    Amazing Day at the Cemetery.

    This was such an amazing experience. Yes, you can do a self guided tour but there is no way that you are going to have the same experience that we had. Our guide Etianne, was so accommodating and so knowledgeable, we were blown away. Highly recommend this adventure if you are in Paris.

    Jamie is an excellent guide for this walk

    A fascinating walk with Jamie who was a passionate and very knowledgeable guide. Would highly recommend if you want to learn the history of this amazing cemetery and its characters.

    Lovely guide and a very interesting tour!

    We had an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and gave us fun and interesting stories as we were guided around. Just the right amount of information as well. Very friendly and pleasant too. We were really glad we decided to do a tour! Definitely advise good footwear as there a lots of cobbled areas and some steps/slopes to climb. Only saw a couple of benches to sit down, so lots of time spent standing too, so it’s a bit of a workout. In hot weather bring some water too. Well worth the trip though!

    Cemetery Tour a Must!

    Our tour guide patiently waited for us to join her. We were 10 minutes late and she met us with a smile. The historic knowledge she shared about the cemetery and the people buried there was fascinating and in depth. We had a great time.

    The very rocky and hilly graveyard

    Not quite as ghostly and scary as I thought it would be, but still very interesting. A lot of walking up and down very rocky and narrow passages. You need to pay attention to where you’re stepping ! We were there for the Jim Morrison grave, but the others were very interesting. also Guide did a great job. A little long winded on some of the graves but still good job.

    Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.

    How much does Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $22 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.

    Is Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 408 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour?

    +

    Around 143 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Paris?

    +

    Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX, Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Paris?

    +

    April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Paris?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
