10/10 Food Tour - My daughter and I had a fabulous time on this tour. The food was amazing and our tour guide, Sarah, was phenomenal. She was friendly, engaging, funny and highly knowledgeable. She made us feel like we were on the tour with an old friend who was excited to share all the top highlights of the area. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Best Tour Guide Ever! - We loved meeting Nkay (sp?), our guide, and we’re very impressed with her knowledge of the area. My husband always has a million questions, and Nkay answered every one. The group was nice and small, and Nkay paced us properly to make the climb up the hill to Sacre Coure easy and fun. Along the way, she pointed out interesting sites and provided in depth explanations of their historical significance. While we ate, she told us about escargots, croissants, and baguettes. She provided information about their historical and cultural significance, and she made it interesting and often funny. Nkay led the group confidently and kindly. In short, we were very impressed. Thank you, Nkay!

Delicious - Lovely way to spend a few hours in Paris with our guide Soso. Meeting point was easy to find. The food tasted was delightful and the wine divine. The Le Marais district was very interesting to explore. The best creme brûlée in Paris. Would highly recommend.

Delicious tour of historic neighborhood! All we had hoped for; perfect amount of walking, tasting French food and learning the h - This was the best part of our visit to Paris! The establishments we visited served delicious courses of food and were very welcoming to us. Our tour leader shared detailed knowledge about the food, the neighborhood and history of both. She answered our questions and appeared truly to enjoy spending time with us.

A delicious Le Marais experience - During our last visit to Paris, we took the Le Marais Paris Food Tour and we really enjoyed it. The tour gave us the opportunity to discover the flavors of this magnificent part of Paris. Our guide enriched the tour by explaining not only the food but also the history and culture of the region. From our first stop, it was truly fascinating to stroll around amidst the delicious smells of street food. Among the flavors we tried at different stops, local cheeses and desserts stood out. Our guide made our experience even more valuable by sharing the history and important details behind each flavor. During the tour, we had the opportunity to engage in conversation with other travelers and delve deeper into the flavors of Paris through shared experiences. However, I deducted a point because we were a bit pressed for time at some stops. If we had made more stops, we could have enjoyed the tour more pleasantly and comprehensively. All in all, the Le Marais Paris Food Tour is a great way to discover the delicious world of Paris. My only suggestion would be a slightly more relaxed schedule.

Nice tour guide, subpar tour - Our tour guide was a very nice, pleasant woman and we enjoyed our conversation, Though we enjoyed her company and she had some good information regarding the area, we didn’t learn much about the food, the food portions were very small and some of the places chosen weren’t the greatest. We started out at an amazing bakery and we did get some great macarons from Pierre Herme, but the other three stops were not good or memorable. The crepe stop was really bad - very dry with no flavor. The guide didn’t know much about the food, what we were eating, etc. This tour was a nice time spent together but our previous tours in the Marais area and in Madrid were a better experience for the money we spent on this tour.

Really generic, not organised - I've been doing food tours for a while and the best ones manage to bring a place to live through food. This tour took us to generic instagrammable spots in Montmartre at best. On our last stop, our guide had to leave, since it was time to go, but we had to stay there for almost two hours after that to receive our promised charcruterie board. We had a child in our group and visitors to the restaurant started revolting. I think that the history part was ok, our guide was group knowledgeable, but I wrote the company beforehand warning them about the children and I don't think that she had been prepared to entertain and create an immersive experience for children. Finally, I sent messages beforehand that went unreplied and on the day I called the assigned phone numbers many times before the assigned time to warn them that we had trouble with the location and no one answered. I sent messages and no one answered. They were impossible to contact. We ended up missing the first stop because we couldn't warn them.

Viator lacks customer service - I accidentally purchased a food tour through Las Marais district twice. I asked to have one of the tours refunded, and was denied by Viator. Very disappointed in their lack of customer service. Next time will not use Viator as a middle man, I will purchase direct.
