This tour is a must do to complete your Paris experience! Silvia was so personable. Because she lives in this neighborhood, the local market and shops came alive for us. She introduced us to both the people and the local flavors. We sampled delicious meats, cheeses, pastries (of course croissants!), produce, coffees and concluded in an adorable little wine shop! When I travel, I like to experience the flavor of the area. Silvia with her passion and knowledge gave us both a full belly and a memory that will last a lifetime. You will not be disappointed. Bon appetite!

Sylvia was outstanding! Her energy, knowledge, preparedness, attitude and top choice pics to visit were the Best! She definitely was a TOP highlight of our visit.

Silvia is a true gem! We went from complete strangers to friends in a matter of moments - so comfortable to spend time with her exploring her neighborhood, eating amazing food, and taking notes on all the best places from a local! I'm so glad the tour was in the beginning of our trip. She even let us in on the Invaders all over the city, which made the rest of our time in Paris (and even in Rome) so fun for my 11 year old!

What a wonderful experience for my two sons and me. Silvia is a splendid host — charming, warm, and caring. We toured the neighborhood and ate so many wonderful things - pain au chocolate, cheese, meats, fruit, and a wonderful sweet treat. And she introduced us to a delicious pickled garlic. Her love for the neighborhood was infectious. We’ve done a lot of food tours while traveling internationally, but this was one of our best.

Silvia is the BEST tour guide! We ate delicious food, learned about a local neighborhood that’s not overrun by tourists, enjoyed a relaxed pace and had interesting conversations. Taking a tour with Silvia feels like you have a foodie friend in Paris showing you around her favorite spots. If you are considering one of her tours, don’t hesitate to book!

Die Tour beim Marché Aligre war ein ganz besonderes Highlight meines Urlaubs im Paris. Wir haben viel über die Stadt und die Gegend erfahren, gleichzeitig die leckersten Köstlichkeiten probiert, eine super nette Zeit in der kleinen Gruppe verbracht und sowohl Markstände, als auch kleine Shops kennengelernt, die zum Teil echte Geheimtips sind! Vielen Dank liebe Silvia und hoffentlich bis zum nächsten Mal!

My very first food tour, ever, was with Silvia in the Latin Quarter area. She blended local shops, history and food, into a delightful concoction of experiences and delightful surprises for us to sample and savor. We had the best croissants the city had to offer, beouf bourguignon, crepes, cheese, baguettes, fresh strawberries & wine. A small dessert of a special meringue was a perfect ending to her tour. We all laughed, shared stories and had a wonderful time with Silvia!! I would definitely recommend her for a creme de la creme food tour experience.

Our family of four enjoyed an absolutely fantastic tour of Le Marais with Silvia (“Eat, Walk & Discover Le Marais”). Our tour included history, culture, cheese, pastries, fresh fruit, truffles, falafel, beef bourguignon and wine - we left our group stuffed and more knowledgeable about this lovely neighborhood and city. Silvia is the perfect host and provides lots of good suggestions as to where to eat, drink and take in the sights in other areas of the city as well. We would definitely tour with Silvia again! Perfect way to spend the afternoon! ♥️

Silvia put all her energy and enthusiasm into making our food tour very memorable in a location not many tourists would experience coming to Paris. Away from tourism to where the locals live and eat, to the fresh food market and specialty boutique retail kitchens to lure your taste buds.
A delightful person with so much local knowledge, we would highly recommend this unique and very memorable food and wine experience.

From the very first bite to the final farewell, Les Frenchies Silvia Moran Berrout’s Parisian Food Tour was nothing short of unforgettable—and much of that magic was thanks to our incredible guide, whose sparkling personality lit up every cobblestone corner of the city.
The tour itself was a beautifully curated blend of classic flavors and hidden gems.
We wandered through bustling markets of Marche D'Aligre, tasting everything from buttery pain de chocolate croissants fresh out of the oven, sweet fluffy light as air Merveilleux meringue treats and to rich, incredible French cheeses and charcuterie paired with the perfect wine at the cutest little neighborhood wine bar.
Each stop told a story—not just of the food, but of the culture and community behind it.
What truly elevated the experience was our guide. It was easy to see that EVERYONE in the neighborhood loves Silvia.
Silvia is warm, knowledgeable and able to effortlessly turn a group of strangers into a band of curious food lovers.
With contagious enthusiasm, Silvia shared fun historical tidbits, personal anecdotes, and insider tips that made us feel less like tourists and more like locals in-the-know.
Whether we were laughing over flaky pastries or learning the secrets behind the best baguette in Paris, the energy never dipped.
The guide’s passion for Paris and its culinary treasures was as irresistible as the yummy treats we devoured along the way.
If you’re looking for more than just a food tour—something immersive, joyful, and full of heart—this is it. I highly recommend this tour.
Come hungry, bring your curiosity, and prepare to fall in love with Paris one bite at a time with Silvia.
Don’t forget to book this fantastic tour!

