Highly recommend - Really fun and informative. You aren’t making anything from scratch but will get some great hands on experience and good information for your own baking. This bakery is not a tourist attraction but a real parisian shop Our guide Igor was amazing and took great care of us.

Pierre was fantastic - Chef Pierre was fantastic. Alia(sp) took pictures and photos to airdrop after the event of me and my family so that I could participate. It was a very quaint bakery in the 5th arrondissement and neighborhood had several cute local shops to visit before and after the tour. We got dessert and a beverage complimentary in addition to keeping the baked goods we made. We also purchased a ton of goodies thereafter. Wear slip proof shoes and know you’re be going up and down a few steps.

Great baking experience for families visiting Paris - Pierre was a fantastic host and we had a great time learning about the bakery and getting some hands on experience with baguettes and croissants. My two children (6 and 8 years old) very much enjoyed the experience.

A great change of pace - Martin gave us a great experience at the bakery. We learned how the baguettes are made as well as croissants and other pastries. The hands on was fun and we got to enjoy the results of our work. A nice change from seeing all the sites.

I am a home baker so I... - I am a home baker so I was keen to explore a commercial bakery. It was fascinating to get a glimpse into how Chez Manon manages to produce 1600+ perfect baguettes daily. Our guide was super friendly and did a great job explaining everything. The baguettes I shaped and baked were delicious for dinner that night.
