The catacombs are impressive and haunting with lots of history. Very worth the time. Aeon Tours, however, deserves little credit. They are just a clearing house who sends their customers to a subcontracted guide. Not a crime in itself, except for the fact that their only job was to provide communication between clients and guides and manage logistics. Complete failure. Despite multiple emails, then texts, then phone calls getting recorded messages, I guessed at where to meet the guide and happened to find him after asking countless people if they were affiliated with Aeon Tours. Zero value added by this tour company. I hate to think what their cut of the fee was. They deserve nothing.

Our tour of the Paris Catacombs was truly unique - and our guide was entertaining and made it a lot of fun. However, be sure to plan to spend the entire morning - about four hours total - for the tour. Initially, we thought we were signing up for a one-hour tour and were surprised at how long it turned out to be. Also, there are lots of steps - almost 200 down at the start and almost 100 back up at the end so, if you're not fit, this isn't for you. If you can do the stairs, though, it's an experience unlike any other you'll have in Paris!
