Paris Local Market & Bastille District Food Tasting Tour
Overview
Follow the scent of buttery croissants and the buzz of local chatter into one of Paris’s best-kept secrets: the legendary Marché d’Aligre.
Nestled in the shadow of Bastille, this is where real Parisians start their day, with strong espresso, a flaky pastry, and an opinion about cheese. On this immersive morning tour, a fun local foodie will lead you through open-air chaos, covered market treasures, and historic backstreets.
You’ll taste artisan cheeses, sip boutique wine by old wine barrels, meet passionate vendors, and see why this market is the loudest, tastiest, and most beloved in the city. Come hungry. Come curious. And maybe cancel lunch plans.
