Explore the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district on a guided tour and sample a variety of culinary specialties from local artisans!
You'll meet your guide in front of the Saint Germain-des-Prés church before beginning a small-group tour of the district.
Throughout your visit, you'll enjoy your guide's many anecdotes and comments, historical, cultural, and gastronomic.
Your first stop will be at an artisanal jam store where you'll put your senses to the test by performing a "blind test". You'll taste several jars and try to guess the sometimes atypical flavors of certain jams.
You'll continue your itinerary via the Cours du Commerce Saint-André, still accompanied by your guide, who will this time take you to an olive oil store to discover the flavors of Provence.
You'll then head to a pastry chef titled "Meilleur Ouvrier de France", where you can choose a pastry to enjoy, as well as two squares of chocolate.
You'll continue this culinary experience by discovering a restaurant in which you'll share a dish (variable according to the day's menu and availability) accompanied by a glass of wine.
You'll end the guided tour with a tasting of cheeses from southeastern France in a typical Paris cheese cellar (3h tour option - at extra charge).
You'll enjoy a total of 4 stops and 9 tastings if you select the 2h tour and 5 stops and 10 tastings when taking the 3h tour, all at the best artisans in the neighborhood.
All along this discovery of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, you'll taste local products from short circuits, in a sustainable tourism approach. Our partner is a local company committed to promoting French know-how.
