I had a great experience with my guide Saeed! He was extremely knowledgeable not just regarding the Catacombs but Paris as a whole. Would recommend!

The guide was a little unsure of historical details and relied on the wow factor of the skeletal remains and some stone sculpture in the catecombs. I expected a detailed serious history journey for €158. I did not receive that but received instead a learnt off script. Answers of questions outside of that script were unsatisfactory.
