Fun Macaron Class for Families in Paris, Award Winning

Kristy_D, Apr 2026

We had an excellent...

We had an excellent experience with our teacher Erica. She was engaging and informative and we left with our delicious baked goods and confidence that we can recreate the macarons when we get home! My baking loving 12 year old daughter loved the experience. Thanks Erica!

Award-Winning Paris French Bakery Experience — Le Marais, 4th Arr

Lisa_B, Apr 2026

This is a must do when in Paris!

What a fun way to spend a couple of hours. If you’ve ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes in a French bakery, this is your chance to see it and learn to make French pastries and bread! David was our instructor and he was fantastic! He provided lots of humor as he gently coached us through the steps for preparing madeleines, croissants and bread. The day started with the proprietor of the bakery lavishing us with pastries and cappuccinos (or hot chocolate) as we waited for the lesson to begin. Delicious! We then moved through the many levels inside the building where David provided a really enjoyable experience! He was the best. I highly recommend this one and I definitely recommend David! We had an amazing time!

Paris Evening Cooking Class French Dinner and Market Visit Option

Meredith_P, Mar 2026

An evening of laughter, food, and wine than can’t be beat!

Loved this experience and our chef, Paolo is beyond excellent. I was solo the first 2 days of my trip and thought this would be a fun experience and it totally was. I was solo, but there was a family and a couple who also joined in the fun. We learned to make a 3 course meal. In our class it was cauliflower & fennel soup, coco vin, and poached pears dipped in chocolate. Chef Paolo showed us many tips/tricks and broke things down so as not to be intimidated by these seemingly intimidating dishes. Team work, conversation, laughter, and a wee bit of wine! Time flew by and I was not ready to leave after our dinner. Would 100% recommend this to any and all, no cooking experience required.

A well put together,...

A well put together, great class. It was a lot of fun with our instructor, and a good mix of getting to be creative within the directions and guard rails to ensure that we all were able to successfully make macarons. Even if you have made macarons before, this class is still worth going to!

Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting

Dari_D, Mar 2026

Educational and a delicious experience!

This was a lot of fun, very educational, and delicious! Thomas, was a great host, so knowledgeable and was pleasant to spend a few hours with. I've never made butter before, whisking was a lot of work and delicious! We learned so much about the cheeses of France. There is a museum in a different location you are invited to go to, so save time for that. Thank you Thomas!

Paris Cooking Class and Lunch with Wine plus Market Visit Option

Phillip_G, Jan 2026

Don’t think, just Buy

Worth every penny. If you’re on the fence about doing this cooking class, let this review alleviate any concerns. This was hands down one of the best activities that we did in Paris and one of the best cooking classes I’ve ever taken (and that’s said by someone who always takes cooking classes when they travel). The entire experience was fun, rewarding, and I learned a lot about the science of cooking. Frederick was our host and chef and he was incredible - knowledgeable, funny, warm, and knows how to make everyone feel included. Recommendation 1 is to take the full class with the market tour, it makes the cooking class that much more enjoyable. Recommendation 2 is to not schedule a nice dinner later in the evening when you take this class because you will be full the rest of the day. Potential concerns: allergies / food dislikes. Don’t worry, the chef will ask and take any and all concerns into consideration. They went to the nearby market and bought toasted almond milk to substitute for cream when someone in our group was dairy free. Insanely accommodating. All this to say - buy this class, fit it into your Paris schedule, you will not be disappointed.

Paris Baking Insider Experience near Notre-Dame

Must do!

The bakery tour was a highlight of the trip. Informative, interesting and hands on. The baker we observed was friendly and informative. Our guide, Yeju, was great! She made sure everyone had an opportunity to try everything, kept the tour on track and was funny, informative and kind. Highly recommend.

Somme Battlefields Private Day Trip from Paris with Monash Centre

Anita_V, May 2025

A very moving experience

A day filled with much sadness and pride. Heniere was an extremely knowledgeable tour guide and provided extensive information of the events which lead to WWI. So many Australians lost their lives to ensure our freedom that many take for granted. It is difficult to believe that this beautiful landscape and surroundings of The Somme were once the scene of such utter bloodshed and unbelievable loss of so many human lives.
