Best wine and cheese - This is something that changed my entire life about wine and cheese and if you’re traveling to Paris it is a MUST! Wonderful wonderful experience and I would recommend doing this on your first day in Paris as it changed my wine and cheese experience for the rest of the trip!

Outstanding! - I loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat! We learned so much about cheese: history, regional specialties, cheese making principles, tasting like a pro, wine pairing, and so much more. 7 types of cheese, white and red wine, and a cider.

Cheese Cellar private tasting and wine pairings - This was a favorite stop on our two week vacation. We enjoyed the cheese museum and access to the cellar. We most loved the history of cheese and the wine pairings. Our host was so knowledgeable and passionate about the cheeses and I tried some I had never even heard of before. We had a lovely group of 15 in the private cellar and learned so much!

Fun and Great Learning Experience! - Our history was passionate about cheese. I learned so much about the kinds of cheese. How they make it and of course how to eat it! There was plenty of wine flowing and I learned how to eat cheese with wine and what wine goes with what cheese. I highly recommend this fun activity while in Paris!

Wine, cheese and a bit of history 😍 - This experience was perfect from start to finish. It started in a ‘Cheese cooling room’ where we learned about the process of making cheese as well as little history - before proceeding downstairs to a cellar where we tasted different wines and paired them with cheeses. Pierre was simply the most amazing and attentive host. I’ll be back on my next trip to Paris!

Fantastic Experience - I never realised that I was cutting my cheese all wrong and there is good reason! Learnt so much about the history of cheese in France, how to understand pairings of wine and cheese all in a historic cheese cave beneath Paris. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and Pierre was a fantastic and knowledgeable host. Would recommend this experience to anyone visiting Paris!

Lack of communications - The communication from the vendor was not good at all. We showed up at the original address which is also the address in the Viator app for the event. We were informed that we had been sent an email that told us the address had changed. The email was sent on April 21 and we were traveling and I never received the email. So based on being at the wrong address, we were 45 minutes late getting to the correct address which held up the whole event for all the other people. The wine and cheese pairing portion which we were able to participate in was fine, but we missed all the original parts of talking about cheese and wine introductory talks. All in all, we were very disappointed in the whole event, but mainly due to the miscommunications or lack of communication to relay the change in location. There should always be some form of reply by the customer to ensure that they have received the notification of the change. I did notice today when I went to put in this review that there is a message in the Viator app that tells us about the change change in venue, but I hadn’t used the violator app because I already had my ticket printed out. There should be some other way to make sure that gets pushed so that the customer sees those notifications. Especially because customers could be traveling they should use text messages as they are much more reliable and then require an acknowledgment from the customer
