We had a 12 person private that Alexia adapated to our different palettes and energy. She was informative and the stops were all top notch. The perfect amount of back story, history, culture, and local vibe to each experience. We would highly recommend AlexiaIf you are in Paris...DO THIS TOUR

We had a wonderful tour with Alexia, who is a fun and easygoing tour guide. She was very thoughtful about places she took us on an extremely hot day. We had great tasty bits all along and ended up having a picnic in the park. Highly recommend Alexia. A fun tour on a hot day

We did a 3 hour food/tasting tour of the Saint-Germain des pres area with Alexia and enjoyed it very much! We got to see and hear about many places that we would have never discovered on our own. Alexia was very knowledgeable about the area, was an engaging speaker, and asked about our preferences to ensure we were all interested in the things that she covered during the tour. I have already recommended her to two other families who are travelling in Paris this summer, and would definitely seek her out for another tour the next time we are there.Highly Enjoyable Tour with Alexia

We took the Pastery tour with lovely Alexia who skillfully guided us between hidden spots, bakeries and parks in an interesting and fun way. The challange was not the easiest, really warm weather and us already starting the day with another tour and on the day of the festival "the day of the music", that brought half of Paris to the streets, Alexia had done her homework in advance, having multiple bakery options, in case of pasteries beeing sold out and even replanning on the go for a ice cream stop in the heat by choosing the lesser known location to avoid the huge lines at the main shop. The thing that really stood out with the tour was the truely great effort and huge heart Alexia showed during the tour and doing so in a genuin way that made it feel like beeing shown around by a friend. We had a wonderful afternoon with Alexia amongst delicious pastry, magical surroundings and streets filled with music. Choose a few hours, an afternoon or a full day with Alexia showing you arround, you woun´t regret it!Fun guidance with alot of heart and effort

True Marais specialist! Alexia knows the details of the Marais’ history, along with where the best spots are for pastries (gluten free or regular). Lovely to get such a unique perspective on everything from the public buildings to the parks and stunning back alleys you would otherwise miss. Knowledgable and adaptable

Alexia hat mich und meine Familie auf eine Food Tour durch Monmartre mitgenommen. Sie war unglaublich freundlich, hat uns tolle Ecken gezeigt und viele Tipps gegeben. Das Essen war vorrangig Süßes, hier hätte ich mir mehr herzhafte Alternativen und auf dem Weg vielleicht noch einen leckeren Wein gewünscht. Die Kinder hat es aber begeistert ;-) Vielen Dank, wir hatten durch dich einen tollen Tag!! Tolle Führung

We loved our Mountmarte tasting, walking tour for 3 reasons: 1- Alexia, what a gem! And a true local, she was knowledgeable and gave us so many experiences we would never have known on our own. 2- the tastes! Again, nothing we would have known to try as visitors, and new and different things then i’ve tried before. Great balance of sweet and savory. 3-Anecdotes and history, alongside incredible views and sights. Incredible way to experience the city! I would not hesitate to book a tour with Alexia; the perfect way to get to know a new city! Lovely!

Alexia was a delight as she toured us through the charming neighborhood of Montmartre. She made sure to cater the experience to our tastes and was full of stories of the different areas we walked through. She knew the best spots to stop for a little snack (an amazing pastry shop and chocolatier!) and was a huge help in asking for recommendations for the duration of our Paris trip. Alexia is a tremendously thoughtful and knowledgeable guide and we enjoyed our time with her thoroughly!A wonderful tour of Montmartre!!

Alex had a wonderful itinerary planned for us. She sent me about 5 options to choose from and I picked one that ended in and around the neighborhood where we were staying. I also let her know we love food! It was great to be able to tailor our tour to our interests. She took us to a handful of sweets shops with different delicacies along with a shop for us to purchase good pate and cheese. We got a lot of history along the way and got to see a few hidden gems as well. She talked with each of us individually as we walked. She gave us suggestions for the rest of our stay...many of which we have checked off our list. We loved our tour with Alex!Grest walking tour

Thank you so much Alexia for this FoodTour! It was a real pleasure to do the “South” foodtour, really, really gourmet 😍 The quantities are very generous and above all, it's so good! Big +1 to the Niçoise pissaladière, enjoyed over a good beer in the Canal Saint Martin district, and to the Portuguese specialties. We're really traveling around the Mediterranean! Tunisia, Lebanon, Portugal, Côte d'Azur, Italy.... I'm rediscovering this lively neighborhood full of good things Alexia's smiles and great anecdotes at our stops ☺️... I can't recommend it enough! Generous quantities! I can't recommend it enough!

Alexia took our family on an incredible food tour. She really took the time to explain the food culture and history of the Strasbourg-St.Denis neighborhood; it was wonderful and I felt like we really got to learn so much about the city. She was also incredibly kind to our small kids, and flexible with them - we all had a great time and learned a lot. She also gave us wonderful food recommendations for us to explore during the rest of our stay. It was the highlight of our trip to Paris!The highlight of our trip to Paris!

Réservation pour mon partenaire et moi sur le thème Strasbourg Saint-Denis. Expérience incroyable avec la superbe Alexia qui nous a fait découvrir plusieurs cuisines du monde entier. Elle ajoute une petite touche d’histoire avec les différents stops et les lieux emblématiques environnant. Mention spéciale à la pide turc qu’on a mangé et qui était un pur délice. Encore merci pour ce joli food tour 🌸Expérience incroyable
