Hugo was extremely knowledgeable around the history of the cemetery and many of the people laid to rest there. His tour was fun , enlightening and a great learning tool for those looking for a deeper connection to the past. Absolutely wonderful!

Great tour guide

I learned so much history and perspective from our guide. I had no idea that so much was contained in this cemetery. Our guide knew everything about French history. It was very informative and of the tours we took in Paris it was the best.

worth a visit

Lucia was an abolutely wonderful tour guide. She is extremely knowledgeable about the cemetery and she gave us a wealth of information about each tomb or grave we visited, the history of the cemetery and tied all of this with the culture, economics, and political situation in France. She took us to all the places we wanted to see, added some that we were not aware of, and shared with us the memorials for the Holocaust. We would highly recommend as this tour company and their guides are outstanding.
