Delicious and fun - We had so much fun on the food tour! We loved riding around town on the comfy bikes, learning French food history, and trying so many tasty and unique French foods! The market food tasting “apero style” was the highlight - trying all the cheese, charcuterie, fresh fruit and veg, and of course a glass of wine! Thanks - recommended for all foodies!

Lots of Laughs, delicious food, unique historical info and a FANTASTIC tour guide…Oh My! - I’ve been to Paris many times and Rachel took us to so many very cool food stops I’ve never been to! When It rained, voila, rain ponchos were provided for us! We began the tour at my absolute fave coffee shop, Le Peloton - where they have many bike tours to choose from. I can’t wait to go back for another tour….and coffee! #ALLROADSLEADTOPELOTON

Unique and Authentic Parisian Experience - This tour was so much fun - firstly, Rachel was great at icebreakers and I can say we quickly became friends with everyone else on the tour. Secondly, she is so knowledgeable about Parisian culinary history, and even though I’ve been living here for 5 years, I learned SO much. What was also great is that she took us to places that were more authentic than other food tours I’ve been on. We bopped around markets where the French shop every weekend and tried some award-winning items as well as unexpected ones. My favorite part was definitely one of the stops where we set up a little picnic to eat a lot of the food we collected along the way with a bottle of wine. It felt like a little party with close friends. Also, the amount we ate was definitely beyond worth the price! If you’re looking for a unique and also authentic way to experience Paris - this is it!

We tried different types of baguettes, their best croissants, famous ‘planche mixte’ alongside some great drinks and much more! Very comfortable bikes that made us enjoy the tour end-to-end! We also got some of her favorite restaurants for us to put on our want-to-go map! Totally recommend it.
