So take out the guesswork and book a Paris food tour to not only sample the best food in the city, but also learn more about a specific neighborhood, French culture and history, and get expert advice on where to dine during the rest of your stay in Paris.

It’s no secret that Rick and I love food tours as we both think it’s a fun (and tasty!) way to explore a city and learn some fun facts along the way. We’ve enjoyed food tours in San Diego, New York City, London, Reykjavik, and so on, and it’d be impossible to visit a culinary city like Paris and not indulge our taste buds on a food tour!

Whether you want to sample savory French cuisine or go right for the sweet stuff, these are the top food and wine tours in Paris!
