# Private Père Lachaise Cemetery Walking Tour

**Guidekin's take:** Explore love, sex and death through stories of those buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery on a private tour for your party. A local guide is included; the material can be risqué, though a gentler version can be requested for children. 4.91 from 162 reviews at €85 per person for 1h 30m.

**Private guide?:** Book a private Père Lachaise walk on love, sex and death: 1h 30m at €85 per person, 4.91 from 162 reviews; minimum two guests. Trade-off: Minimum two guests; €85 per person. (last checked September 15, 2026)

## Overview

We tackle sex and death in a fun sophisticated way, the French way, telling true stories you won’t hear on other tours.
Keep your tongue firmly planted in your cheek for this lighthearted yet salacious journey through Père Lachaise Cemetery.
This is not your average walking tour, but then again, love in the City of Love is anything but ordinary. Your local Parisian guide will take you through the sexy histories of the people who lie buried here. While their tombs may be cold, their love affairs are anything but.
It’s interactive, too — a little rubbing, a little kissing — at the appropriate graves, of course! We’ll share gossip known only to locals, and you’ll leave understanding why topics like death and sex aren’t taboo in France.
Immerse yourself in the culture. Learn the history. Arouse your senses. Your guide can make your experience PG-13 or take it all the way to R-rated, depending on the group. Each tour is handled with class in true Parisian style — risqué but never raunchy.
