Le Marais Paris family tours are the walks and rides whose listings speak to children directly: child fares, free places for the youngest, strollers allowed and child seats on one bike ride. The rules differ on each.
A child band for ages 6 to 10 and an infant band up to 5, a seated main course so small legs get a rest, and strollers are fine. Not for vegans, anyone lactose intolerant or anyone with a severe food allergy.
From $104 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Ninety minutes to two hours, short enough for young legs, with a child band for ages 4 to 12. Strollers and wheelchairs are both fine. No food is in the fare, so plan a snack stop afterwards.
From $50 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Child seats for ages 1 to 4 and tandem attachments for ages 5 to 9, reserved when you book; from 10 everyone rides alone. Every child needs a paid place. About an hour of the four is spent in the Marais.
From $52 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.

Check availabilityA family-friendly tour here is one whose listing speaks to your children directly. It sells you a child fare, lets your youngest in free, accepts your stroller, or, on one bike ride, fits a child seat to your bike. We picked these walks for what their listings say, not for how they look.
The rules run both ways. The private Secret Food Tours walk is for adults only, and the four-hour Jewish history walk sets a minimum age of 11. The food walks that state a drinking age set it at 18, so your teenager gets a soft drink with the cheese.
Eating Europe sells a child band from 4 to 12 and a youth band from 13 to 17. Do Eat Better has a child band from 6 to 10 and an infant band up to 5. Paris Always Walk has a child band from 4 to 12. The Intrepid walk calls itself child-friendly and takes under-sixes free.
Under-fours on Eating Europe, under-sixes on Intrepid. On Eating Europe the free place comes without food, so a small child shares yours.
You can bring a stroller on the Intrepid, Eating Europe, Do Eat Better and Paris Always Walk tours. Eating Europe and Paris Always Walk take wheelchairs too.
Paris Always Walk takes ninety minutes to two hours, and Intrepid two. That is about as long as your young child will walk before the questions turn to snacks.
Eating Europe has a sit-down stop on the royal square, and Do Eat Better serves a seated main course. A table halfway through gives you and your children a rest on a three-hour food walk.
Here are the rules side by side, from the listings' own age bands.
| Family-friendly walks | Walks with age limits | |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum age | None stated | 11 on the four-hour walk; 18 on one private walk |
| The youngest | Free under 4 or under 6, or an infant band | Not taken |
| Child fares | Bands from 4 to 12, or 6 to 10 | None |
| Strollers | Accepted on most | Accepted on the four-hour walk |
| Wine | Adults only; soft drinks for children | Adults only |
| How long | 1.5 to 4 hours | 3.5 to 4 hours |
Your teenagers are welcome on most walks. It is the wine, not the walk, that stops at 18.
Two hours and about 2 km on foot, under-sixes free, strollers accepted. A merveilleux from a local bakery is in the fare.
