Our guide Leo was so excited and knowledgable about the catacombs! We were very engaged in the many stories and history of the catacombs and surrounding area. The use of photos on the guide's phone really helped to tie everything together. My only complaint is that Leo arrived about 15 minutes late to the meeting point. After that, everything moved along well.

Your experience

A journey beneath the Parisian streets

Immerse yourself in the eerie subterranean world of the Paris Catacombs. With a local English-speaking guide, you'll bypass the lengthy queues that often form around the block and step directly into the vast network of underground tunnels. This labyrinth beneath the city streets is laden with the bones of 6 million souls, forming an 'Empire of the Dead'. As you navigate the corridors, your guide will unveil the audacious plan of city planners who, in the 18th century, decided to empty overflowing cemeteries, relocating the remains to these abandoned quarries, thus averting citywide disaster.

An intriguing exploration of history

The expert tour allows for a unique experience, taking you off the beaten path and behind locked gates to parts of the Catacombs usually off-limits. You'll marvel at sculptures made from human remains step into a secluded chapel once used for religious ceremonies, and discover the stone carvings of a quarryman who sought to stave off boredom before his untimely demise in a rockfall. Alongside your intimate group of just 6 guests, this tour promises to captivate with its blend of history, artistry, and intrigue, making for an unforgettable journey into the heart of Paris's past.
