Wonderful experience!
Gabriel was an amazing guide! Enjoyed all of the tastings.
Response from the operator: Le Marais is a neighborhood made for tasting your way through, so thank you for sharing this! We hope a few of those stops come back to you whenever Paris comes to mind. Secret Food Tours would love to welcome you again, in France or anywhere else you travel.

Scrumptious walking tour of Marais
We followed advice given by others: comfortable shoes and a hearty appetite. Our guide Sharif, a delightful young man, guided our 13 person group through the crowded street of the Marais on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. He has a wonderful rapport with the various shop and restaurant owners and is quite knowledgeable about food and local history. The itinerary is as promised with an out of this world buttery croissant, incredible cheeses, duck “nuggets”, croque monsieurs, macarons, chocolates, falafel, and a surprise dessert. And tastings of red and white wine with “lunch.” We hope to return to some of the places we stopped at along the tour during our stay in Paris. The meet up spot is easy to find- right between the St Paul Metro entrance and the carousel. If you arrive early, there’s a pleasant cafe right there. The Marais also has quite a lot of elegant shopping so you’ll have an opportunity to make some mental notes as you cruise the streets. This is an enjoyable two hour+ tour from which you will leave with a full stomach- no need for dinner! We purchased some exquisite cheese at the specialty fromagerie visited on the tour so we would have an opportunity for more tastings! Thank you Sharif and all the shop staff!
Response from the operator: What a wonderful account of your afternoon in the Marais, Kathy, from the buttery croissant and duck “nuggets” right through to the surprise dessert. It’s a real treat to hear the shop owners made you feel so welcome, and that you went back for more cheese from the fromagerie. Your tips on the meeting point and the café nearby will help future guests too. We hope the rest of your stay in Paris was just as delicious, and that Secret Food Tours gets to welcome you again in another city.

Paris Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Paris Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More cost?
+
Prices start at $102 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 Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More 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 Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 90 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 1,301 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Paris Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More?
+
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 Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More 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 Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More?
+
Around 455 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 Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More 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 Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. 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.
What is included in Paris Le Marais Food Tour With 10+ Tastings, Cheese, Wine & More?

Not included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
