Felicitas hat die Tour mit spürbarer Begeisterung für die Geschichte des Ortes geführt und mit vielen Anekdoten garniert. Ihr Englisch war sehr gut verständlich.

Andrei was absolutely amazing! I was running late and when I reached out to him he got back to me in an instant. He was so sweet, understanding and helpful , I was extremely grateful to him. During the tour you can see the passion in him when he tells the history of the tombs and the mini stories in between. He organized us among the walls through thin tunnels so that not only so can we hear him better but to also not block the way for others. At the end of the tour he made some recommendations and they were very good. He really does go above and beyond!

This tour exceeded our expectations. The history of the catacombs is very interesting. Our tour guide was fun and entertaining and well versed on the history of the catacombs. He did a great job. Very good tour.

We recently went on a tour of the Catacombs with Angel as our tour guide. At first we were not sure what to expect of this tour as it is an unusual site and not your everyday Louvre or Eiffel Tour type setting. We were a little apprehensive that the site and/or tour maybe "creepy", but Angel made sure to give us context around why the tunnels were built and then later turned into final resting places for millions of Parisians. It was very informative and he did a great job keeping everyone engaged the whole time. It is an important piece of Paris' history that often gets neglected with all else that the city has to offer. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore this part of the city's past.


Highlights

Skip the long lines and enter the Catacombs of Paris, the underground ossuary where about 6 million Parisians rest. In a small group of up to 14 people (6 at some times), walk with an English-speaking guide through tunnels decorated with skulls and bones and hear how the catacombs were built and how remains were moved here in a vast transfer project. Special access also takes you into restricted areas closed to regular visitors, such as an underground chapel decorated with skulls and femurs.


Program

Skip the line and head straight
down into the Paris ossuary

Meet your guide at Café du Rendez-Vous near Place Denfert-Rochereau and walk to the Catacombs of Paris. With a priority entry ticket you skip the long queue and descend 130 steps into the underground cemetery. The tour lasts about 2 hours.

Walk through tunnels lined with bones

Kilometers of underground tunnels hold the skulls and bones of about 6 million people. Each space reveals ever more elaborate and eerie bone arrangements and quarrymen's sculptures, while your guide explains how the catacombs were built and how remains from all over the city were transferred here in a huge project.

Enter areas closed to regular visitors

With special access, a guard opens the doors just for your group and you enter restricted areas not normally open to the public, such as a secret underground chapel decorated with skulls and femurs.

Look back on 2,000 years of Paris history

The Catacombs of Paris hold remains representing about 2,000 years of history, and building the ossuary was a unique civil engineering project that helped shape the modern city. The tour ends at the catacombs exit (1 Av. du Colonel Henri Rol-Tanguy).

※ Group size is up to 14 or 6 people depending on the departure time. Groups of 6 are available at 1:30 PM, 4:30 PM and 5:30 PM.
※ The catacombs may close due to strikes.
