Southern Charm Meets Paris Stonework: Becky’s Père‑Lachaise Tour

Our Père‑Lachaise tour with Becky was exceptional. As a fellow cemetery guide, I felt an instant kinship with her—she brings a rare blend of knowledge, Southern warmth, and decades‑deep Paris insight that makes every story land just right. She knows the residents of Père‑Lachaise like old friends and introduces them with charm, humor, and genuine affection. The crepes afterward were the cherry on top. Absolutely recommend this tour!

We had a tour with just...

We had a tour with just us and our guide Becky. She was the BEST!! People wonder why I like to tour cemeteries but there is so much history. We saw Edith Piaf’s sight, Oscar Wilde, and of course Jim Morrison, but we also learned a lot of French history as told about the various tombs.

Unexpected experience

Père Lachaise was an unexpected experience. Who would’ve thought that a cemetery would be my favorite tour in Paris next to Giverny. A peaceful stroll full of historical famous people buried here whose stories were brought to life by our guide Becky. She was phenomenal. A fantastic storyteller and a great personality. Highly recommend this tour. Think beyond « cemetery tour »

Stories among the stones

Our tour of Père Lachaise with Benedicte was truly captivating. From start to finish, she brought the cemetery to life—blending stories of its famous residents with the rich political and social history of Paris. Her warmth and storytelling made the experience unforgettable, and ending with crepes was an especially sweet touch. Highly recommended.
