In France, the apéro is more than just a pre-dinner drink — it’s a cherished ritual of sharing food, drinks, and conversation. This unique walking food tour brings that tradition to life in a moving, immersive experience through one of Paris’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

Designed and hosted by a local architect, urban planner, foodie, and long-time resident of the Canal Saint-Martin, this experience invites you to discover the city through a truly insider’s lens — far from the tourist crowds.

Over the course of three hours, participants are guided through the charming streets of the Canal Saint-Martin district. Along the way, they’ll uncover hidden gems, hear stories about the area’s rich history, evolving identity and meet passionate local artisans.

The tour includes:

• 6 curated tasting stops: 3 food tastings (cheese, sweet & savory bites) and 3 drinks (including wine and local specialties)
• A final toast by the water to end the walk on a festive note
• Insights into the neighborhood’s architecture, street art, and local life

Meeting point: Square Frédérick-Lemaître, near Métro République (lines 3, 5, 8, 9, and 11)

This experience brought to you by Canal Food Walk is for travelers seeking authenticity, connection, and a taste of Paris off the beaten path. Intimate, generous, and full of surprises — it’s more than a food tour, it’s a moment to share.
