Cara was an exceptional guide! She gave us the freedom to explore the place on our own, shared some very interesting stories with us, and the puzzles were neither too hard nor too easy. I highly recommend her!

This was an amazing tour! We loved learning about the history of not only Paris but as well as the individuals buried there in the graveyard. Our host was amazing in helping us with every question we had as well as when struggling with clues. The adventure was one of our family's highlights for our trip to Paris.

A fun and enriching experience with a very friendly guide who took us to parts of the cemetery that not everyone knows about. I highly recommend it.
