About this activity

Explore one of Paris's most upscale open-air markets in the 16th arrondissement, steps from the Eiffel Tower, where locals source premium seafood, artisan cheeses, and fresh produce. This 2-hour guided tour combines market discovery with tastings at a neighbourhood patisserie and brasserie, ending at the iconic Trocadéro viewpoint.

Come and discover one of the most luxurious open-air markets in all of Paris, a stone's throw from the Eiffel Tower! The Marché du Président Wilson, surrounded by embassies, high-class apartments and museums, is known for having some of the best products in the entire city. Only occurring on Wednesdays and Saturdays, this market has a reputation for being one of the city's finest; and locals eagerly await the rest of the week to be able to do their shopping there.   

Accompanied by our knowledgeable guide, you will be able to see an incredible selection of seafood, pastries, cheeses, fruits, vegetables, breads, and much more. The tour includes a stop at a nearby pastry shop for a delicious treat as well as a gourmet break at a stylish brasserie, both of which are loved by locals thanks to their incredible selections. You’ll enjoy a crêpe, sip some coffee while sampling fine French pastries, and finish up the tour by getting to see the Eiffel Tower from its best viewing point, la Place de Trocadéro.
