Must see place, guide needed more panache
The catacombs are a must see for a trip to Paris. The tour lead was knowledgeable and friendly. I think a bit of imagination indulging in myths and stories would have added to the experience, our guide was quite clinical about the catacombs. A little more “fun” from a guide can improve the experience.
