Les Catacombes du Paris: Expedition Planned

I am travelling to Paris this spring and I would like to visit the non-sanctioned underground portions of Paris. I have found maps and photos and have a rough route planned, but I'm hoping to find an experienced Parisian who will help me navigate. Anybody like that here?

Thanks,
-G

Good luck. And don't get lost there. They are not modern tunels they are catacombs. And plans....where did you get it?. I hope they are real plans.

No they won't. The French don't get half the Quebec expressions, and once they notice you have an accent they're patronizing. On top of that they use bastardized Frenglish idioms that make me ashamed. And I live in a bilingual country, so...

As for the catacombs: you can get a legal tour inside, but the fun is departing from the group and going into the forbidden areas. Of course this entails risk of getting lost, so maps are a big plus. Resist the temptation to steal a femur like my friend's dad, though.

AleX: I found the plans on the internet. I have pages and pages of them. I will probably just make small forays into each entrance, unless I find an experienced guide.

Agent.Smith!: I speak a little French, but I'm most interested in finding a guide, like the story on this site.

Anybody?!!

Let me know if you find a guide, I'm interested 'seriously' in going to explore the catacombs myself.

To Tux: A femur is the large bone in your upper leg, one of the biggest bones in the human body.

And a femur makes a great freaking mantelpiece. It's very feng shui or whatever. And creepy too.

I'll probably never do it. I'll probably be poor the rest of my life. but 2 of my top fantasy vacations are Paris catacombs and the Austrailian underground.

Drains, tunnels, bridges and caves mostly.

This ain't the land of the free. This ain't the home of the brave. -accidentally misquoted MDC...leaving it this way on purpose
