Highly recommend this tour - Francois was really nice, and very knowledgeable about the history of the Cemetery and its occupants. We learned a lot. The tour was semi-private, but we were the only 2 which was great.

Amazing Pere Lachaise tour with Francois! - This tour was one of the best tours we have ever been on. It was so enjoyable listening to Francois tell the stories of the famous Pere Lachaise cemetery.

We highly recommend this tour and Francois we thank you for a wonderful tour and visit, Take care!

Lively cemetery visit - We had a super visit to Père Lachaise this afternoon! Our guide, Hugo, was really knowledgeable and told wonderful stories. He added life to the cemetery. He shared French and Parisian history as well as anecdotes about the people whose graves we saw. Our group of 6 was just the right size for interaction and ease of staying together.

Great experience - Hugo was an outstanding tour guide. He knew the cemetery well and was full of interesting anecdotes about the people buried there. He answered all of our question with wit and humor. The sprawling nature of Pere Lachaise makes it very difficult to navigate without an expert guide like Hugo. I would highly recommend him and this tour to anyone visiting Paris.

Beautiful place and fine guide - Pere Lachaise is a beautiful place. Our guide, Tamari, knew a lot to tell and did so with great enthusiasm and humour. The tour lasted 2,5 hours and then you haven't seen everything, so worth repeating!
