About this experience
Le Marais is that rare neighborhood where a Jewish grandmother, a drag queen, and a natural wine sommelier might share a sidewalk. And maybe even a falafel.
This is where buttery croissants meet silky cheeses, where Middle Eastern street food rubs elbows with high-end charcuterie, and where the pastries are so good you'll start looking at real estate in the neighborhood.
Come hungry, come curious, and prepare to taste Paris’ diversity at its peak.
Book your spot now and explore the most delicious corner of Paris with a local guide. Limited spaces available.
