  • Experience one of the most remarkable historical sites in the world, with a two-hour guided tour around the spectacularly creepy Catacombs of Paris
  • Follow your guide through the 'Empire of Death' and discover some of the 6 million-plus human skeletons that line 200 miles of underground tunnels
  • Access off-limits areas where regular tickets don't allow you to go, and see incredible sculptures that were chiseled out of the rock during the Catacombs' construction

The City of Light has a dark side – 65 feet beneath the charming tree-lined boulevards and honey-colored architecture, the Catacombs of Paris lurk in the shadows.

Home to over 6 million human skeletons (roughly 3 times the living population of Paris!) arranged neatly along 200 miles of tunnels, this grim underworld offers a bone-chilling glimpse into the past.

Summon your courage and plumb the macabre depths on a guided tour of this creepy necropolis. Just don't forget to look behind you!

René, our tour guide was wonderful, informative and personable. We knew nothing of the history of the catacombs prior to this visit and left filled with new appreciation and reverence.
