I know (of) someone who got given access to the inaccessible parts of the Paris catacombs in exactly the way you describe — people within the community decided he was trustworthy enough to be taken with them into various secret underground places. But even he knew he wasn't being shown the full extent of what existed.
When it comes to Lupin, I just have to handwave this sort of thing as Assane being so lovely and charming that everyone just does what he wants, even when he was a teenager.
