About this tour
Follow the scent of warm pastry and rich chocolate through Paris on a tasting walk made for sweet-toothed travelers. This Paris Pastry and Chocolate Tour pairs beloved French treats with the stories and elegant covered passages that give the city its distinctive charm.
Choose a 2.5-hour small-group walk or a 3.5-hour private experience. Taste a pain au chocolat recognized in France’s 2024 national competition, handmade cakes at Le Valentin, bean-to-bar chocolate from PLAQ, a delicate macaron and a salted-caramel crêpe paired with French cider. Along the way, explore passages including Verdeau, Jouffroy and des Panoramas, with exterior views of nearby landmarks. Your English-speaking guide shares local discoveries and the traditions behind France’s sweets.
The group option includes 6 or more tastings; the private option includes 7 food and drink tastings, a more personalized pace and extra discoveries. Venues and tasting selections may vary, and this is a sweet-food experience rather than a full meal.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- 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. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