We had a wonderful time on our food journey with Silvia! Silvia was friendly, attentive, curious about her guests and very knowledgeable on the topics of France and the history of Paris. We were delighted to see her passion for her community and how she interacted with everyone. Silvia took us to her favorite spots for sweets, bread, coffee, wine and of course the markets (with samples!) - many places we wish we knew about earlier! Like she says in her emails, bring cash for extra market purchases & an empty stomach - we had enough food to carry us over to dinner. At the end of the tour, Silvia sends out a detailed list of all the food you sampled and places visited - a professional touch! We can't wait to join her new tours in Mexico!

Absolutely Fantastic Food Tour in Paris!
Bonjour! Our all-girls group had the most delightful morning exploring the vibrant Marché d’Aligre thanks to our wonderful guide, Silvia. From the moment we met, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and so much fun!
This food tour was an absolute highlight of our trip to Paris. Our guide’s passion for the local cuisine, Paris history and the market itself was infectious. We were introduced to a fantastic selection of fresh fruit, artisanal bread, meats, cheeses and olives.
Beyond the incredible food, the tour took us to some charming local gems. The pain au chocolat was heavenly. We enjoyed fantastic coffee and the light and airy meringue was a delightful sweet treat. The final stop at Le Baron Rouge for a taste of wine and oysters was a fantastic way to round off the experience.
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. It felt like exploring the market with a local friend. We’re already recommending it to anyone visiting Paris and will definitely follow you on Instagram for updates on your tours in Mexico! And thank you for the lovely souvenir!
If you're looking for an authentic and delicious taste of Parisian life, this food tour is an absolute must-do!

What a wonderful experience we had with Silvia as our guide. Not only was she knowledgeable but so fun to be with. I took my granddaughter for her 16th birthday and had mentioned that to Silvia when I booked the tour. Our first “goodie” was a chocolate croissant. Silvia pulled a candle out of her bag and placed it on my granddaughters croissant as we sang Happy Birthday. That was an unexpected and kind surprise! We had such an enjoyable day and the food was delicious! I would highly recommend Silvia as your guide!!! Thanks Silvia, we loved it!

We had such a great time on Sylvia's tour of the Marais district. Sylvia is an absolute delight, so warm and personable, and we thoroughly enjoyed spending time with the other couple on the tour as well. The weather was perfect, and we tried some surprising new favorite foods, as well as some wonderful Paris delicacies. She also showed us so many beautiful landmarks, with stories about each one. Sylvia even sent us an email right after the tour with all the places we tried and some wonderful recommendations for the rest of our visit as well. The afternoon with Sylvia was definitely one of the highlights of our trip, and I can't recommend it enough.

By far the best food & wine tour we have ever been on. Silvia is just amazing! Her knowledge of Paris with its long history and locations, the best places to eat and drink; but more importantly Silvia made us feel like we had known her for years! She is a wonderfully easy going person with a terrific sense of humour and has contributed to making our trip to Paris so memorable! We will most definitely be booking another tour when we return to Paris.

We thoroughly enjoyed Silvia’s Eat, Walk and Discover Le Marais. She gave us a great intro to the Marais, took us to a number of small shops, assembling about half of the food we ate at a wonderful closing meal—not to be missed. We also appreciated that she sent us a list of the places we had stopped at. Her tour was a great way to start our time in Paris.

My husband and I loved our experience yesterday on Silvia’s Off the Beaten Path Food Tour in Eastern Paris. Silvia is such a genuine and kind person. It is clear that she truly loves sharing her neighborhood with others. It was refreshing to see the real Paris away from the tourist areas. I cannot more highly recommend this tour.
Hope you enjoy as much as we did!

I am NOT one for tours. Maybe it’s my nature to want to explore and find adventures on my own, BUT, Silvia and Frenchxican tours was recommended to me by my oldest son……he now’s what I like and he wasn’t wrong with this recommendation. I highly recommend Silvia and this tour is you enjoy, French pastries. French baguettes. Fine coffee. Tours of open air markets, getting a local taste and flair of her neighborhood. Pastries. Cheese…..French cheese…..charcuterie as only the French can do and a local wine bar with the character that you’d only find in Paris. I live in Napa, CA so I know a little about wine atmosphere……the place she took us to you cannot find in Napa. Too bad!!
Oh, on a much more personal note, I had an issue with my first hotel reservation and I reached out to Silvia for a little help…..Again, she came through with flying colors.
Do I recommend this tour? Five stars…..YES! Do I recommend you take this tour just to experience Silvia? 10 stars…..YES!! You will not be disappointed.

My husband, 30 year old daughter, and I were fortunate enough to take Sylvia’s food tour which included one of the oldest markets in Paris in her neighborhood, sampling cheese, meats, coffee, and wine. While all of this all sounds ordinary in Paris, Sylvia brings the area alive with her stories and her love of the Parisian food and way of life. We felt like we were locals, visiting only local places that most tourists would never frequent. I would recommend her tour to anyone visiting Paris for the first time, the 50th time, or if you’re a resident and you want to see Paris through Sylvia’s eyes and pallette.
