Sunday morning mass - We visited the cathedral early on a Sunday morning. No guided tours were available for the only time we had. We arrived at the beginning of an early mass. We were able to see the cathedral in full operation. After the mass we were able to walk through the cathedral and view the classical architecture and the beautiful windows. Well worth the visit.

Some Issues, but Still Glad we did the Tour - It's a pretty good tour of the Cathedral, though as others say, it's confusing to find your way around. The map didn't pinpoint all of the points of interest and the speaker didn't give any detailed orientation directions, just telling you to look at the pictures. The AI voice was really, really annoying and caused us quite a few eyerolls as it mispronunced many words and 'spoke' in an unnatural cadance. It irritated us to support a tour that had been sloppily translated and read by AI so that the tour operators could save money, but at least we didn't pay much for this. Just buy one tour for 2 people and share your headphones. Also, what helped the most was that we had already walked through the Cathedral using Rick Steves guidebook, which had already pointed out the key points of interest, so we could anticipate where this AI tour wanted us to look. The audioguide was still a good supplement, however, because it gave additional information, but glad I had done Rick Steve's better written and explained overview of the site first.

Beautiful cathedral, visit... - Beautiful cathedral, enriching guided tour. Only downside, my phone buggy so I could not reconnect to continue the visit.

Not well made - The concept is good. However, the guide never told you where to be. For example, stand outside and face the door. You had to figure out all this on your own. We barely used the tour after 20 minutes. I only got this because we couldn’t not get on the Viator English-speaking walking tour.

Reims cathedral - Not bad but clearer directions needed. ‘Look up’ is not sufficient. Also, cathedrals are usually covered in scaffolding, which interrupts the flow of the tour. Maybe you could cover this in your intro? Lots of good info though.
