We had a wonderful tour with Fred (of Fred Walks). Our tour included 2 adults and 2 adolescents. Fred provided a lot of background on French history that was useful throughout our trip (understanding monuments, paintings, etc.), as well as information and stories about specific monuments and "residents" of Pere-Lachaise. He kept us moving, was funny and interesting, and very responsive to questions and interests within the group.
We had an amazing guide! Amazing knowledge. It was absolutely great to go with a guide and learn a lot about the history of the place, french history, the famous people buried there etc. Overall, an amazing experience and would highly recommend it. Much better than just walking around there.
Very nice and entertaining tour, the guide was so knowledgeable and prepared, and I learned so many new tidbits from him - even about people I've previously researched up on. This is my 2nd time on a Pere Lachaise tour, and this was so much better than the one before. Fantastic tour
The cemetery is so large, you really must have a guide. Hamish pointed out things we never would have noticed and told stories to make the experience come alive. Only negative was he walked a bit fast for those of us who wanted to stop and take pics.
Hamish was a very informative guide. The tour was very well paced.
