Uncover the best of Père Lachaise Cemetery the local Way

"Our tour with Ana exceeded all our expectations. Ana was friendly, professional and spared no trouble. The tour was personal and informative and Ana shared interesting information about the history of Paris speaking through the Pere-Lachaise inhabitants' last resting places. The tour was 'n highlight of our trip and a must see for every visitor who is interested in history and art and the past of prominent and not so prominent Parisiens. Thank you Ana, we appreciate it."

"Ana takes you on a wonderful journey through Pere LaChaise. Her knowledge and storytelling of the famous and not so famous is fantastic We so enjoyed our morning "

"You can get a free map of Père-Lachaise at the main entrance and walk around in circles looking for a particular grave OR you can have the delightful Ana take you around, entrancing you with stories and showing you the glory of this historical cemetery. "

"If all you want is to see Jim Morrison and a few other famous people, Ana’s tour does that but so much more. Ana spent time showing the history and development of the place along with the why’s that are so important. Yes, you get to see Jim Morrison’s grave, but the tour is a real education from start to finish. The tour is long for some people and there is a lot of walking so consider that when booking. But it is very worth it. "

"We really enjoyed our tour with Ana. She shared her love of exploring the cemetery and collection of stories about the "residents" and the history of the park. Seeing the iconic grave sites and the beautiful setting was a highlight of our trip to Paris!"

"Ana was a fabulous tour guide. Despite the fact that we were an hour late, she told us that she would show us as much as possible before the cemetery closed. She spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable. In fact, we managed to complete the tour, which was informative and interesting. Can't imagine how we would have found any of the more famous resting places without Ana's knowledge. Would recommend highly."

"Ana had lots of fascinating stories about the inhabitants of Pere Lachaise,and how they intertwined with the history of Paris and France. She guided us expertly thru the enormous cemetery, accommodating our wishes and interests. Don’t go without her!!"

"Ana was such a wonderful guide: friendly and full of knowledge. Our experience at Père-Lachaise would have been much less interesting and dynamic if we were trying to do it alone. It’s a massive place with many interesting residents, and Ana made it, dare I say, come alive for us. We were grateful for her expertise and her obvious interest in her subject matter, and would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to understand more about the cemetary and its history. Thanks a million for everything, Ana! "

"Despite my husband and I having been to Père Lachaise many years ago, neither of us were able to do justice to the wonderful accounts Ana had spent painstaking time researching on our behalf as per our personal interests. From the moment we met Ana, we felt an immediate connection and began conversing like long lost friends. Ana’s knowledge, obvious intelligence with attention to detail, her passion for her work and undivided attention for her visitors made this experience unique for both of us."

"We are so delighted that we chose to take a private tour of Père Lachaise with Ana. A tour is definitely the way to go, and Ana was the perfect tour guide. She was clear, energetic, knowledgeable, interesting, and thoughtful, and we just loved her personality. We could tell what a really nice person she is, and that made us feel as though we were visiting the cemetery with a very well-informed friend. She had great stories to tell, and she brought along her iPad, so we could see pictures of the places, people, and paintings that she referred to. We can’t recommend this tour highly enough."
