Paris latin quarter food tour

Choose the Private Food Tour in the Latin Quarter

The Latin Quarter is much more than a postcard. It is the oldest neighborhood of Paris, home to the iconic Sorbonne University and the ancient Arènes de Lutèce, a Roman amphitheater hidden among the streets. It is also a living neighborhood, with lively outdoor markets and gourmet shops where Parisians shop every day.
On this private tour, you’ll visit a local farmers’ market, wander through charming streets and sample delicious French specialties. We end the journey with a cheese tasting and a glass of wine.

What Makes This Tour Different?

• A great open-air market at the heart of the tour. You’ll visit a farmers’ market where Parisians do their real shopping, and you’ll taste what they buy.
• The oldest neighborhood of Paris as your setting. Between tastings, we share the story of the streets, the university and the iconic monuments, so every bite comes with a sense of place.
• A finale worth waiting for. We sit down at the end in a beautiful vaulted cellar for a cheese tasting and a glass of wine, a very French way to close the walk.
• A private experience. There are no big groups and no rush. You set the pace and ask all the questions you like.
