Start with baguette at a classic boulangerie
Step inside a traditional boulangerie and watch your guide choose a crusty baguette straight from the oven. Sliced and shared on the spot, this first bite of Parisian bread is as fresh and honest as it gets. -

Savor escargots and wine at a classic Parisian restaurant
Settle into a neighborhood restaurant for your first seated tasting. Tender escargots arrive at the table alongside a glass of French wine, a rich and buttery pairing that captures one of Paris's oldest traditions. -

Sample artisan cheese at a family-run fromagerie

End with a sweet crêpe

Customer Reviews
The tour was great, and I can't imagine a better Tour Guide than Sofia. She led us on an awesome evening tour of Montmartre, pointing out historical and interesting sights along the way. The food was plentiful and delicious, and it was just so easy to try all these things on a tour instead of having to figure out where to get each one. Thank You Sofia, It was a wonderful tour!
We had the pleasure of having Sophia as our guide through Le Marais. She was warm, inviting, friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and the food. We really enjoyed our evening and highly recommend this tour.
