Le Bon Marche was the first department store in the world to open in 1852, and is famous today for la Grande Épicerie: the best food shopping in Paris.
The chic and very exclusive food market has an astonishing array of gourmet food products, both fresh and packaged. You will navigate through the overwhelming selection of foods with your private guide who will be more than happy to give you recommendations and ideas for purchases catered to your taste and desires…not to mention help to translate labels, give you serving suggestions and/or recipe ideas to go with the products that interest you.
The tour ends at one of the market’s outstanding food stands for a tasting and drink of your choice (seafood, truffle specialties, or a bakery/patisserie) along with some lively conversation with your guide.

The Château de Fontainebleau, just 35 miles southeast of central Paris, can proudly claim to have been a sovereign residence for eight centuries. Capétiens, Valois, Bourbons, Bonaparte and Orléans, all members of French ruling dynasties, have lived within these walls. The chateau dates back to 1137—and centuries of royals have expanded this former royal hunting lodge to a more than 1,500-room estate. Most of what you’ll see dates back to the 16th century, a combination of Italian Renaissance art and French design, these rooms are some of the most intricate and breathtaking in France. If times allows, you can enjoy lunch in this charming area.
Tour Length: 5 – 6 hours
