Claire was a great tour guide! She gave my sister and I a one of a kind experience in France. We learned all about history, culture, and traditional food of the area. Would highly recommend to anyone traveling to the area!
This was an amazing tour. Our group of six had a wonderful time learning more about all of these unbelievably well curated restaurants. Our tour guide was extremely informative and did such an amazing job accommodating our diets and our requests. If you want to true view of the city and the restaurants it has please do this to her. As a part of the hospitality industry, our group is very well-versed in quality food and wine, and this tour hit it right on the head. When you are all done with the tour, you’ll have a great idea of the local area, potential dining spots, and an opportunity to go back and enjoy the restaurants again.
We had a fascinating tour with Camilla who is extremely knowledgable and made the trip very interesting and a lot of fun. She took us to many hidden away places and at times it was easy to forget that you were in Paris. The food she presented was excellent and plentiful – we all had a fantastic time!
We were a family group of 12 ranging from 21 to 77 years and this absolutely suitable for everyone! Silvana was phenomenal in her knowledge of the area and her sense of humor was on point. The food and the wine were outstanding – our collective favorite was the pita at Miznon. We thought the food selection was well balanced – we loved that Silvana shared the French influence that has been incorporated in this amazing Jewish district. Absolutely would do this tour again!
Wonderful twilight tour of the culture, food and history to our of the Marais. Karl was a fabulous host – very knowledgeable, and really cared to make sure that everyone was enjoying themselves. Karl also very patiently answered lots of my questions! The food we tried was delicious including beef burgundy pita, amazing falafel, escargots and many other amazing delicacies. Brilliant evening. Thanks so much, Karl.

Sylvana
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina
Something simple like a crêpe oeuf fromage, a croissant aux amandes or just any kind of cheese
My favourite spot is by the river, anywhere between Pont d'Alexandre and the Ile Saint Louis. Have an picnic and a glass of wine
Lulu
I was born & raised in Paris but spent a lot of time abroad, including 6 years in Shanghai, China
I’m obsessed with everything food & beverage related and have a great love for hospitality and bonding with people from all over the world. My fav french food is a very simple, yet delicious tarragon roasted chicken with some roasted potatoes and green beans.
My fav thing to do in Paris would be walking around my neighborhood, le Marais, and discover newly opened restaurants
Isobel
Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, I moved to Paris in 2018 to pursue a Master's Degree in International Relations. Giving food tours combines my lifelong love of cooking & eating with my training in cultural diplomacy.
My favorite French food is foie gras...controversial but so delicious!
My favorite thing to do in Paris is "flâner," to walk without a purpose and enjoy what one encounters, usually ending with a glass of wine on a terrasse.
Camila
My name is Camila and I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I've been living in Paris since 2018. Spending these years as a local, studying, tasting, absorbing and exploring the city, allow me now to share my knowledge and love for Paris to others. I’m also an actress and a filmmaker.
My favorite French food? All the pastries this country has to offer.
The thing I enjoy the most in Paris is going to a good local restaurant and walking around everywhere, discovering hidden streets, gardens and passages.
Benoit
Born and raised in Paris, I started studying law but quit to follow my passion for history in La Sorbonne. I’m specialist in Parisian restaurants and cafés history and just published a book about it.
I love spending time in the great Aligre market and exploring my city, looking for the best food spots—particularly sweet, as a flan parisien or pain au chocolat.
When it's rainy and I'm not working on my thesis, I love listening to music and reading, comics as much as classics, as Guy de Maupassant.
Claire
I'm a French Kiwi, (we're known as Friwis!) and grew up in New Zealand. I've been constantly exploring Paris for 27 years. I'm a proud Parisienne and passionate about my city, forever in awe of its beauty and quirks and transformation, and I love sharing that passion with visitors.
My favourite French food has got to be a good magret de canard but I love all good food!
What I love most about Paris is that you never know what is around a corner -who or what you'll run into and what will happen. And you may think you know an area well but have you seen the magic that's behind that closed door when it opens, or the wonder of the street behind that one you always take?
Judith
From Paris, born and raised in the city.
Baguette of course ! With cheese or charcuterie... and French fries but Belgian people will tell you it is not French.
Explore the city by walking, discover new places such as restaurants, coffees, museums! Also reading at a terrace or in a park during the summer season. My favorite one? Parc Monceau in the 17th!
Juan
I'm Juan french-ecuadorian born and raised in Paris la Bastille.
What's my favorite French dish? I'd say it depends on the terroir, of course, but I can't stay away from French cheese for too long.
I'm in love with my city and I consider myself a flâneur, I like to wander aimlessly through the streets and over the bridges of Paris.
Helena
I am a Danish and American wine and food enthusiast with a deep passion for storytelling and creating memorable experiences.
My favorite French food is probably Sole Meunier (from Bistro Paul Bert of course) and all of the oysters from Normandie.
My favorite thing about Paris is that every single day contains so many possibilities. I’ll be walking about myself, stumble into a friend on the street, and all of the sudden we will be sharing a bottle of rosé champagne and talking for hours.
