Overview

The Opera Garnier is maybe the most beautiful building in Paris that’s why it’s also called the Palais Garnier.
I’m happy to offer you the possibility to discover and enjoy the beauty of this 19 th century building not simply as a guided tour but as a real travel in time.
Charles Garnier, the architect put all his talent to creat a Unique style building starting with the 1860s.
But which one?

Thé Palais Garnier is not just an Opera House, it’s a temple for the Lyric Arts. Do you know the Unique style is it?
Do you know what’s under the stage of the Opera?
The building hides a rich history and very interesting stories and anecdotes. Visiting the Palais Garnier i also offer you the possibility to travel in time and feel as parisien of the 1870s period when the Opera Garnier was more a stage for Parisiens than artists.
Come with me on a private tour and learn everything about this beautiful Opera House, its history and crusty stories. (Tickets not included-to refund on the tour day)

    Palais Garnier

    We start this Private Tour in front of the Opera house Garinier, because the building speaks already from outside about the beauty you can discover inside. 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. You will follow me in your lodge from which you will admire the Auditorium, its beautiful ceilings painted by Chagall, and of course meet the Fantôme de l'Opera. We will continue in the divers galeries, richly decorated salons, and the splendid Grand Foyer. When you will leave the tour you will feel that intense travel in time this beautiful monument permits you to experience.

Fantastic guide and must visit site in Paris whether you are an Opera fan or not.

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.

Wonderful tour of Opera Garnier & Outstanding Guide!

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!
