10 Food Tours in Paris That You Shouldn't Miss
Lingering over pain au chocolat in a sidewalk café, relaxing after a day of strolling along the Seine and marveling at icons like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe… the perfect Paris experience combines leisure and liveliness with enough time to savor both an exquisite meal and exhibits at the Louvre. Awaken your spirit at Notre Dame, bargain hunt at the Marché aux Puces de Montreuil or for goodies at the Marché Biologique Raspail, then cap it all off with a risqué show at the Moulin Rouge.

We enjoyed spending the morning with Solene. She took us to the hidden gems of the quarter. We saw artisans working in their shops, hidden passages and we learnt about how Paris is encouraging old professions to persevere and survive. The viaduc and the promenade was awesome so was the canal ST.Martin The Aligre market was lively and it did not hurt to have the tastings along the way. Highly recommended

I can't recommend My Private Paris enough. What a fantastic experience! I recently went on a tour of Montmartre with Marie (one of the founders) and Raphaelle, who are brilliant guides - friendly, kind, funny and an endless source of knowledge! I learnt so much about Montmartre, its history, culture and famous figures, with amazing local info and tips too (Raphaelle lives there). Marie and Raphaelle were incredibly engaging and they packed so much in (including some delicious sweet treats from bakeries en route!), going above and beyond while still ensuring it was comfortable, fun and personal. I feel like a local now! It was such a privilege to have a tour from people who clearly just love what they do and thrive off doing it - truly an unforgettable experience. I will 100% book more tours with them when I next return to Paris - this is by far the best way to get to know the city. Merci My Private Paris et a bientôt !

The tour was very interesting, lots of useful information about Paris and Montmartre history, fun facts and myth debunking about the romantic idea of how artists used to live in Montmartre. Definitely worth taking the tour, I can't see how I would be able to get all the information and connect all the dots otherwise. The tour gives a good basis to go back and explore interesting places in more details.

A great journey through delicious fancy food shops. You get impressions from savory to sweet and back. It includes the obvious cheese, boar products, bread, olive oil, tapenade, jam, tarts -- you name it ;-). If you like some of the products you can buy them, if not you don't have to, its your choice. And you are accompanied by a very friendly tour guide who leads you through this part of the city and provides background information about both history and French culture. Don't forget to put on some sturdy shoes you will need them for walking around. This also helps stimulating your appetite. We look forward to further tours in France!
