MUST DO Toulouse tour! - A wonderful welcome and memorable introduction to Toulouse! Ally - chef and cook book editor- was a thoughtful, knowledgeable guide, sensitive to the dietary restrictions of tour participants. Ally’s enthusiasm for Toulouse gastronomy and history made this tour a 10 out of 10! She is a credit to a Taste of Toulouse and an outstanding ambassador. Highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic food tour with Ally - I honestly thought this was one of the best food tours I've done. Ally was incredibly well informed and shared the info in such an engaging and interesting way. She kept me and my 17-year-old son very engaged through the whole 3.5 hour tour. Amazing value and the lunch at the end was so convivial and fun. Top marks. Wonderful experience!

Always excellent and good value exploration of a wonderful SW France food market - We had the most wonderful tour with Jenn this month. Our third market tour over the years. There is always something new to see, learn about or taste! Extremely good value in terms of introduction to the market and then finishing with food and wine we have collected along the way. We also shopped afterwards at the outstanding Xavier Fromagerie and bought confit duck at Papaix et Fils to roast for dinner. Jenn, just like the wonderful founder Jessica, was knowledgeable, sophisticated, enthusiastic and charmingly friendly. Highly recommend this and other tours.

Eat, drink and learn - A great introduction to the amazing and delicious foods of Toulouse. Teana was amazing as she talked to us about MOF, the baguette and so much more. I took this tour mainly to learn about the market and other places like it in Toulouse, since I will be here for 2 months. Teana shared a lot of great information with me as we filled her basket with foods from the market to have for lunch.
