  • Riddle me this : What is the common point between the Sun King and the Emperor with bees ? it's, it's.... you dry admit it !
  • This will not be the case for your child at the end of this guided family tour of Napoleon at the Musée des Invalides.
  • Between searching for clues and stories of conquests and horses, children discover who Bonaparte was, how he became Napoleon I and what legacy he left us.
  • The a fun and participative visit, accompanied by a guide specializing in Napoleon takes place in the form of a treasure hunt full of enigmas.  
  • Among the riddles, you have to find out who was the "great Vizier" of the "little Emperor"? Which of the dragon or the grenadier breathes fire? Unicorns, bicorns and tricorns, which ones can you still see today? The answers can be found at Musée des Invalidesthrough paintings, sculptures and various objects.

Star Star Star Star Star - Visit to the Invalides with Napoleon
Written by Cécile , 20-04-2024

Hello The visit was very interesting for the children, the guide was at their level. I would like to express my disappointment that this visit is still very expensive, as all participants must pay the same price regardless of age and pay the entrance fee to the Musée des Invalides. I recommend this tour. The booklets handed out at the beginning are not useful.

Star Star Star Star Star - Very nice route, very good guide, but the QUIZZ: VOID from VOID too difficult, unless you take notes
Written by Maria DA COSTA, on 29-02-2024

NO, I won't be recommending this outing to anyone I know because of the QUIZZ we look like idiots if we haven't retained any of the words.... too sophisticated Not enough SNAPSHOT anecdotes to interest the children, who are stressed by the intero at the end of the visit.

Star Star Star Star Star - Awesome!!!

This was our 1st visit with Ludo and Sophie. Visit with my 7.5-year-old son. Our guide, Cyril, really took us on a tour full of humor, games and anecdotes. A wonderful discovery, both of the Invalides and of the Ludo & Sophie organization! We look forward to our next visits, which have already been booked! A big bravo and thank you to Cyril.
