About this activity
Meeting outside of the entrance of the Catacombs, your guide will provide you with a headset and a brief explanation of the history of the Catacombs. We will then descend the 137 steps to begin the tour, which lasts approximately 1.5 hours. Throughout the duration of the tour, you will have the opportunity to take pictures and ask questions as your guide summarizes the Catacombs' onset, their transition into a modern cemetery, and their appeal today. At the exit, there are 87 steps, so unfortunately, this activity is not suitable for guests in wheelchairs.
Please note that restrooms and coat checks are not available, and the temperature underground is typically 14°C/57°F. Anyone susceptible to claustrophobia or cardiac or respiratory weakness are strongly discouraged to visit the Catacombs. In addition, children are not advised to participate in this tour. Please arrive 15 minutes early to ensure your skip-the-line access. We guarantee groups of 20 guests or less.

Fantastic tour. our tour guide Hellen was so knowledgeable. we enjoyed Catacombs. Oxana Australia
Awesome tour .... definitely a highlight of my visit to Paris! Highly recommended .....
I really enjoyed seeing this and our guide was fantastic
The Paris Catacombs are a must-see attraction i believe. Very unusual and an interesting yet dark part of Paris's history. The catacombs cover a huge part of underground Paris. And this is the only authorized section that is legally visited by the public. Tourists, with the price of admission, can walk thru the catacombs on their own which I first did or pay for a tour guide which I just did. Of course the paid tour was much more interesting and informative, but fairly expensive. The first time I waited in a long live, this time I showed up just before the tour was to begin and just walked in ahead of the long line.
