Allison’s ’Potions in Paris’ tour offered a thoughtfully crafted blend of culture, cuisine and a peek into a few quiet corners of Paris that are missed by most tourists. It was a leisurely-paced tour that felt more like spending the day with a well-informed local than a typical sightseeing sprint. The tour with Allison began at the Bibliothèque Forney, nestled in the Gothic beauty of the Hôtel de Sens. Although it was brief, the stop gave a very real sense of Paris’s layered history. It’s a calm and possibly cinematic way to start the tour experience. From there, we made our way to The Caféothèque of Paris, a snug little café where coffee is taken seriously. It’s a perfectly Parisian wake-up call. The coffee is strong and rich. Meant to be sipped in style with a view of the river. The Mémorial de la Shoah was a somber and meaningful stop on our journey. A short stop to be sure, but one that added powerful context to Paris’s modern identity, giving the tour a deeper dimension. As we passed Rue François Miron, Allison pointed out the oldest house in Paris. A highlight I didn’t expect and a wonderful photo op. These little details are what make Allison’s ’Potions in Paris’ tour shine so brightly. The stop at Jadis et Gourmande was pure indulgence. Their chocolate is so tempting it made it hard to select. It was a sweet midway stop that kept the energy up and spirits high as Allison and I continued on our way. Passing through the Passage de l'Horloge à Automates is like stepping into a hidden fairytale. The quirky, mechanical clock was unexpected. Another Parisian secret you might not come across on your own. Allison & I used the rooftop entrance at the Centre Pompidou, and headed straight for the panoramic view of the city. It is a stunning and perfect place to pause, breathe, and take in the skyline. The vibe shifted to festive at bière cultures Paris, it was hard to choose just one to sample a few of the city’s finest craft beers. It was fun, unpretentious, and literally full of local flavor. As though the tourists haven’t found it yet. We ended the tour on Rue Montorgueil with a wine and cheese tasting. It was the perfect finale for our Parisian potions tour: good food, lively atmosphere, and a new friend to toast.

This was a fun and relaxing tour. I went with a group of friends and enjoyed tasting the various beverages that we were introduced to. Some of the drinks are very much associated to France and others were a surprise to me. It also gave us a good sense of one of the more popular districts in Paris, which we continued to explore after the tour was finished. I recommend it!
