Hi everyone. I will be in Paris for 4 nights at the end of March, staying in Saint Germain. Small group food tours have been my favorite way to visit other cities. Can you recommend tours/tour companies for Paris? I would prefer to deal directly with the tour operator, not with a consolidator, if possible. Thank you in advance.

Parisbymouth would be my recommendation also.
I'd avoid Secret Food Tours (The secret was that we knew more about Paris and food than the guide LOL!)

Carol - I signed up for a Secret Food Tour in Scandinavia and they cancelled it while I was walking to the start point! I did however have an excellent Secret Food Tour in Charleston SC. I looked back and realized that the fantastic Trastevere for Foodies food walking tour I took in Rome, which included a pasta making class, was from Eating Europe.
Thank you all for your responses. If anyone can flesh out what they did or didn't like about food tours they took, that would be great.

We took the Eating Europe tour of the Marais in May. It was small group, about 8 of us. The tour explored the history and variety of cuisine in the Marais. We really enjoyed the tour and our guide.

It's been a few years, but our then college-aged daughter said the Secret Food Tours in Paris was her favorite part of the trip.
