With your expert guide leading you through the maze and telling you the stories buried beneath your feet, you'll get a glimpse of a different, more romantic city.

Hidden to many, Père Lachaise is one of the most interesting sites to visit in Paris. Located just a few minutes from the city center, it offers a rare slice of tranquility with beautiful crypts dotted along quiet paths and hidden nooks.
