Have a Great Night in Paris - This was a GREAT tour, because it was run by Devour Tours. The guide David was outstanding. He knew about food, was excited to talk about it and got us all engaged with his energy. Going on this tour was like a bunch of friends getting together to go out on the town. David made this happen by treating us all as family, which made us family. At the end of the tour, after David left, all of us stayed for a few hours just to be together as new found friends. Do not miss going on this or any other Devour Tour, in Paris or the other countries they serve.

A worthwhile experience - This is the third tour my wife and I have taken with Devour and all have been excellent. This particular one was in the Latin Quarter with Toma as our guide. We enjoyed her enthusiastic tour and the small taste of Paris.

Do this! - Delicious food, amazing history (hello walk around back of an apartment building on a busy street to an old ROMAN AMPHITHEATER! What?! Camille was a wonderful guide, it was clear she loved her job and sharing food and culture with others. We learned a ton about wine, we tried snails (!), a ton of delicious other foods and wines, and ended up in the cutest little bar that I also can't recommend enough. There, we tried absinthe, prepared traditionally by slowly dripping water over a sugar cube. The atmosphere, the history, the food, the company - everything was wonderful. Highly recommend, and many special thanks to Camille, who was just awesome! We'll definitely be booking these tours in our future travels!
