Young visitors will be amazed by the ethnobotanical garden, which showcases useful plants and how humans use them daily. Our guides will point out species dating back to the dinosaur era in the Stegosaurus Garden and discuss meteorites while observing a rock from the world’s largest known crater.

Exploring Parisian Heritage

Our tour of Père Lachaise Cemetery, which attracts 2 million visitors annually, is a fascinating open-air museum on the history of Paris. You’ll visit the graves of Edith Piaf, Oscar Wilde, La Fontaine, and Molière. The cemetery is also a place of memory for major wars, with over 1,300 works, some created by renowned artists.

You can also explore Haussmannian Paris’s transformations, especially at Parc des Buttes Chaumont, which blends an English garden style with neoclassical elements to create one of Paris’s most bucolic spots.

For Nature Lovers

At Père Lachaise, gardeners maintain the site without herbicides, giving the cemetery a romantic feel where nature thrives. Parc des Buttes Chaumont offers a festive atmosphere with guinguettes like Rosa Bonheur, along with sports activities and picnic spots for families. The Jardin des Plantes also attracts animal lovers with its menagerie and ecological garden.
