We had a great time! Our family was the only ones on the tour so we received a very personalized tour. I was shocked by the number of shops we visited. There were so many in a small area. Our guide was great. She had great knowledge about why certain shops made certain things and what they were known for. She even took us into a cheese shop which was a great change of pace. She also showed us the Bon Marche grocery store - oh my - that was amazing. We had another tour to run to but I wish we had more time to hang around Saint-Germain.

Tour was a great way to explore Saint Germain and all the wonderful chocolate and pastry shops. Tibu was great! He definitely knew this area and all the fascinating historical details along with some great sightseeing facts. All the chocolates were to die for and the pastries were just as tasty! Next time we will definitely try the one in the Marais district.

Our guide was fantastic. Entertaining and informative giving not just a tour of excellent chocolate and pastry shops but a history of the area. Hotels that housed Nazi officers in WWII, churches and interesting history of suburbs and shopping centres was provided.
