Hands-on, delicious fun - a highlight of our trip! - Absolutely delightful experience! We were warmly greeted by Mourad with fresh, delicious baked goods. He welcomed us into the bakery as if it was his own home. His energy was fun and engaging. Our group had several chances to get our hands dirty making all sorts of Parisian baked goods - from croissants to baguettes and more. My teen boys had a wonderful time and Mourad was a natural with them. We would highly recommend this to anyone - old or young. It was truly a delight!

Bakery Fun - A totally fun and delightful experience at the bakery. Our host, Mourad, taught us how to make baguettes, boules, croissants and financiers pastry. And, he shared recipes! Had a great time. We would highly recommend this bakery tour.

Fun baking tour in an actual bakery kitchen - Mourad is an excellent guide. He is very personable and knowledgeable and made our tour fun. We highly recommend this tour, especially because the baking is done in an actual bakery and you can see how the professionals make the breads and desserts.

Cool experience! - The class was a cool experience not only learning about aspects of baking but also the history and evolution of such. It was a cool experience. The host was really nice, funny and ensured everyone had a good time. O was there solo with a group that was together. He ensured to accommodate to make sure I didn’t feel left out or as if I was an intruder on their experience. I really appreciated that. The staff at the bakery were very nice and accommodating as well.

French Bakery tour was the best! - Balthasar was my guide and he was amazing and so interesting! He made sure everyone could participate, he was very knowlegable, and sent us home with a good amount of what we had helped make. We got to roll croissants, make viennoiserie (pastries), explained the difference between baguettes and traditionells, showed us how to cut the two different kinds of bread before baking, and introduced us to the different kinds of bakery workers. We had an eight year old Charlotte in our group, and he was excellent with involving her. I highly recommend this tour and tour guide - I completely enjoyed it! Felicitations for Balthasar!!!

Awesome behind the scenes Paris bakery tour. - The experience at La Boulangerie Julien was stellar. Our guide was friendly and helpful as were the employees of the bakery that we met along the way. I learned a great deal about how a bakery is run and also enjoyed the hands on experience of baking bread. It was a small group with great fellow tourists. I was sent away with bags full of freshly baked delicious bread and even some pastries. I would give it five stars for sure. It was even better than I anticipated. However, my experience with Viator gets a one star. They sent so many reminder texts and emails leading up the the date. They sent the promised location information---but texts said the pick up point was at a hotel and the app said it was at the bakery. All I needed was a simple answer to tell me which one was correct. I screen shot the two conflicting messages and sent them by text, email and through the app. I got absolutely no reply from anyone for 2 days even as I kept asking. I finally reached a human in Massachusetts who was in an unrelated department. He was unable to answer the question with confidence so I decided to just pay a cab fare and show up at the bakery. All was well once I got there but again, a simple answer would have eliminated the stress. Viator is not getting my business again.
