Andrea was awesome! She...

Andrea was awesome! She is super friendly and knowledgeable about the cemetery and it's inhabitants. She totally went out of her way to find out where Marcel Marceau was burried (he wasn't on the original tour) and added his grave site for me. I highly recommend her and this tour!

Paris was extremely hot...

Paris was extremely hot when we were here and it felt great down there. All paved so any shoes you’re comfortable walking in are fine. We weren’t cold and despite the online warnings about dress code enforcement we didn’t have that experience; shorts and spaghetti strap tanks were worn. It was very interesting. Lots of stairs at the beginning and end

Pretty cool tour

We had a really good tour. I unfortunately cannot recall our tour guides name but he was really informative and we loved hearing all the behind the scene stories . It was cold and rainy the day we went but he made the best of it for us. The cemetery was super cool and we enjoy the history that was incorporated with the eerie. If you’re into Off the beaten path kind of cool then don’t miss this tour!
