Experience the foods of Toulouse - Our guide Mellissa was knowledgeable, spoke good English and took us on a walking tour of her home city. We got to hear about the history of food in the city and were introduced to many shopholders tasting their products and good wine!. Bites at many stops and a cassolet lunch. Recommend the tour.

Fun tour - Well, we shouldn’t have eaten breakfast! Melissa was just a doll and so much fun. We made about 5 different stops on this tour and it was a lot of fun. Our main stop was for lunch. We were served wine and cassoulet and another dish made of mashed potatoes with lots of cheese. Omg was it ever so good! Our other stops were the huge market where each shop sold different things, a chocolate shop, a violet shop and a shop that made its own pates and other food items. She served us some appetizers and wine. She knew and shared the history of Toulouse.

Good introduction to local food - Victor was a great guide! We booked this tour because we wanted to try some of the traditional foods of the Toulouse area, such as cassoulet, aligot, foie gras and the local wines. It was clear that the shop owners are passionate about their craft, friendly and knowledgeable. A good way to start our day/trip in this area!

Toulouse Tour - The sampling of different aspects of food culture in Toulouse was delightful. I really enjoyed seeing the various locations that offer examples of what makes Toulouse so unique in food, drink, and of course chocolate! Our guide Jérémie grew up in the city and was able to give us insider's recommendations.

Excellent private Tour - Our tour with Jérémie was excellent. We were only two people and no one joined us. Therefore it was a private tour, which we enjoyed a lot. In one Restaurant we could even taste more than the normal included meal. Jérémie also gave us tips for other restaurants and bars. We later went to a rooftop bar, which we would have never found without recommendation from a local. I would totally recommend the tour.

A must do in Toulouse! - Jeremie took us to various food venues which were 'real Toulouse', and places which we would not have visited but for the tour. He was very knowledgeable, particularly about the wines of France, & spoke excellent English. The group was small, which made for a better experience, and the Toulouse providores & artisans he introduced us to were charming. We considered the tour rates as highly recommended!
