Emily (in) Paris, Pastry, Croissant and Chocolat - Emily (in Paris--she probably hears that every time) was on time, well prepared, friendly and knowledgeable. This tour had yummy stops with little to no waiting as everything was arranged before--we skipped a few long lines. Do not eat anything before (except maybe a little protein) because there is a good selection. Emily explained about the types of people making the different foods (hint: not just "baker" or "chef") and about the arrondissements we moved through. A great start to our Paris excursion!

Learn while eating! - Our tour guide Juan was friendly, knowledgeable and lots of fun. We learned just as much as we ate! We would definitely recommend this tour but be sure to go on an empty stomach because there will be lots to try!

Excellent food and Paris history tour - I had a great experience exploring the Marais with my partner and our tour guide Josh.
Josh had exceptional knowledge of the area and we particularly enjoyed learning about the concept of 'terroir' and how it relates to French food industry.
Being able to ask questions about the topics that came up on the tour was a great experience for us. We got to learn so much more about French food than just the food we were eating!
Highly recommend this easy to walk and informative tour of this historic area.
Also suggest taking a bag for any souvenirs and food stuffs you purchase along the route.

Delightful experience! - Had a marvelous morning with Joshua!
Me and my friend were delighted by the variety of pastries and delicious chocolate! Loved the Parisian flan.
Plus, the galleries and passageways were chef’s kiss.
Overall, culture and gastronomy combined are the things I love the most about France! 100% recommended this tour!

Great Walking Tour for Families with Teens! - Awesome family experience in the 2nd and 3rd districts. Visited 6 places and tasted macaroons, flan, eclairs, chocolate, crepes and croissants. Alice was a great guide and not only talked about the sweet treats but also shared a little history about the area. Don’t eat before - and plan to skip a meal after! You will be full!
