Fantastic local food and cultural immersion - Allie was a fantastic tour guide who shared many insights into local Toulouse food and culture while helping to navigate the best of the market providers. She clearly has a good relationship with many of the local market vendors who were happy to stop and chat with us and answer our questions. Great way to immerse yourself into the local food scene.

An excellent way to learn about French food - Teana was an excellent hostess. Very fun to listen to and had good local info to share. She obviously enjoys her work. The market she introduced us to has excellent food and such a variety. I was full after we sampled everything she chose for us. Highly recommend!

Sensory and Cultural Indulgence with Great Friends and a Fabulous Tour Guide - Fantastic, cultural and engaging tour - a sensory overload with so much more to learn about the staples of French cuisine, and with a focus on the south west - even when you thought you already knew it! I will do it again and can highly recommend 🥰

A memorable experience - Victor Hugo Market in Toulouse is a real gem for food and wine lovers. On the ground floor, you will find more than 80 stalls offering an unlimited selection of fresh and regional products, such as cheeses, cold cuts, seafood and local wines. The best thing is that on the first floor there are several restaurants that cook with these same products, so you can enjoy delicious and fresh dishes without leaving the market. It is a perfect place to immerse yourself in local cuisine and have a good time.

5 STAR TOUR!!! BOOK WITH ALLY - Book a tour with Ally! The vendors at the local food market knew Ally and treated us exceptionally well. Every dish we tried was delicious, and experiencing them within a French food market left us with a newfound appreciation for the cuisine. It felt more authentic, budget-friendly, and approachable. As an American tour group, we felt completely at ease and were warmly welcomed. Our food market tour with Ally easily deserves a five-star rating!
