This tour was awesome (and much appreciated during this crazy historic heat wave). We stayed cool and enjoyed the location based prompted tour. Our kids really enjoyed it and the headphones were perfect for all of us. I wouldn't hestiate to do the audio tour because it's so good. The only thing that was a little annoying was the ticket redemption. Thankfully the workers at the Catacombs knew exactly how to find the right tickets from Headout. Also, the boat tour was a great and super easy addition. The tour was great and we would have enjoyed the boat much more if it weren't so hot on the roof (there's no shade, but there is an interior seating area that may be cooler). If you see people selling bottles of water out of coolers before you get on the boat, buy some, you'll thank your future self!

The Catacombs were incredible, an absolute must see. The boat tour was interesting enough! Our boat wasn't too crowded and the information was interesting, the automatic settings didn't quite work so we had to figure out when to press next ourselves most of the time but it was perfectly fine overall :) We went for an earlier slot- around 12 for the river cruise, and then much later for the catacombs at 5!

The visit to the catacombs was well organized. The Seine river cruise was also very nice. Unfortunately, first of all, your booking doesn’t mention that the river cruise can be taken on a separate day. Second, we didn’t have a ticket for the river cruise. We had to order it over the phone.

Excellent audio led tour. Quality of headphones was superb. Crowds were well spaced to allow for a comfortable tour. Cruise was not overloaded and plenty of opportunity to sit by a window. Would recommend
