Fun and fascinating tour of Paris underground history

Published on Dec, 2024

Eerie yet fascinating somber history. Audio tours with hand held devices provided flexible options for touring the catacombs.

An unexpected wonderful experience

Published on Mar, 2023

We had heard about this cemetery from family prior to our Paris trip and our hotel happened to be next door so we felt it worth a visit. We decided to download an audio guide which we found online for 5 euro which guided us around 20 famous graves, explaining their history and importance. The cemetery is fascinating and very large! We walked around 4km in all and only saw a fraction of what was on offer. Beautiful and tranquil place, well worth the 3 hours of time out. Some graves require climbing stairs and uneven ground so comfy shoes are a must. Highly recommend

Excellent way to explore the cemetery at your own pace, on your own time!
