Paris Catacombs Tour with Restricted Areas

The Paris Catacombs release only a limited number of tickets each day, making them one of the hardest sites in the city to enter. This tour solves that with pre-reserved timed entry, so you can head inside without a worry.

An expert, English-speaking guide leads the way through a labyrinth of bone-lined tunnels, sharing the dark history of how forgotten limestone quarries became the resting place for millions of Parisians.

Along the route, walk past walls of skulls and femurs arranged into crosses and archways, and you stand before the Barrel of Passion in the Crypt of Passion.

The highlight is privileged access to two restricted chambers, closed to the general public, where a guard unlocks the iron gates for your small group.

With reserved entry, eerie legends, and rooms most visitors never see, this is one of the most memorable ways to experience underground Paris.
