Explore the iconic Saint Germain des Prés on a delightful food tour through a  neighborhood renowned for its artistic and literary heritage. Stroll through its historic streets and sample artisanal pastries, world-class chocolates, fine cheeses and freshly baked bread from local shops and markets.

 A neighborhood of artists and writers

For decades, this corner of the Left Bank has been a meeting place for writers, painters and thinkers. Its streets still carry that spirit, and so do its food shops, where artisans take their craft as seriously as the creators who once filled the nearby cafés. As we walk, we share the stories behind the places you pass, so every tasting comes with a bit of history.

• Start at an open-air market: stroll through the stalls where seasonal produce and regional products fill the air with color and aroma.
• Explore the old streets: venture into the historic quarter, away from the crowds, and meet passionate local shopkeepers.
