Guidekin's take

The evening version of the old town eating walk: a full meal over at least four stops, water and one alcoholic drink included, with non alcoholic options for those who skip wine.

The guide may speak both English and French; guests with severe allergies cannot join. 4.92 from 470 reviews for 3h 30m.

In our comparison: #8 of 12 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
