Guidekin's take

Walk between Saint-Germain chocolate and pastry shops, tasting macarons, pastries, caramels and chocolate along the way.

A local guide and sweet tastings are included; transport to the meeting point and bottled water are extra, and the walk runs in all weather. 4.73 from 246 reviews at €99 per person for 3h.

In our comparison: #78 of 88 in Food Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
