Staring a Seine cruise late Friday afternoon. Is it crazy to try to see ND earlier that day? I’ve seen the schedule of services, just wondering how busy it is o this day along with possible delays getting to the port.

Due to the special services in addition to the Veneration of the Crown of Thorns from 10 am to 5 pm, I would expect the Cathedral to be more crowded with worshippers than usual. Keep in mind as a tourist that you will not be able to rent the Audio Guide since the shop will be closed.
Notre Dame does have capacity limits. I would think that worshippers would take priority over tourists on Good Friday. So expect waits longer than usual.
Personally. I would choose another time to visit Notre Dame if I wasn't attending as a worshipper.
