Great way to start your Paris adventure! - This was a great experience for our family (with a 7 year old). Everything was easy to do and fun for our son. We left with BAGS of bread and treats!

One of three that worked out! - This was awesome. Particularly because the other two bookings that we made on Viator were scams (one was to the top of the Eiffel Tower, and the other was for musey de orsey, where you needed special tickets for the first Sunday of the month and the ones we purchased through Viator did not count) the bakery experience, however, was amazing! I would highly recommend

Great French Bakery Experience - Excellent experience! Celine-our guide was friendly and accommodating. The price included a lovely breakfast with assorted pastries and choice of coffee/tea/ hot chocolate! We learnt how Baguette and other breads were made, as well as croissant and other little cakes- and we got to make some ourselves and take them home! After the tour Celine called a cab for us and stayed with us till it arrived! Would absolutely recommend this activity! Be aware.. definitely not an activity for people with disabilities as there is alot of very steep stairs back of house that you need to climb up and down.

Family Fun - Our host, David, was informative and entertaining. He was great with the children in our group. We learned a lot about how the bakery operates. Hands on experience for everyone making bread and rolling croissants. Taking home our creations was delicious!

I was hopping to learn... - I was hopping to learn the recipes or the history. I think it ain’t a bakery class it more on how bakeries fonction. However the host was extremely nice and generous

Fun making baked goods - The actual tour of bakery and making baked goods was fantastic. Unfortunately, we had a guide doing her first bakery experience and she did not know the info. Thankfully, the bakers were gracious and provided her info to relay to us. Would have been a 5 with a guide who knew the tour info.
