories of the ‘parade society’ of Paris. Highly recommend the tour. It was on the top of my Paris bucket list and met every expectation I had. Thank you, Luliana🌻
Iuliana is an excellent guide. She is knowledgeable and works hard to ensure you understand.. Viator has a great guide in Iuliana. Iuliana =, thank you for your wonderful tour. You are SUPER!
Juliana was fabulous!! Her communication was clear, on time and made me feel verybconfident about the booking. So knowledgable about the opera house, friendly, kind, patient, truly a wonderful experience. I highly recommend her. She is an official tour guide and can take you to many other sights. The opera house is incredible. An absolute must-see.
I booked this tour although I previously visited Opera Garnier and I didn’t had to many expectations. But silly me I was mistaken. Iuliana explained everything so interesting, she gave so many cultural and architectural details about the building, and about the architect Garnier, about the sculptures. Now, Palais Garnier is one of my fav places in Paris. When I will visit Paris with my family, for sure I will book again this tour with Iuliana.
Excellent private tours with Iuliana! We have spend with her 4 Days in a row, we wanted to rediscover PARIS through Iuliana's eyes. She put together a custom tour for us and it was fantastic! An excellent tour with more than just an overview of PARIS. We visited the Tour Eiffel by night, then Versailles, Louvre, and a city tour. Iuliana is extremely knowledgeable, has numerous behind the scenes stories and plenty of suggestions to make each tour an unique and unforgettable experience. Iuliana is an incredibly knowledgable guide and clearly passionate about PARIS and its history. She was a joy to be with throughout this days. We enjoyed it so much, that we booked a private tour the next day for the Opera Garnier. As expected, it was a great tour too. Curiously I am a well documented person about art and architecture, but Iuliana suprised me with very detail or story she brought in every step we made through the building. With a great mix of history, local knowledge and personal stories to keep our group entertained and engaged throughout, she’s a great storyteller! We’ve been engaged and we traveled in time so beautifully! Can’t recommend enough. Highly recommend!!!
Top-notch guide, perfect, passionate, highly recommended. Thank you, Antoine
We'd like to thank our Virginia guide. We enjoyed the 1h30 visit with him. We were a small group of 5. She is passionate and exciting. Her way of telling the story of opera is warm, lively, she takes us back in time and stimulates our desire for discoveries. Thank you Virginie 🙂
Thanks to Rita our guide who knows all the secrets of the place. Nice visit worth it. Thanks again. I highly recommend
