If you want lunch built in
The main Marais tour includes a sit-down bistro lunch, a pastrami sandwich, chocolates, pastry, cheese and two half glasses of wine, and is described as covering a full meal.
If you want lighter bites
The other Marais tour is a run of small tastings, from croque monsieur and poutine à la française to chouquettes, macarons, French toast and ice cream. Guests describe it as finger food rather than a full meal, and a smaller group of ten.
If you would rather climb a hill
The Montmartre tour starts at Place Blanche and climbs towards Sacré-Cœur with seven tasting stops of pastries, cheese, wine, charcuterie and chocolate.
Diets and access
The main Marais tour is not suitable for vegans, gluten intolerance, wheelchairs or strollers. The Montmartre tour is not for children under four or wheelchair users; the lighter Marais walk is shown as wheelchair accessible.
Prices and languages
Fares differ by date and group, so check the live price on each card. The Marais tours run in English, and the lighter Marais walk also runs in French.
Cancelling
Each of the three can be cancelled free up to 24 hours ahead and can be reserved without paying today, so there is no rush to decide.
