Cooking Vacations In Paris (Ile de France)

The tastiest way to experience Paris and the Ile de France region is on our Paris food tours!

Paris, the capital of the region of Ile de France, needs no introduction. Known as the “city of lights,” Paris is full of history, monuments, and museums. Originally an ancient city, Paris became the major city of medieval Europe, a center of arts, commerce, and religion. Its present day aesthetic is largely due to the 19th-century restructuring that widened the streets and created new squares and parks. The number of things to do and see while experiencing our Paris food tours and our culinary tours of Paris is staggering! The museums include some of the best in the world: the Louvre, the Musee d’Orsay, the centre Pompidou, the Picasso Museum, Rodin Museum, to name but a few. The monuments include the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Pantheon. The religious sites? Notre Dame, Sacré-Coeur, the Sainte-Chapelle. Not to mention the parks, palaces, shopping districts, and quaint neighborhoods, all of which you can explore during our Paris food tours and our wine tours of Paris and the surrounding Ile de France.

French Cuisine on Our Paris Food Tours

The French cuisine you will explore on our Paris food tours, and the wines you will taste on our wine tours in Paris and the Ile de France, range from refined haute cuisine and Grand Cru wines, to hearty, simple regional fare with robust house wines from family wineries. There is no limit to the flavors you can explore and learn to create during our best food tours of Paris.

We offer the best food tours in Paris France as well as wonderful Paris wine tours and wine tastings in the Ile de France region, but often our culinary travelers to other regions want to add on at least a few days exploring Paris and its surroundings on our Paris food tours. We are happy to create a custom food or wine tour in Paris (or the Ile de France), whether it is for one day or one week!
