Taste Avignon – A Full French Culinary Tour by Do Eat Better

Our guide Zahra was extremely knowledgeable about Avignon history and the food offerings. She was so very nice and spoke English very well. It was an absolute pleasure to participate. The tasting selections (started 10:45 AM) were varied and delicious and gave us a great sense of the broad array of food available in Avignon. Lunch was delicious. She even gave us a few dinner restaurant suggestions. We tried two of them-the food and service were excellent.

It was so much fun meeting Melissa and the tastings of Avignon foods.....including some for takeaway.

We went to places you would never find on your own.

And, dixcovering delicious dishes that are new to us, such as warm goat cheese with honey to dip with frites.

Thanks Melissa for such a wonderful experience.

Thanks so much,our family really enjoyed the Avignon food tour with Melissa. She engaged so well with all of us, had a great sense of humour and provided us with lots of information about the food we tried and Avignon in general. The food and wine were amazing in particular the tarts were to die for!!. Melissa certainly went the extra mile to ensure we had a good experience. This is a must do tour if you are in Avignon

Zahra led an amazing tour. Not only did we see all of the sites in the historic district, but we ate our way through it (and even brought home dessert for later)! Zahra gave us personal insights and made suggestions of things to do and places to go both in Avignon and in Paris. She was such a pleasure!

Explored Avignon. Zara was an energetic guide and great at highlighting things we don’t see if you don’t look up. She provided several helpful insight to the city for us to continue our exploration of Avignon.

We only had a couple nights in Avignon and decided to do the tour in order to get a locals perspective. Zahra was very knowledgeable and kind. She offered so much information to really give us good insight into the history of Avignon and also general facts about Provence. Would definitely recommend to anyone planning on visiting Avignon.

Zahra was very knowledgeable not only of the history of Avignon but also it's wonderful food and wine. We absolutely enjoyed every moment and she was kind enough to suggest several restaurants for us to go to later. I very much recommend doing this experience.

It was a great combination of a city tour, punctuated with lots of food and drink. Tasted and ate and drank loads of delicious stuff which I wouldn't have normally tried. Warning - don't eat before you go. Loads of food on offer!

This was an excellent day, we staeted with a group of 6, which was not too many. Zahra has excellent knowlledge of Avignon and the surrounding areas. The tour of the city was amazing, informing us of the history, the architechture and the people of the city and of Provence. The food stops she took us too were amazing, off the popular routes, but fantastic. What we tasted in the group of 6, was the best of its type we'd all experienced and at some of the stops we were given choices about what we could sample. If I could rate my favourite dish, but I'd recommend the omlette from the Lasagne stop to anyone (photo), and thats without mentioning the Olive & Tapanada and the Best lemon tart that exists and the noughat shop!! Thanks to Zahra for a super super day. We bought stuff from 2 of the venues on the tour and we may well go back for another slice of that omlette pie.

What a lovely tour! A beautiful combination of historic sightseeing and delicious food. Make sure you arrive hungry, plenty of food is offered. Zahra is incredibly knowledgeable and so ready to share her passion with you.
