Why take this tour?

Embark on a journey through Paris' fantastic and fascinating pastry scene. This tour takes you away from the well-known and crowded parts of the city and instead visits bakeries that have perfected their art throughout the years. Taste freshly baked croissants that crumble with every bite and melt in your mouth, and hear the unbelievable stories behind some of France's most popular treats. There's no better way to try as many delicious treats as possible in less than three hours! 

With so many boulangeries, patisseries, and cafes lining the streets of Paris, it's hard to know where to begin. Put down your guidebook and set off on a tour that'll give you an even deeper love for French pastries and desserts. This tour is short and sweet, only taking up part of your morning so you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the rest of Paris' delights when you're finished. 
 
Kick off your tour with a true classic: a golden brown croissant at a traditional boulangerie where everything is baked onsite.  
 
Moving on, you'll visit the patisserie of one of France's best pastry chefs and hear the story of how a bicycle race inspired the creation of the Paris-Brest.  
 
Rounding off the first trio of stops is a visit to one of Paris' trendiest boulangeries where locals flock to snap up their irresistible flan parisien
 
After a visit to the famous covered passageways to take photos, you’ll get back to the food at the oldest patisserie in Paris. Bite into colorful macarons and hear where this French dessert actually comes from.  
 
Next, you’ll try a taste of the Brittany region: a traditional French crêpe served with a glass of apple cider.
