How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Indulge in eight-course tasting menus at two Michelin-starred restaurants, and… just kidding! Start your mouth-watering meander at 400-year-old Marché des Enfants Rouges, the oldest covered market in Paris.
Join locals queuing to sample cheeses, charcuterie, and galettes – impossibly thin buckwheat pancakes stuffed with savory fillings – then duck into Edwart Chocolatier Marais for exotic chocolates and relax at a simple sidewalk cafe with crêpes or a macaron.
Stroll narrow streets between boulangeries for buttery, flaky croissants and baguettes done the right way, or have something a little heartier: rich boeuf bourguignon – slow-cooked beef and root vegetable stew – with a glass of French wine, of course.

Our tour of Le Mareis was more than just walking around. Francois provided a deep background on the historic development of the neighborhoods within the area, as well as the various influences upon culture, food, wine and life in Paris. Francois was generous with his time, his knowledge, and his passions for the all things culinary. A rare statement indeed. We immediately felt like students, peers and family.
