October Food Tour - My mom and I really enjoyed this tour! An excellent way to see a new neighborhood on our first trip to Paris, and learn more about the history. Our guide Catherine was very knowledgeable and friendly, and we enjoyed all of the stops. I am a vegetarian and they were very accommodating of this on the tour. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Paris and looking for something a little different to do!

Latin Quarter Walking Food Tour with Catherine - Catherine is an excellent guide-knowledgeable, personable, considerate of individual needs, and great at sharing interesting historical facts. The pace was perfect for our group of five.
All the streets, small shops and cafes were very interesting. We got a wonderful selection of cheese and charcuterie at our first two stops. Appreciated the variety and quality of food throughout the walking tour. It was a perfect introduction in the Latin Quarter. Thanks for a great experience! We’d highly recommend Catherine.

A Culinary Adventure in the Latin Quarter (with our guide Emy) - Visiting Paris through a food tour in the Latin Quarter was an amazing idea. This area is less known than Montmartre, but it’s incredibly charming. It's not touristic and we didn't have to keep walking uphill! Rue Mouffetard is one of the oldest streets of Paris and it had real good vibes around the french lifestyle with all the markets, shops, restaurants...a unique and authentic atmosphere. Our guide, Emy, was genuinely caring about making sure we had a great experience. At the cheese store (fromagerie), Emy took note of our preferences and created a personalized plateau de fromage that was spot-on. At la Petite, everyone was very welcoming and sweet. At the restaurant Pipos, we had beef bourguignon with mashed potatoes that we loved so much. If you want to explore a more off-the-beaten-path part of Paris, with delicious food and a friendly guide, this tour of the Latin Quarter is a must.

Best food tour ever - Emy was an amazing tour guide. Knowledgeable and so much fun. Having done many food tours in other cities, this was by far the best. My wife is a big “foodie” and she was thrilled with the selection of food. Highly recommend this tour- especially with Emy.

Wonders of the Latin Quarter Food Tour - The tour was much better than we had imagined it would be. Our guide, Emy, was exceptional. She moved at our pace and was wonderful to explain the sites in a manner which was very interesting and fun. The food was great and the staff were welcoming. I would do the same tour again and recommend to my friends and family. Thank you Emy for an amazing Parisian memory.
