This morning we stepped away from the bustling streets of Paris and descended deep into the Catacombs an experience unlike any other we have ever known. As we wound down the cool stone staircases, the noise of the city faded away, replaced by a quiet, reverent stillness. Walking past miles of carefully arranged bones and skulls was not simply spooky tourism; it was a humbling journey through Paris’s forgotten history. Every narrow corridor felt alive with stories, a powerful reminder of life, loss and memory hidden right beneath the city we were exploring above. Slowly moving through the tunnels, we felt completely transported awestruck, sombre and utterly captivated. Booking ahead was essential, and every single step was worth it. This wasn’t just a visit it was the highlight of our Paris adventure so far, one that will stay etched in our minds forever.

The check-in process was very easy. There was a guide at the entrance who helped direct us where to go, and the signs were clear and easy to follow. Once inside, we were provided with headsets for the audio tour, which was one of my favorite parts of the experience. The headset used location services to automatically recognize where we were along the catacombs and provide information about each site as we passed it, so there was no need to manually enter anything. Overall, it was a great tour and a really enjoyable experience. I would definitely book with Headout again!

Well, it was a bit of a challenge at first as our tickets did not have the QR code, but it took one simple phone call to the third-party provider on our receipt to have them sent via WhatsApp and via email to us right away. We got into the event and are glad we made the choice to do so. It was very interesting and educational both for my daughter and myself.

We encourage anyone to take this subterranean tour provided it does not worry you to be deep down under the level of the city's sewers and metro tunnels. It feels like going to a different world and era. It's unimaginable to realize so many humans were exhumed from their graves and so methodically stacked within the miles of tunnels.

It was a moment of contemplation, of connecting with our finitude, of beauty and respect for life and death. Thank you. It was not a tourist activity, but an initiatory journey. Depth and silence. There were few people, which made it possible to truly feel the powerfully moving energy of the place. Gratitude.

Delve into a crucial part of the city’s history as you wander through 2km long underground tunnels, the Catacombs, containing 6 million Parisians’ remains.

From your audio guide available in 4 languages, get to know how the skulls and femurs were artfully organized and more such tidbits.

Fall in step with a local guide and start your walking tour at Boulevard du Montparnasse, a former favorite of artists and literary artists in Paris.

Visit the iconic years-old brothel, Sphinx as well as The Monocle a women-only nightclub, and the street dedicated to the life and work of Josephine Baker.

Fun fact: It may be difficult to believe that the tunnels of the catacombs were once used to grow Paris button mushrooms.

I loved the Catacombs. It was just as much of a must-see as the Eiffel Tower for my first trip to Europe and, inevitably, to Paris! I was very intrigued by it. I took the tour with the audio guide, which taught me a lot, and the music at times made the experience fascinating. Highly recommend!

Paris' Catacombs

Climb down 20 meters below the ground using 130 steps to visit the 2-kilometer-long tunnel arranged in a maze. What makes it unique? The catacombs are the final resting place of millions of Parisians. Venture through the tunnels and learn about the incredible history behind the ossuary and its architecture. The audio guide accompanying you will take you through the journey sharing the story behind why and how it all came to be and explaining what you are seeing.

Montparnasse walking tour

Start your journey on foot, at Boulevard du Montparnasse, the hub of artistic souls in the early 20th century and a charming Parisian neighborhood rich in history. Explore the popular places frequented by Jean Cocteau, Pablo Picasso, and Ernest Hemingway during their time here and get to know fascinating facts from your guide. Rue Delambre is the next stop on your journey. The place has yet again a rich history and the famous Auberge de Venise or the Dingo bar which happened to be the spot you would want to visit if you were an American writer from the ‘Lost Generation. This is in fact the place where Ernest Hemingway met Scott Fitzgerald.

Next up is Place de Josephine Baker where you can learn about the incredible life and work of the first African-American woman to star in a motion picture. See The Sphinx or Le Sphinx which used to be a functional brothel during the 1930s and 40s, preferred by the rich masses. Proceed to The Monocle, the Parisian Lesbian nightclub. It is the symbol of changing times and social acceptance along with reinstating Paris as the romantic city it is. The last stop away from the romantic aura of the city lies Montparnasse Cemetery where the popular men and women from history rest in peace. Some of the graves you can pay a visit to include Charles Baudelaire, Guy de Maupassant, Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and Charles Garnier.
