What to expect
Expect to be on your feet for the full four hours, moving between historic plazas, churches, and market halls in central Toulouse. At each stop, Chef Alejandro will explain the site's backstory—Roman foundations, medieval guilds, Renaissance wealth—then plate up a dish that reflects local tradition. You'll eat standing or walking, so bring sturdy shoes. The tour culminates at the covered market, where you'll see where locals still source their ingredients. Alcoholic drinks flow throughout; notify ahead if you prefer otherwise or have allergies.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes and clothes you don't mind standing in for four hours. Maximum group size is 10. Alert the operator 24 hours ahead of any food allergies, dietary needs, or if you don't drink alcohol. The route is wheelchair accessible, but eating on your feet may challenge some mobility needs.
