Must Do...with Autur!
Jack_R, Mar 2023
Our tour guide, Autur was fabulous. Wine and cheese first stop at market, jam tasting, and the falafel...all very good experiences. Excellent tour guide.
Nice but not quite as advertised
LeighAnn_A, Mar 2023
Our guide was very nice. The 5 shops we visited and the food we tasted : cheese, cream puffs, jam, falafel and a charcuterie plate in a bistro— were all good. The advertisement was for 8-10 shops so not quite what is advertised. I enjoyed it, but I have found better value in other foodie tours and so would hesitate to recommend this one to others.
Tasty tour of Le Marais!

Small group and knowledgable guide made the experience super fun for us! A great way to see the city, especially if you have a sweet tooth.

Our first time in Paris. The food was delicious, the history was interesting, and Eleanor, our tour guide, was a delight!!
Marais: Well worth it!
Tim_O, Mar 2023
Nicolas Ferrand is the kindest, most enthusiastic and well informed tour guide you could ask for. He made the entire tour come alive on an enjoyable, tasty Saturday morning tour of the Marais.
Wonderful Way to Discover Le Marais
Debra_S, Mar 2023
We had a wonderful time with Bart (I cannot spell his name in French)! He took us from the oldest market where we tried cheese and wine to crème puffs to fancy jams to falafel! We ended up in a quaint bistro with charcuterie and more wine. Bart was so knowledgeable about the area because he grew up in LeMarais. He had a wonderful sense of humor and we left full of wonderful food and wine and some little history of the area, too. Thank you, Bart! We throughly enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend this tour.

Amanda_C, Mar 2023
Our guide, Bart, was awesome! He told us the history of the area while showing us around and stopping at multiple food places. We enjoyed cheese with wine and bread, cream puffs, jam, falafel then ended with charcuterie boards (meat and cheese with wine and bread) at a restaurant where we were able to sit and talk to each other to end the evening. Excellent experience. Highly recommend.

We had such a good time! Eleanor, our guide was brilliant, with bags of knowledge about the history of the district and the food we were eating. It was the first food tour I've done but would definitely do it again. It was awesome.

5 Stars! Fantastic!!
Dawn_B, Feb 2023
This tour was excellent!!! Our tour guide, Elinor, was wonderful, informative and very friendly. We not only had wonderful food ( cheeses, jams, profiteroles, charcuterie, chocolate and wine) we walked the beautiful Marais neighborhood and learned the history of the area. The Little Red Children’s Market was fantastic and we also appreciated the visit to the Jewish Children’s school and the history behind the area. I highly recommend this tour as it helped us to get a feel for the area while enjoying some wonderful food and drinks.

Nice area to tour
alinacar06, Feb 2023
Walking around town was fun. The tour guide was nice. We felt the food tasting was minimal, mainly sweets. We were expecting more variety of tastings
Response from Host, Feb 2023
Good evening Alina, thank you for booking a tour with us and for your kind review. However, we are sorry that the variety of food offered in it did not meet your expectations... despite the fact that Amandine, your guide, led you to 6 different stops to taste some biscuits, jam, chocolate, macaron, cooked ham, wine and that you was even offered some snails. It would be hard in 3 hours of time to exceed this level of diversity, as we are very attached to consecrate time to the presentation of each tasting as you probably noticed.
