My husband and I absolutely loved this tour! We joined in mid-September with Zahra as our host, and it was the perfect start to our time in Avignon. Zahra was amazing! Warm, knowledgeable, and full of great tips. My husband especially enjoyed the architecture and history she shared along the way. We met fellow travelers from around the world (Brits, Australians, and Americans), which made it even more fun. The time flew by, and the food was simply delicious. We tried candies, honey, cheeses, tapenades, desserts and more! I highly (!!) recommend doing this on your first day in Avignon to get a lay of the land and insider tips for shopping and exploring. I dropped some map pins and went back for the best souvenirs and gifts the next day. Zahra seems to know everyone and every great spot in town, so she can customize suggestions to your interests, just ask! It wasn’t just about eating, we also learned why Avignon’s food is so special and how it’s prepared. Wear comfortable shoes, bring a water bottle, and immerse yourself. You’ll leave having tasted something new and memorable, I promise. Thank you, Zahra, for a fantastic experience. We would happily do it again!

The tour starts with a visit to Les Halles where we sampled bread and some olive spreads and olive oil. The market itself is very nice and it would have been a better experience to have some time to see the whole market. From there we went to a cafe on the edge of the square and had a choice of two quiches or pizza. That came with a fresh salad and a glass of wine. From there we sampled some nougat and then to another location for a tart of our choice amongst five flavors. Then in the heat of the day we walked to a place with callisons and nougat and a taste of lavender syrup. The guide was a lovely young woman who was very pleasant but I thought the tour was light on information and knowledge of Provençal cuisine.

The tour was very good. An opportunity to explore the city while sampling some tasty food. Our guide was personable, helpful, and took an active interest in the group members.

Our host was amazing! Clara was fun, informative and engaging. The food was blah! Little samples of things we could have walk into the store ourselves and sampled. and then a quiche and simple salad for dinner. We experienced more unique food exploring on our own. And was disappointed to have a basic quiche for one of our dinners in France. We have had a food tour in another country that explored the more unique flavors of the region. I was hoping for that with this tour.

The food was yummy but as we reversed the town, we would have liked to hear about some the history of it, or the restaurants chosen or the food.
