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!

This was a great time. It was well-organized and it was clear that they had done it before. You could select the color of your shells as well as the flavor that you wanted to make the filling. I did this with my 15yo niece and we both had a great time. Erica was a great teacher.

This was so much fun.

Karla_L, May 2026
This was so much fun. The instructor was friendly and an excellent teacher. She helped when needed and was very encouraging. It was a completely different technique I can’t wait to try at home. I highly recommend.

wonderful experience

Anthony_C, May 2026
The host was very accommodating. They texted a day before reminding us of the appointment time and address and also shared a picture of the exact door to use to access the building. Our host, Ennis, was great with our kids, organized, and made the class a lot of fun for our entire family. The space was clean and had everything we needed. This was a highlight of our trip and we would definitely work with this company again.

Marvelous macaroons

Amanda_B, May 2026
This is an excellent cooking course and well worth every minute of your time in Paris, not to mention penny in your purse!! Highly recommend. A*+

Great class!

Bennett_V, May 2026
We had an excellent time at this class! Our instructor was Guillame, and he was very knowledgeable, worked well with both the adults and kids in the class, and was a fun person to chat with. He also shared with us a list of recommendations for places to go, cafes, and restaurants, so I recommend you sign up for this class early in your trip!

Sara_P, Apr 2026
My kids (8 and 11) had so much fun with this unique experience! Before this booking, I was curious if they would stay engaged for the full 2 hours, as while they love macarons and expressed interest in doing this, they tend to prefer active activities and have minimal baking experience. But they loved it and were so proud of what they created. Highly recommend!!

marc_h, Apr 2026
Tour operator cancelled and sent email apologizing and agreeing to process an immediate refund. 4 weeks later and this as not been done. would not recommend this tour to anyone

Great fun and something...

Katharine_H, Apr 2026
Great fun and something different to the regular sightseeing. My daughter (age 12) thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Small intimate group.

Awesome!

Kellie_M, Apr 2026
Amazing! So fun to learn how to cook the macarons. She made it simple and we have already purchased the ingredients to that our skills once we return home. Great for adults and kids alike!

Not a chef

amydean1, Mar 2026
Making macarons was fun! I don’t think we had an actual chef though . She was nice but class was very basic and no added information, history, etc. Didn’t really learn much and were told the recipes would be given to us after. Macarons did not turn out great, they were overcooked it seemed. Also, class location changed the morning of the class which also meant we had to modify our plans to travel farther for the class. In short fun but not worth the money. Could have learned more from you tube videos or something.

The girl that ran it was good but we were late because there were no signs or anything if we were in right place that was very frustrating

Great experience!

My daughter and I loved our macaron class! Our instructor, Leslie, was wonderful and we were able to take home many macarons to share with family!

Barbara_M, Mar 2026
This was awesome. I was doubtful that my kids could actually successfully make macroons but they did and they tasted great.

Great class, terrible management

samantha_e, Feb 2026
The class itself and the instructor were great. My gripe is late the night before I got a text from management saying that due to an IT issue the class needed to be moved across town which would have been a huge inconvenience for the 5 people in our party. So I wrote back saying I would have to cancel (and really disappoint my kids) and then lo and behold the IT issue was resolved. I since learned this happens frequently with this company. So while we really enjoyed the class, management needs to understand that last minute changes should be kept to a minimum.

We had a wonderful...

Rupal_J, Feb 2026
We had a wonderful experience learning from Lauren. She was wonderful at explaining each step and sharing her passion for baking with us.

Late cancellation

Sarah_O, Feb 2026
The operater canceled three hours before the class. I tried to be understanding but when they asked me to initiate the cancellation it felt very shady

Great afternoon in Paris - must do!

Katherine_O, Feb 2026

Highly recommend!

Angela_E, Dec 2025
We had so much fun. All ingredients were pre-weighed to save time and eliminate measurement error. It was a perfect activity for my 10 and 12 year old.

Our family loved this...

Ann_V, Dec 2025
Our family loved this class! Lauryn was a wonderful instructor, and it was so fun to learn to make macarons. Great family activity.

Great class. Left with full box.

Gerard_B, Nov 2025
It was great. The time went by too quickly. It was a nice intimate group of 8 (a mother/daughter, myself and my husband, and a family with 2 little girls). It was a relaxed atmosphere with great instruction. We had a lot of fun and left with a full box of macarons each.

A must if you want to learn how to make macarons

Nanette_S, Nov 2025
Loved Nogo! A fun class learning all the steps to making authentic macarons. And we got to bring bake a lot back to our hotel. Plus you get the recipe to hopefully recreate (as close as possible😊) your macarons when you get home to impress your friends.

Great experience!

Jennifer_M, Nov 2025
The chef was knowledgeable and professional; she explained everything with clarity and patience. My daughter and I had an experience that I will cherish for a long time. Thank you for making it great!
