Paris Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More
Description
On our Secret Food Tour: Le Marais Paris, you'll enjoy a variety of classic French street foods starting with a viennoiserie/croissants, and collecting breads, then go and seat to enjoy a classic croque-monsieur in the very restaurant where Jim Morrison spent some of his time in Paris, along with discovering our mystery dish and cheese while enjoying a glass of red and white wine. Visiting Le Marais also means seeing the Jewish street of Paris and tasting some creamy Falafels. Then off to a world of sweetness for some incredible chocolates and colourful macarons, all of this crowned by a dessert to finish with style. Our tour starts at the bustling heart of Le Marais near the famous rue de Rivoli, one of the main streets of the city. During the tour we will walk the old streets, cross the Place des Vosges and see some of the oldest medieval houses of Paris. You will realise how the locals live in this part of Paris and how the city's history influence has shaped its gastronomy.
Tour Options
Itinerary
1- 11 Rue François Miron, 75004 Paris. Two of Paris' oldest medieval houses - Walk past and make a stop
A striking Baroque church from 1641 towering over Rue Saint-Antoine. Its dome inspired Les Invalides, and its steps have watched over Marais market life for nearly four centuries.
60 Rue des Francs Bourgeois, 75003 Paris, National Archive museum, Pass without stopping
Paris's oldest planned square, completed in 1612 for royal celebrations. Its perfectly symmetrical red-brick arcades once housed Victor Hugo, and today frame one of the most elegant spots in the city to pause between tastings.
The writer's home from 1832 to 1848, tucked into the corner of Place des Vosges. Hugo wrote much of Les Misérables here, and the apartment is now a free museum overlooking the square.
Jewish quarter
The beating heart of Paris's historic Jewish quarter, the Pletzl. This narrow medieval street is lined with falafel stands, Yiddish bakeries, and family-run delis — a living story of the communities that shaped the Marais's food culture.
Marché Enfants Rouge
30 Rue du Bourg Tibourg, 75004 Paris, Mariage Frère (since1854) is one of the oldest Tea salons in the Capital and an institution for tea lovers.
