A 90-minute guided walk through Rouen’s Joan of Arc sites, Gros-Horloge clock, cathedral towers, and Martainville with local guide Elodie.
“Elodie is an excellent guide, very enthusiastic, and knowledgeable.”
Self-guided Rouen audio city tour from Rouen Tourisme, covering Gros-Horloge, Notre-Dame Cathedral, and Palais de Justice in 2 hours.
“Some of the attractions were closed. The audio guide is a beginning-to-end chronological story (one then two then three etc) but when you have to skip or hop over closed events the portable audio guide, and the small useless map made this a waste of $60. If they were honest they would advertise, “Warning! Caution! The Most Important Exhibits in the Joan of Arc Tour are Closed on Monday!” The workers in the tourist office just had a giggle about it when I arrived. Why not tell us in advance? Don’t buy this useless product.”
Small-group guided walk through Rouen’s cathedral façade, Gothic abbey, ossuary, Gros-Horloge and Joan of Arc square, in English.

A 2-hour small-group guided walk through Rouen’s cathedral and secrets, from Joan of Arc to Vikings and Romans with local guide Ludovic.
“Ludovic’s tour is everything his description promises—and then some! You can instantly tell how much he loves Rouen and takes pride in sharing its history, culture, and hidden corners. His storytelling, humor, and interactive style make every moment engaging and memorable. It’s not just a tour—it’s an experience that brings Rouen to life through his passion and knowledge. Ludovic has an incredible way of connecting with people and making you feel like a welcomed guest rather than a tourist. You’ll walk away with a deep appreciation for the city, its legends, and its beauty. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rouen—it’s the highlight of our trip!”
Official 2-hour Rouen tour by the Tourist Office, covering Notre-Dame, the Gros Horloge, Joan of Arc sites, and more in small groups.
“The guide provided lots of history and detail including many exact dates. Pacing was good, with some times to sit down. Her accent was a little hard to follow, requiring concentration on what she was saying, but I got 95 percent of her content. She was a little bashful and darted off at the end without giving an opportunity to receive a deserved tip.”
