Food tours in Paris

A food tour in Paris is a short guided walk through one neighbourhood, tasting what its bakeries, cheese shops and food stores sell. The three operators compared here work on the Right Bank, in Le Marais and around Les Halles and Rue Montorgueil. Their entry tours cost 65 to 129 euros per adult and last 1.5 to 2.5 hours.

Rue Montorgueil, one of the two areas of the Secret Food Tours walk, is a pedestrian street lined with food shops, bakeries and cafés.

Combine with the Salon du Chocolat

The Salon du Chocolat, the chocolate fair of Paris, is open to the public from 28 October to 1 November 2026 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. A Pastries & Chocolates tour in town and a day at the fair make a chocolate weekend.
