5.0Saeed was great and the tour was really interesting. Having a guide to explain Parisian history made all the difference as it really is intertwined in the history of the catacombs. I would definitely recommend going with Saeed if given the chance
Sam is amazing and the catacombs were too!

5.0This was an excellent tour but what made it so good was Sam, our guide! She was so knowledgeable but also reverent. Sam had a way of presenting history that was so effortless and engaging. Highly recommend this tour. I would do it again for sure!
