Itinerary
Join us for this 3-hour long food tour across one of the most famous and rich in history neighbourhood in Paris: Le Marais. You will have a full meal in at least 4 stops. All food included! Please, bear in mind that the tastings here described may change according to the season and the availabilities of our partners.
On this small island in the Seine river, you will have a taste of the most French dessert. You will feel like a true Parisian! small round cakes, inspired by meringues. The base is made from almond powder, sugar and eggs. The pastry is then baked in the oven until golden brown. So, have you guessed what they are?
Enter one of the most picturesque streets in the world: the iconic Rue des Rosiers! Rue des Rosiers is probably one of the main street of the old Jewish neighbourhood of Paris, named after the roses bushes that used to decorate this street in the past. Here, you will try a snack that's surprisingly typical from this neighbourhood (even though you would never think about it). What do you think it would be?
Rue de Rivoli is one of the most famous streets in Paris, that connects Place de La Concorde with Place de la Bastille and that's famous for it's architecture and luxury boutiques. Here, have a seat in an adorable local Bistrot to get a taste of a delicious main dish to continue your culinary journey, choosing between the famous croque-madame (much more than a simple French toast!) or the iconic onion soup.
Hôtel de Sully is a private mansion built in the XVII century that's now the seat of the the French national organization responsible for national heritage sites. Near this iconic landmark, in a typical Parisian Bistrot, you will taste a cheese selection, approved by local people. You will understand why you can't say "France" without saying "cheese".
A stunning green square in the middle of the city, with fountains, trees and historical monuments like Victor Hugo's house. In this amazing location, you will try the typical French choux: a puff pastry made with vanilla filling and sugar pearls. The perfect way to end the tour on a sweet note

This is a fantastic way to see and learn about the city and immerse yourself into the culture. Our guide, Ashufur, was very knowledgeable, accommodating, and fun. All of the food was delicious. This is a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because there seemed to be a lot of time between the first tasting and the second tasting. We were getting concerned that we would not be full and tired. We were ready to sit and rest but our second stop for food samples was standing outside in the street outside of the restaurant. Overall fantastic experience and would highly recommend.
Achref was an excellent host and guide. We enjoyed his commentary. The amount of food was more than enough for a meal, and the variety was a great selection for an introduction to local foods.
Achraf was our exceptional guide
We had a wonderful tour! It was amazing to try foods from different places and learn about the history of Paris! Thank you so much!
We had Estelle and she was a great guide who gave a good mix of history and food on the tour. We started off with macarons, had a nice French onion soup at a restaurant, next place was the best felafels I have ever had followed by an impressive cheese board and another dessert. Make sure you’re hungry before you go!
One of the highlights of our Paris trip! Rocco provided terrific insights into each stop on the tour. The food was outstanding, and he offered additional recommendations on what to see and where to eat while we were in Paris. Highly recommend!
I really enjoyed the food tour experience. Our guide Rocco was great, very informative and open minded. The food was also excellent. I recommend the experience for anyone who wishes to learn about Le Marais and French food. Thanks again Rocco!
Amazing guide, delicious food
