Paris: Haunted Père Lachaise Cemetery Guided Tour

4.6 (4326 verified reviews)

Who This Tour Suits

The best-selling tour of the cemetery, and the one to book if you want the famous graves with a story attached. Your guide takes you to the well-known tombs, Jim Morrison’s among them, and tells the legends Paris attaches to the hill: Allan Kardec and the Spiritists, the strange cults, the spirits said to walk the paths.

It runs in daylight, about two hours, in English or French, rain or shine. The operator calls the route moderately demanding, with uphill paths, and lists it as unsuitable for people with mobility impairments and for people over 70. Reviewers name their guides and praise the anecdotes; one says a guide learned all 44 first names in the group.

Prices from $24.72 a person, with free cancellation up to 24 hours before (as listed in October 2026). For the legends in detail, read the haunted tour guide.
