About this tour

Discover the craft behind a classic French pastry in this hands-on Paris croissant-making class. Over three hours, an instructor guides you through preparing dough and folding it to create the delicate layers that make croissants light and fluffy.

Once the pastries come out of the oven, enjoy them with coffee, tea, or fruit juice. The small-group class is limited to eight people, giving you room to follow each step and ask questions as you work. You’ll leave with a takeaway box of 5 to 6 croissants and an electronic copy of the English recipes. Required equipment and attire are provided.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.96 from 130 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Paris
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.8. Top 4% in Paris means it ranks in the top 4% of tours in Paris by this score.
