Pere-Lachaise

Discover one of Paris’ most beautiful and unexpected sites on this 2.5-hour, small-group walking tour. Rendezvous with your guide just prior to 2 pm at the cemetery gates and set off to discover the many charms and hidden corners of Père Lachaise. Originally founded in 1804, Père Lachaise has since grown in size to become the largest cemetery in Paris. It’s also home to no shortage of famous residents. Follow your guide to the final resting places of dozens of luminaries, including Edith Piaf, Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, Chopin, Balzac, and Maria Callas. Visit memorials to the Holocaust and various wars, and learn about the little-known popular uprising, the Paris Commune, which occurred within the cemetery’s walls. This tour accommodates a maximum of 8 visitors, ensuring a personalized experience.
