Overview

On this tour, you will taste a curated selection of traditional French specialties, including pâtés en croûte, gougères, charcuteries, tartare, pastries, chocolates, and more, all crafted by expert artisans, including a world champion and a former La Tour d'Argent chef. You’ll also savor a variety of cheeses, paired with natural red, white, and orange wines.

As you explore, you'll pass by Les Invalides and l'Assemblée Nationale, with stunning views of both the Pont Alexandre III and the Eiffel Tower, just minutes from the final stop.
