What makes this tour special

If the best way to your heart is through your stomach, then the best way to discover the heart of Paris is through its food. Parisian cuisine is dynamic, intricate, and flavoursome, and taking a food tour is a fantastic way to find the best local spots to try quintessential French dishes in the company of a local guide well-versed in the city’s incredible culinary scene. This tour allows you to explore the picturesque Saint-Germain-des-Prés area while delving into the history of French cuisine and tasting a variety of authentic dishes from esteemed local eateries.

On your private 3-hour food tour, you will:

Spend three delicious hours exploring the gastronomic heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés with a passionate local guide who will reveal the hidden gems of this historic Left Bank neighbourhood. Beginning in a lively square right at the heart of the district, this private tour can be enjoyed in the morning or afternoon, offering a perfect blend of culinary indulgence and cultural insight.

As you wander charming streets and historic squares, you’ll uncover the hallmarks of French cuisine, from its medieval roots to its modern innovations. Along the way, enjoy a carefully curated selection of tastings: fresh French bread, farm-to-table dishes from a local bistro, a distinguished assortment of cheeses from a renowned fromagerie, and locally raised caviar. Sweet temptations abound too, from rich apple tart to avant-garde chocolate, with seasonal surprises such as raisin rye bread, chocolate mousse, or caramelised pork belly. Pair your bites with classic French beverages, including Cognac or Armagnac at the city’s oldest brandy shop and carefully chosen local wines.

Between tastings, your guide will bring the neighbourhood to life with stories of famous residents, from Hemingway and Picasso to cutting-edge contemporary chefs, while pointing out historic buildings, hidden courtyards, and the elegant streets that give Saint-Germain its enduring charm. A visit to a tucked-away food court will offer a taste of Paris’ most inventive baked goods, and a stop at a trendy Néo-bistro will showcase the city’s ever-evolving culinary scene.

This tour is ideal for inquisitive travellers seeking a deep dive into Paris’ food culture, combining exceptional flavours, local expertise, and the rich history of one of the city’s most iconic quarters.
