I always prefer a small group tour and on the day we booked for we ended up having just ourselves and one other couple. Walking through Montmatre we sampled chocolate, macrons, pastry, cheese and crepes. Along the way our guide told us about the Montmatre area and of course food culture in Paris. At each stop he explained about the shop itself and how/why it had become as widely regarded for it's high quality as all of them were. The secret location on this particular tour actually made this unlike any food tour I've done previously - it gave us a chance to have a private charcuterie degustation. As we'd walked through Montmatre our guide had collected several cheeses, cured meats and pates (alongside fresh baguettes and fine French butter of course) which he then presented to us in "courses" with not only the background to each one but also suggestions of how best to taste and enjoy it. All this fine food was of course paired with excellent French wines - first a white and then a red. Dessert was not missed either as a surprise pastry also appeared when we thought we could eat no more. If all that were not exceptional enough our guide Gespard perfect. Superb English, extremely knowledge and simply lovely to chat with throughout the course of the afternoon. Could not recommend this tour more highly.
Reviews like this make for enjoyable reading. The best experiences often combine discovery, conversation, and great food, and we're glad you found all three. We hope you'll join Secret Food Tours again soon!
Our tour guide was great. Aramis spoke very clear English and new what she was talking about. She explained everything well and made sure everybody understood what was happening. Three of the five people with us really did not know anything about Paris, and they thought it was very fun. The other two had been here many times anddidn’t find it all that interesting.
We're thankful for your feedback. We're glad that your experience left a lasting impression overall. We hope to see you again with Secret Food Tours in the future!

Coralie was a delight to guide us through Montmartre and introduce us to local artisans of delicious foods. Her knowledge of the area and its history was excellent. Our group enjoyed a long relaxed lunch of cheeses, meats and wines at the end of our tour. There was great conversation between our group but this could be different dependent on who joins the tour. We paid for the extra 3 wines and enjoyed our choice.
Thank you for sharing this with us! Hearing that your tour became such a memorable and positive part of your time in the city means a great deal to our team. We hope to see you again on another Secret Food Tour.
