Stade de France, need to see.
The scale of the stadium & the walk onto the pitch from change rooms, I won't forget. Our guide was excellent
via Viator
Great tour!
We visited for the stadium tour which was super cool! The pictures of the pitch area was being prepared for a concert which was also really cool to see upfront. You get full access to where VIPs would sit during games and the players dressing rooms where they also warm up. For me the best part was walking out through the tunnel onto the pitch, it’s a full player experience (minus the crowd)! Would love to watch a game here soon as I know the atmosphere would be unreal! I love how the stadium is circular compared to lots of other venues which makes it look unique.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your fantastic feedback — your enthusiasm really comes through! Just to clarify: the tour provides access to the edge of the pitch, but not onto the grass itself. We’re delighted you enjoyed the player-style immersion and the incredible atmosphere of the stadium.

Average stadium but very good guide
Was ok tour. Stadium is abit dated throughout. Not as wow factor as camp nou (Barcelona). The guide was really good, she was funny and very imformative. Also would recommend taxi there and back straight outside ground (use Bolt). Wouldn’t recommend walking about the area around Saint Denis.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the quality of our guide – we’re glad you enjoyed her explanations. The Stade de France is indeed unique since its construction, even if it feels different compared to other stadiums like Camp Nou. We understand that the surrounding area may not be the most attractive, which is why we recommend focusing on the stadium experience itself.

Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour cost?
+
Prices start at €19 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 311 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour?
+
Around 109 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Stade de France: Behind the Scenes Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
