What to expect
Expect a leisurely three-hour amble through dense pastry territory, stopping every 10–15 minutes at carefully chosen shops. You'll taste your way through six or more stations, each showcasing a different French pâtisserie tradition. Your guide, a Parisian regular, weaves neighbourhood anecdotes and food heritage into the walk, making it as much about the streets as the sugar. The final stop is unhurried—you'll sit properly in a period tea salon rather than grab and go. Portions are tasting-sized, designed to let you sample widely without overload.
