Excellent
One of the highlights of my trip to Paris! Loved the intimate size of our tour. Sam, our tour guide, was personable and knowledgeable and made the tour fun from start to finish. All of the “bites” we had were wonderful and provided a week’s worth of calories (well worth the indulgence!). Highly recommend this tour!!

Had a wonderful tour with Davide. Lots of interesting stories about the reconstruction of Paris and a fantastic assortment of sweet treats. Favorite was the chocolate at Plaq.

We had a great experience with Davide on this food tour and was able to visit five different places to try desserts and pastries. He told really funny and great stories and we learned about the history of the buildings in this area and about the different districts in Paris. Would recommend this tour to anyone, especially with Davide!

Davide led this amazing tour we did with our family (with our middle school & elementary aged girls) on this chocolate and pastry tour. With 5 stops, we enjoyed plenty of variety of sweets while also learning about some interesting French history— Davide’s humor and expertise made it so entertaining! Highly recommend spending a few hours exploring Paris with Davide!

Know Before You Book Our Paris Pastry Tour
Is this a walking tour of Paris?
Yes! This is a pastry lover's Paris chocolate walking tour through some of Paris’s most beautiful neighborhoods, including historic covered arcades. We cover about 1.5 km (just under 1 mile). We recommend comfortable walking shoes.
What kinds of pastries will we try on this tour?
You’ll taste a curated mix of iconic French sweets—including
pain au chocolat, macarons, seasonal homemade cakes, bean-to-bar chocolate, salted caramel crêpes, and more. We visit both historic institutions and cutting-edge chocolatiers to give you the full Paris pastry experience.
Is this just… a lot of sugar?
We get this a lot! Yes, this is a dessert-forward tour—but it's carefully balanced, with breaks between tastings, sips of and cider, and stories that give your palate (and your camera) time to rest. Most guests say it’s just the right amount of indulgence.
How many tastings are included?
At least 6 sweet stops, with multiple bites at most—including pastries, chocolates, drinks, and more. Many guests tell us it’s more than enough for breakfast and dessert.
What are the most popular pastries in Paris? Will we try them?
We focus on Paris’s most iconic sweets—croissants, macarons, and artisan chocolates—as well as lesser-known specialties you might miss on your own. The tour was even curated with input from a local pastry chef.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?
We can accommodate vegetarians and non-drinkers. Due to the nature of Roman street food, gluten-free options are limited.
Will we be going inside the shops?
Yes! Every stop goes inside—no peeking through windows. We believe tasting is just part of the experience; meeting the people behind the food is what makes it unforgettable.
How big is the group?
We cap our Paris pastry tour at around 10 guests, so it stays intimate, interactive, and easy to navigate—even in the coziest shops.
Is this pastry tour kid-friendly?
Definitely! Families love our Paris pastry tour. While younger kids might not catch every historical detail, the sweets usually win them over pretty quickly.
Is this tour wheelchair accessible?
Unfortunately, this tour route is not fully wheelchair accessible. However, an alternate route can be arranged to accommodate guests in wheelchairs. Please contact our Guest Experience Team to discuss arranging a private tour that meets your accessibility needs.
