Paris · DRINKING TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 14 bar crawls worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Meet guides such as Amine, Omar, or Kevin in Châtelet, then walk to two or three central bars and Café Oz Châtelet. You get a shot with your first drink at each bar, reduced drink prices, group games, and skip-the-line club entry. It suits adults who want company on a night out.
“Everything was great. I met good and nice people. Omar was a great host btw. I’ll come again”
Start near Rue de la Huchette, then follow a local guide through Latin Quarter bars, past Notre Dame and the Seine, to Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Expect free entry, one shot with each purchased drink, a group photo at the Panthéon, and a final dance club. Guides may include Emma, Archi, Sharon, or Melanie.
“Sharon, our guide, was super nice and approachable! She gave us clear instructions and answered all our questions. The group size was small enough so everyone can enjoy the small bars/clubs. The shots at the end of each pub/club was an added bonus, 5/5 would recommend even as a solo traveller like myself. I did not once fear for my safety as Sharon took care of all of us :)”
Meet your English-speaking guide outside Filles du Calvaires Metro and visit two secret Paris bars, with a possible third stop. Expect hidden doors, passwords, creative cocktails, beer or wine depending on your option, and a friendly international group.
“This tour was the highlight of my trip! Nel was a gracious guide that made everyone feel welcome. I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone :)”
Meet your English-speaking guide at Place de la République, then walk to three Paris speakeasies. Guides such as Marc, Natalia, Felix, and Dadhet lead small groups of up to seven, help with drink choices, and share more nightlife tips. Drinks are purchased separately.
“Amazing tour with Marc. He was so welcoming and made sure everyone in the group was comfortable and having a good time. His knowledge on the tour was great and his energy was amazing! Loved all the places he took us!”
Join Omar and his team at 9 pm for a four-hour Paris nightlife crawl aimed at adults 18 and older. Visit local bars, enjoy free shots and drink discounts, meet other people, and finish with VIP club entry. Bring photo ID, and check the meeting details carefully before setting out.
“The reviews that said the guide didn’t show up were from a time when they had two different addresses. They’re all set now. It was a great time! Thank you!”
Start near Place de la République and visit two or three Paris speakeasies with guides such as Marc, Natalia, Felix, or Dadhet. Expect secret doors, restaurant back rooms, creative drinks, and a small group of up to seven. Entry is included, but food and drinks cost extra.
“Fun tour and Natalia was a friendly and fun host. Speakeasy was great! Drinks were delicious. Highly recommended!”
Meet your guide at McBrides Irish Pub on Rue Saint-Denis for a social night through two bars and one or two clubs. You’ll get three or four shots, walk between venues, and finish at Café Oz. Hosts such as Amine help solo visitors and groups connect, though the evening can feel loosely managed.
“Honestly, I was considering skipping the pub crawl because I was by myself and feeling a bit anxious. I’m so glad I decided to go! I quickly connected with a few other solo travelers and some groups, and the night turned out to be a blast! I also assumed that since it was a Tuesday, it might be quiet, but the bars were lively, and there were at least 20 people on the crawl, which made it a lot of fun! The club at the end wasn’t quite the vibe we were looking for, so the friends I made that night and I went to another pub instead. But overall,…”
Spend about two hours with an English-speaking host exploring two secret bars around République. Expect coded entrances, hidden passages, and cocktails, beer, wine, shots, or soft drinks purchased separately. Guides such as Felix, Maëva, and Mohona are known for making solo visitors and couples feel at ease.
“My favorite part was the rooftop bar that Felix took us to. It was amazing! I definitely got to see some places in Paris, that I never would’ve been able to find on my own.”
Spend about five hours moving from Generator Paris through Belleville bars and on to Point Éphémère. You’ll get four free shots, discounted drinks, games, and entry to each venue. Meet at 9:00 PM in a green-shirted guide at Generator Hostel.
“I was not able to attend. There were 2 starting times and 2 different address listed for meeting. Either way the coordination and relay of information was poor.”
At Kimikocraftparis, Kim guides up to eight people through a hands-on workshop to make a scented candle shaped like a favorite drink. All materials are supplied, English instruction is available, and you take your finished candle home after about 1 hour 50 minutes.
“I have a Experience the charm of Paris while learning the art of floral design with preserved flowers. Led by skilled instructors, this intimate workshop offers personalized guidance for crafting stunning bouquets. So happy with this activity”
You and up to nine companions pedal a private bar bike from Avenue de la Grande Armée through Trocadéro, Foch Garden, the Arc de Triomphe, and the Champs Elysées. A driver handles the route, drinks are included, and guides such as Mouss keep the hour lively.
“Er is niemand komen opdagen, dus ik wil graag mijn geld terug”
Travel from Paris to Bruges in a Mercedes vehicle with a group of up to seven. Your day includes a two-hour guided walk, lunch time, six beer tastings, a canal cruise, Choco-Story, and hotel drop-off. Guides may include Valerie, Rustam, or Patrick.
“We were so excited to visit this cute town, and we were not disappointed in the town of Bruges! Our disappointment came from a couple of reasons. First, our walking tour guide was over 30 minutes late, chewing into the limited time we had there since it is a 3 1/2 hour ride from Paris. Our guide let us know multiple times he did not sleep well and his stomach was upset- I felt badly for him, but there wasn’t much I could do. Our other disappointment came from the amount of time and activities scheduled. There simply isn’t enough time to do everything on this itinerary. We were rushed…”
Join an English, French, Italian, Arabic, Korean, or Spanish-speaking guide at Bull’s Brothers Pub for a 4.5-hour New Year’s Eve crawl. You’ll visit two bars, enjoy a welcome shot and drink deals, then skip the club line for a night of dancing in Paris’ Latin Quarter.
Travel from Paris to Brussels in a private air-conditioned vehicle for up to three people. Your guide builds the day around Grand Place, Manneken Pis, Belgian chocolate, waffles, and optional beer tasting. The long drive makes this best for a first Brussels visit when convenience matters most.
“Our tour guide/ driver did not show up. We stood and waited for our trip for an hour. The company could not find us another trip similar. Very disappointed in the service. We waisted our entire day because of this.”
Pick a monument, a quarter or a table.
