France’s capital is a must-visit for foodies! On this private 3,5-hour walking tour, you will be amazed by the flavors of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, a vibrant neighborhood in the heart of Paris.

Renowned for its historical sites, and exquisite culinary scene, Saint-Germain-des-Prés is the perfect place to experience Paris’ authentic flavors. Together with your foodie guide, you will enjoy a stroll in the quaint cobblestoned streets and stop in different eateries, tasting local specialties.

As the tour will be completely tailored to your needs and preferences, the itinerary can vary but we will make sure you visit a bakery (where you will taste crisp-crusted baguettes and “viennoiseries”), an “épicerie fine” (with its specialties from all around France including olive oil, tapenade, pâtés and hams), a pastry shop, and a food market (to try some cheese, saucisson and other delights).

As you tour and taste in this culinary paradise, your guide will share with you many insights about the local cuisine, as well as fascinating anecdotes about the neighborhood and its main points of interest (including famous cafés and restaurants).

Paris

Born in Toronto (Canada), I always had a passion for Paris and all things Parisian. In 2011, I decided to move to the French capital to fulfill my childhood dream. Before that, I had many lives and jobs, working in marketing, public relations, as a travel agent, in a restaurant, and even being a potter which I did for 15 years with my own gallery and studio. My passion for food, wine and art reached its peak when I travelled to Florence and took a food and wine tour I truly loved. From there, I knew this is what I wanted to do in Paris in order to show the city through its culinary aspects. To me, gastronomy and pleasures of the table are the perfect way to understand a city – especially Paris where eating is a way of life in its own right. I like to say I am a cultural consultant. On my side, you can discover the authentic flavors of Paris in family-run shops, restaurants and cafes loved by locals, and off-the-beaten-track gems of the Paris daily life. When I have some free time to spend, I love tasting food, talking to people and venturing in an unknown area. This is the Paris I live in: a city in a state of constant renewal and possibilities. With my team of multilingual guides (French, Spanish, English), we design unique culinary experiences with an educational dimension. Make sure you show up with an empty stomach!
