5.00We met up with our guide, Jean, right on time and it was a fantastic experience. Jean was an absolute wealth of not only local knowledge about the food and the area, but was also the history of Marseille and its peoples. We thoroughly enjoyed the diversity of the foods and restaurants as well as the easy going and friendly way Jean handled the tour. Couldn’t recommend this tour enough!
Good Food but Limited History and Culture

4.00We are a family who loves to eat and wanted to savor what Marseille has to offer. This was a good, but not great, experience. The first two stops were terrific showcasing the traditions of Marseille with a baked Camembert (with Pastis) and mussels (paired with a great white wine). The last three stops were simpler. The first was for fried sardines and pansies. Even for a simple street food, these were just average. Deserts came from two stops a nice candy store for navettes and an Arab bakery for a wide assortment of baklavas. Both reflected the town’s rich heritage and were delicious. In all, we were left wanting more. I think another stop or two would have made the experience better. Our guide Julia was not a foodie and commented that she only liked three cheeses and was not an adventurous eater. How can you lead a food tour if you do not love food.
Delicious foods

4.00We had a great time. Julie was super friendly and personable and we enjoyed her company very much. Some of the foods were fantastic and one or two things we found a bit not to our liking. Julie gets 5 stars from us.
Our perfect guide

5.00Our guide Laura was very engaging with her vibrant personality. She explained the local fares we shared with passion for the region. It was a great experience. We will use the booking again when returning to Marseille France.
Not a good tour

2.00Unfortunately, this was not a very good tour. After taking 8 food tours in cities in Italy and Greece post this one, it was even more obvious to us how poor this one was. The food was subpar, most especially the experience of the deep fried seafood. Inga was our tour guide and her flighty nature helped to further detract from the overall experience.
