“make sure you book reservation yourself online. it's available for only the future 7days. We forgot to do it. So we paid this premium price to get in for the same day. we are not going back to Paris anytime soon so this was one of the tour we really wanted. it still worth the money for this reason. otherwise diy ahead only cost you €32 on the official website. cruise worth maybe €25. so we paid double for our own mistake. catacombs is definitely something you should go see and experience.”

The explanation of why and how the skeletons arrived there make the experience really beautiful. Nothing to get “creeped” for the kids.”
