Private food & history tours in Paris
Your party only, three hours, and a former chef who tells Paris like a screenwriter.
"Sabering champagne bottles and eating our way through the Marais with restaurateur-turned-guide Mathieu was pure joy."
Caitlin Gunther, writer for The New York Times & The Michelin Guide

What guests say
It was the most memorable travel experience we have ever had. It was like being shown around Paris by a very knowledgeable friend.
He has a knack for pointing out the hidden layers of local history that many guides miss.
One of the highlights of our entire trip. I had my 10 month old on the tour and Mat went out of his way to help me.
