We had a great guide (Arturo) who was very knowledgeable and personable. We had a great time learning and trying the best Pastry and chocolate Paris has to offer as well as discovering new locations we plan to revisit on our trip.

We realized this was going to be a great tour when Sam, our guide, handed us a big, chocolate filled croissant at the start of the walk. She had lots of information to share and showed us wonderful places with amazing pastries. Every stop was different, with a good selection of various types of sweets. Suggestion - don't eat a big breakfast before going on this tour! Sam has lived in Paris for several years, so has a good range of information to share.

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 guests who prefer non-caffeinated drinks. Unfortunately, due to the nature of French pastries, this tour is not ideal for gluten- or dairy-free diets.
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.
