About this tour

Explore Saint-Germain-des-Prés, where artists, writers, and bohemians have gathered for generations. This 3-hour Paris Saint-Germain food and history walking tour pairs the neighborhood’s storied streets with a generous taste of French culinary tradition.

Admire Haussmannian façades, discover cafés favored by writers in the early 1900s, and stroll along one of the area’s last medieval streets. Along the way, step behind the scenes at one of Paris’s oldest bakeries. Tastings bring the neighborhood to life: sample a macaron, traditional sourdough bread, salted butter caramel, and a pastry with hot chocolate from an award-winning cocoa specialist. At a local covered market, enjoy a glass of wine with cheese and charcuterie, including truffled selections.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
TourTruth score 9.1 out of 10
