What to expect
You'll move slowly through a local neighbourhood, visiting independent pâtisseries and chocolatiers your guide has personally vetted. At each stop, you'll receive a proper serving—not a thimble portion—and hear the backstory: how a baker sources butter, why lamination matters, what makes single-origin chocolate worth the price. Between tastings, you'll walk off what you've eaten and absorb the rhythm of a real Parisian street. The tour isn't scripted, so conversations with shopkeepers and detours happen naturally. Bring a camera or phone; there's built-in time for capturing what you eat.
