Great tour! Dave was fun and knowledgeable, and the food was delicious. A perfect way to explore the Latin Quarter.
This tour specializes in small group (10 or less) food tours in the Latin quarter. All stops were at high quality local businesses and included a chocolate shop (chocolaterie) where we sampled several handmade chocolates, a bakery (boulangerie) where we sampled an orange blossom sweet bread and the best baguette I've ever tasted, a grill (brasserie) where we were served a French grilled cheese sandwich (croque monsieur) and light salad, a cheese shop (fromagerie) where we sampled three types of handmade cheese with the aforementioned baguette, and a meat shop (Charcuterie) where we concluded with two glasses of wine accompanied with baguette, handmade sausage and French ham (jambon). Quantities were generous and the preceding when combined served as an early dinner for my wife and I.
Our guide Sam was exceptional. She is very knowledgeable in both the food and history of Paris and strived to build rapport and answer all of our questions. She was raised in the US prior to living in Paris for the last 10 years so her English is her first language and she is also quite articulate. We lucked out in that there were only four guests on our tour so we probably had more quality time with Sam than a slightly larger group might. It was basically like hanging out with a Paris foodie insider for 3 1/2 hours.
Khosi was very personable and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and there was a big variety of choices to sample. We enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it.
This food tour with Vanessa was fabulous!! She is extremely knowledgeable about the area and food, passionate and so enjoyable. An absolute delight! We would highly recommend!
Great exposure to iconic French food and wine while learning about the Latin Quarter. Tour guide, Anne Loraine, was very knowledgeable about food, wine, French history. Loved every minute of it!
Outstanding. Sam, our Tour leader, was extremely knowledge and an excellent communicator. Even though I have visited Paris many times previously I learned much new information about the history of the Latin quarter and the food. A truly memorable experience.
Our guide, Toma was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. The food and wine we tasted was of a high standard.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and interesting. We loved the small group. I would highly recommend.
Michelle was a wonderful host on this this tasting tour. Although I've been to Paris many times, it was nice to finally try Absinthe and swing by the steps of the church of the Pantheon to see where they filmed "Midnight in Paris" - was a highlight for me as a movie buff! Enjoyable tour and nice guests.
