    Fun tour
    Really fun tour with great beer spots. Guide was very knowledgeable about beer and the history of beer in France. He also knew a lot about France and the history that you can ask about at any point. Tour included two beer tastings at each location and some cheese and bread at the end. It’s a really great way to know about beer in Paris! Had a great time!

    A unique craft beer experience in Paris!
    Being an American and looking for great beer in Paris can be difficult. This tour provided us not only with the small craft beer spots we were looking for, but fantastic local craft beers that were a great representation of the culture here as well as some with the hoppy tastes we were looking for. The guide was amazing in that we had a great history lesson walking to each spot as well as great conversation and even out side the box recommendations. We went back to one of the beer venues the next night and even a restaurant recommendation as well. A great intimate beer tour that got down to the craft level we were looking for with a friendly and knowledgeable guide, we highly recommend!

    Best Tour!
    This was one of our family’s’ favorite activity on our trip! Johnny was so knowledgeable and fun to hang out with! He even gave us a dinner reservation recommendation that we used that night and had the best time! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone I know visiting Paris!

    Cannot recommend highly enough!
    What a fantastic experience! I scheduled this for the first day in Paris to encourage me to stay up (because I really really like beer). What I received was a solo tour with Johnny who equally loves his beer served alongside insightful Parisian history! We visited three beer bars all serving French craft brew, in really cool parts of the city. The bars were awesome, the beers delicious, and Johnny is an extraordinary host. Santé!

    Excellent walk through the Paris craft beer scene. Wonderful little bars I wouldn’t have otherwise gone to and Jonny was a great guide, sharing his knowledge of not just the French beer scene but layering in French history as well.

    This is a must do for Craft Beer lovers.
    This was a great experience. The guide was knowledge in French culture. He also was really informative when it came to the Craft Beer culture in France as well. As we sat there enjoying a beer it was to learn more about Paris. I would suggest to everyone who is interested in Craft beer and France.

    An enjoyable introduction to French artisan beers
    This was a very enjoyable tour! Jonny was friendly, welcoming and very knowledgeable about the beers and the various artisan breweries. I am a bit of a novice when it comes to craft beers, so this tour was an excellent way to whet the appetite and make me want to explore more. Thank you!

    Macarons picnic in the park
    What more can you ask for? We booked this tour for our 10yo daughter who loves macarons. It was the highlight of her trip. She loved scoring the macarons at the end and the history our guide gave us along the way. He was fantastic. After the tour we went back to our first and favorite stop and bought more macarons. They remembered us and we're happy to hear they were our favorite.

    There is beer in France
    Fun and interesting beer tour. Beer making and drinking is a part of the Frances history. Nice to experience and learn about a part of their culture that most people don’t seem to be aware of.

    Great beer adventure!
    Johnny was great! His knowledge of beer and the history related to it was delivered in a fun and informative way. We went to 3 unique breweries and sampled several different types of beer. We had great, friendly conversations and enjoyed cheese and bread at one brewery! It was delicious! Johnny was able to grab us a table when the place was packed. Johnny is a fun and upbeat guy who really enjoys interacting with people.

My grandma and I had such a spectacular time with Johnny as he brought us to the shops. He was very informative and gave interesting fun facts all along. He is very personable and the tour was relaxing, fun, and was a great introduction to the area. We had a picnic in Luxembourg Gardens to eat all of the delicious macarons and I would highly recommend this tour!

The macaron tasting tour was equal parts delicious and informative of the history of the Saint-Germain de Prés area - including the close connection of the area to the formation of the United States. Our guide, Johnny, had a deep knowledge of the history of the area and of the growth of the macaron industry. Instead of simply going to each store and tasting, he packed our selections in a cooler bag and took us to sit in the shade on the grass at the Jardin de Luxembourg to compare each selection side-by-side. It was a great way to really see and taste the difference. We would highly recommend.

A pleasant stroll through a beautiful, historic part of town with a great tour guide, plus a good opportunity to try Macarons from several different shops.

Ended up being a private tour with my wife and I. Got lots of interesting info on the part of town we toured at our own pace. After collecting different macarons, we sat at a beautiful spot at the Luxembourg gardens to enjoy them. Took great photos all around town. Exceeded my expectations.
