Orangettes, Truffles and Macaroons Oh My! I liked this tour because it was a small group, our guide was very interesting and we ate sweets until our teeth hurt! We went to 7 different shops (chocolatiers, macaroon shop, boulangeries) and tried a variety of French goodies. Our guide gave us recommendations for the best samples to try and was never wrong! I never knew there were so many flavors of chocolate - highly recommend trying violet flavored. The choices at the macaroon shop were also very interesting - I had a combination of foie gras and fig (strangely tasty.) Also a great compliment to the tour was the fact that between shops our guide would point out different buildings and explain the architecture or give some of their history. So while the goodies were delicious and a big highlight of our trip we also learned a lot of interesting facts about Paris that not a lot of the regular conventional tours would have covered.
A very yummy, must do tour. A great way to see the hidden treasures found in the back streets of Paris. Definitely take a "doggy box" to put samples in, you can't eat all that you collect. Our guide was very helpful in ensuring there were samples suitable for our 11 year old, as many chocolates had alcohol in them! A wonderful start to our time in Paris and orientation to Paris.
We ate, smelt and visited the best of the best off Paris's food sold like precious jewels. Wonderful.
A must do for anyone who loves great food. The guide help me discover some new flavours of chocolate. And my favorite french macroons. Sign up for this tour and go hungry,so you can indulge.
Really enjoyed the tour. The guide was fantastic (called Roberto), extremely knowledgeable about everything and very interesting.
Worth doing! you see some great shops and taste some amazing food! the tour guide was really knowledgeable and spoke good english.
Did this tour our first day and loved it! The guide was excellent, the pastries fantastic and the bakery goods heaven. This tour was by far the most popular with our group of 6 girls!!! I spent more on chocolate than anything else.
This is fantastic! Our guide introduced us to all the yummy chocolates and pastries that we would have never found on our own.. It's not located on one street, but spread out on different streets... He brought us to 7 shops and let us chose what type of chocolates/cakes/macaroons we want to bring back (you can choose to eat them at the shop too). My favourite is Pierre Herme macaroons! Yum yums! Join this tour! You will not regret it! :)
This was awesome! Ives was incredible! He took us to some wonderful neighbourhoods in Paris and we sampled the most delicious chocolates and pastries Paris has to offer! This was definitely one of the highlights from our trip. It was great because we went into stores you wouldn't normally go in on your own. Ives was very informative and we had a fantastic time. Would definitely do it again. Thanks Ives!
Our tour guide was fabulous. The chocolate shops, bread shop and seeing the first coffee shop made this tour one of our best. Highly recommend.
It was really impresive. We areb both foddies and the pastries and chocolate we ate opened our palate to another new level. It was worth the time and money. Our tour guide was excellent.
Yummy! Our guide was excellent, and very easy to understand. She answered all of our questions, and we learned a lot about French food and culture. I think we walked enough to counter the calories from the goodies we ate during the tour!
I want more... this tour was a lot of fun and you eat a lot of different chocolates and pastries along the streets of Paris. The walking tour is one not to be missed!
This was a super tour -- the best I had in Paris. We visited several shops and were given samples in each (some that we got to select). I went for the "surprise me' samples and was never disappointed. It was interesting to learn about different techniques to make the chocolate or how the ingredients and process make the items special. We visited 3 or 4 chocolate shops and a bread shop. I wished I had purchased more to take home. Be sure to note the store name or get a card so you can return later if you need to increase your supply. :) I did get slightly sick after the tour ended -- too many sweets, but it was totally worth it. If I did it again, I'd save some samples for later, knowing that I'd return before leaving the city to purchase more items. I recommend taking this tour when you first arrive so you have good knowledge of the area, shops and samples to enjoy while you are there.
My daughter and I loved this tour and certainly was a highlight during our stay in Paris. Marion was a fabulous tour guide not just of Chocolates and Pastries, but little bits of interesting information as we walked along the streets of churches, coffee shops, places of interest as well.
