Great tour!
Fay is a great guide. Wonderful food and an experience seeing a part of Paris we otherwise would not have. Definitely recommend Fay and her tours.
Response from the operator: Thank you Amy for the kind words. I am glad my tour enabled you to discover another side of Paris!

An excellent morning in Paris.
This was a wonderful activity in the 9th Arrondissement... Fay was fabulous... we learned a lot of history that was new to us, while enjoying wonderful and quite filling foods along the way. I would highly recommend this tour, especially if one is staying in that area. I went back to some of the shops we saw on this tour the next day too... much better than typical trourist spots.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much Amy, I am glad to hear that you liked the walk, the history and the food! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Paris :)

1000% Recommend!
I had the honor to be invited to the very first Covered Passages afternoon food tour with Fanny as I was very curious after watching the Les Frenchies YouTube video. I absolutely loved it! So much history, so much beauty and so much food! Patricia (the other guest) and I, enjoyed Fanny's passion and love for these amazing passages. Highly recommended! Don’t wait up and book this tour !
Response from the operator: Thank you so much Silvia for your kind words! Really means a lot to me.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Paris Covered Passages Food Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Paris Covered Passages Food Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $129 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Paris Covered Passages Food Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Paris Covered Passages Food Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Paris Covered Passages Food Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Paris Covered Passages Food Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Paris Covered Passages Food Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Paris Covered Passages Food Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX, Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
