Book with Leo!!! Must do tour

After reading so many reviews praising Leo’s tours I searched the internet for ages until I found a way to contact her and arrange a tour with her for the catacombs. It was the only tour we booked while in Paris and I’m so glad we chose to do this with Leo because it was fantastic! She is a wonderful guide who knows the catacombs and their history so well and had so much information to share with us. It was so cool to ask her questions about her time exploring the catacombs and it felt very special to be guided through them by one of the very few people who has spent years exploring them. Thank you Leo for a fantastic tour!!!

Fantastic tour!

The tour guide Leo was truly amazing at leading us through the catacombs telling us all these amazing pieces of history and fun facts about each section of the tunnel. The access to the restricted areas was amazing since there weren't any people, and we could really take our time learning about the catacombs. We will remember this tour for many years to come since it was amazing. A big thank you to Leo for being such a spectacular guide!
