Discover Paris through its gourmet private tours

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 14, 2011 -- Travelling to Paris always brings a burden of must-dos: climb the Eiffel
Tower, go on a Seine cruise, visit the Louvre museum etc. But since a few
years, foreign travellers are less interested in learning about Paris
history, fashion or arts than by Paris strong food culture.

The private gourmet tour company Tours For Foodies was launched in December
2010 by 2 business partners Alexandre BESOMBES and Carine BEAUVISAGE after
they found that the appetite of travellers for these tours was booming.

"From mid-2010, we have seen the number of gourmet tours skyrocketing:
chocolate tours, cheese tours, gourmet tours, bread-baking tours etc and so
we have decided to launch a company to address this need".

In 9 months of activities, Tours For Foodies has arranged hundreds of
private gourmet tours for its international clients, mostly from the US and
Canada.

"Our best sellers are the chocolate tour and the bread-baking class -
American tourists are very interested in learning how to bake French
croissants and traditional French baguettes, especially with a genuine baker

in a true bakery. But we have also seen an increasing appetite for the
2-hour cheesetasting sessions. Our cheese expert is able to show them the
best cheeses in France, explain how they are produced, what their
specificities are etc. On top of that, he will give them some tips about the
French "Art de Vivre". They learn how to slice properly French cheeses, how
to preserve them in a fridge etc. And they taste around a dozen of different
cheeses - goat cheese, blue cheese etc - in those 2 hours as well".
