Marquis De Lafayette’s burial site
Chris_W, Jul 2024
This was a great experience to learn about the period of terror and the use of the guillotine. Although it is a walking tour, the terrain is mostly flat and over minimal distances. If you are an American history buff and appreciate the importance of Lafayette’s involvement in the American Revolution, then this is a perfect tour for you. Milan is extremely knowledgeable and the tour is very interactive with Q&A.
Fantastic tour!

Milan was gracious, enthusiastic and so very well-informed. I learned things that I will take home to the U.S to share with everyone. I highly recommend him for any tours! A highlight of my visit!
I went to see Lafayette but learned so much more…

The tour was fantastic! Milan was a great guide and I learned so much about the French Revolution and the Picpus Cemetery. Of course the highlight was seeing the grave of General Lafayette. The big surprise was how beautiful the grounds of the cemetery are - trees, flowers, chickens, beautiful birds. I had intended to visit the cemetery myself but I am so glad I booked the tour. Milan added so much to the experience with his knowledge and stories. He also knows the people that run the cemetery so I felt like I had a VIP experience! Having booked other tours in Paris, this one was an incredible value for money and so unique. I would recommend this tour and would not hesitate to book other tours with this group.
Perfection!

Milan did this tour for us and it was phenomenal! It was a surprise for my husband on our 30th wedding anniversary. Milan kept the topic of the tour secret until the reveal at Lafayette’s grave. Milan is super knowledgeable, informative and really good company. I could not recommend this more!!
Lafayette as you won't find him anywhere else.

My son is a Lafayette fan and we booked this tour on our first day in Paris - jetlagged after getting off the plane from the States 4 hours prior. The walking did us good, and having Milan as a guide really made all the difference. Milan is the insiders insider when it comes to Lafayette (and more) and it made all the difference. Not too much walking - and there was a plan with things explained and shown on our way to Lafayette's grave. Milan knows all the nuns at the convent next door and because of this we talked to one of them and were invited to see where she lives and she let us in the church which because of the day/time was closed to the public at that time. Really great way to start our Paris vacation. Thank you.
