"We went as a family of 4, with 2 kids aged 4 and 7.
We asked our 4 year old what he liked most about the tour and he said “macarons!”
gelsomina was able to adjust our meeting spot and locations on the fly based on what we wanted to experience, and how hungry we were. We got a variety of basic to unique sweets, even some we had never heard of before. We liked that she focused on local establishments (not laduree or Pierre herme).
She was also great for families, and understood how to balance walking with routing through a park and types of places to keep both kids and parents engaged in the cuisine. She introduced just enough history to engage our 7 year old. The pace of the tour was good, and didn’t feel like too much walking given our young kids, but if we were a group of all adults I’m sure she would have covered more ground.

"We had a lovely food tour of Monmartre with Olivia! Olivia is really engaging, friendly, and a great conversationalist and she has lots of knowledge of the area that gave us cool insights and history while we enjoyed lots of delicious pit stops for local food and drink.
We loved chatting with Olivia and hearing all about the Parisian lifestyle and returned in the following days to some of the places she took us to, including a top tier cheese monger.
Highly recommend! "
"We did this as a group of 11 for a bachelorette weekend and it was one of my favourite things we did the whole trip. Nella was a great guide, super knowledgeable and fun and very patient with us.
The stops were all places we never would have found ourselves and the pastries were delicious. The pacing was good and we learned loads about the history of the Marais. Great format for a group. Highly recommend!"
Dreaming of buttery croissants and delicate macarons? Dive into the world of Parisian pastry! Our private pastry tours unlock the city's sweetest secrets, taking you to the best patisseries in Paris.
The History of Parisian Pastry
Did you know the iconic croissant isn't originally French? It was inspired by the Austrian 'kipferl' and brought to Paris in the 1830s. Parisian bakers later perfected it with puff pastry!
A Cultural Pastry Tradition
Experience the French 'goûter,' a cherished afternoon snack tradition. Around 4 PM, Parisians pause for a sweet treat, often a delicious pastry like a pain au chocolat from their local boulangerie.
Paris's Famous Macaron Pastry
The macaron, a symbol of Parisian pastry elegance, has a long history. These delicate almond meringue cookies were perfected in the 20th century by Ladurée, who first sandwiched them with ganache.
A Legendary Pastry Chef
Meet Marie-Antoine Carême, a pioneer of French pastry in the 19th century. He was famous for his elaborate confectionery creations, elevating pastry from a simple treat to a true art form.
The Perfect Parisian Éclair Pastry
The éclair, meaning 'flash of lightning' in French, is a classic choux pastry filled with cream and topped with icing. It is said to be named for being eaten in a flash! A must-try on any pastry tour.

Gierdre is the best
"Our tour guide Gierdre adjusted our tour to visit a neighbourhoid we had not been before in Paris. She knew great little places to stop- not the average tourist destinations but unique experiences and photo locations that only a local would know. And she constantly added history and context to our tour. Very friendly and stylish guide who we highly recommend . "
"Ali made sure we got to try the very best of everything Paris had to offer. The best cheese, bread, macaron, meringue, croissant, coffee, jam - it was amazing! He added so much knowledge as to the why the specific locations and what went into making it. The blind jam tasting was my daughter’s favorite experience. I would highly recommend you choose Ali."
"Alexia was great from pre-tour communication though the very last stop and morsel of delicious food she found for us along the way. She knew all there was to know to impress us about Montmartre, the culture, and the artistic history of the area. She was fun to shop for treats with and made some great recommendations which we all enjoyed. "
"Anna was great! She arrived on time for our scheduled meeting. She allowed us the option to walk or use the metro. She asked us what our preferences were for food options and told us some history about the neighborhoods we were walking through. We thoroughly enjoyed our guided tour with her and would highly recommend her. "
"What can I say?
You get to hang out with a pro, who take you to cool spots in Paris, and helps with understanding photography.
A+
Thank you, Pauleen!"
"We booked a foodie tour with Anukool at short notice and embarked upon an afternoon of culture, food and history. It was a great three hours and Anukool was an amazing host who never rushed you, explained points of interests and shared some fab foodie places with us.
Thank you.
Would highly recommend Anukool. "
