It gives you a different perspective of Paris, the history, the architecture, the food, little secrets you may not have known. Marie and Felix were our guides, we felt like we were visiting friends in Paris. They were both full of positive energy and so knowledgeable and brilliant. You can feel their passion in their work. We appreciated these two wonderful people. Go do this tour.

My fella and I very much enjoyed the blend of eating and learning about great food and drink while learning about the neighborhood and general Parisian history. Dakota executed the tour perfectly and Felix added only what a native Parisian can. Add the drinks package! We would absolutely book another tour with Eating Europe.

5 years ago we went on our first Eating Europe food tour while in Rome and it was the highlight of our trip. So when it came time to go to Paris we decided to book their Parisian tour and it did not disappoint. The tours are so great because they take you to the neighborhoods where life happens. You get to meet food artisans and hear about the history of the city, it’s people and their food culture. We loved our second experience and will definitely look to book a tour for our next European adventure.
