Paris Sweet Paris tour company

I%26#39;m looking for some feedback for this tour company: www.parissweetparis.com.





I am looking for a private food tour for 4 adults. I wrote to one of the Rick Steves recommended tour guides (Elizabeth Van Hest), and received a reply from one of her colleagues, Muguet Becharat. I%26#39;ve never heard of her, and I couldn%26#39;t find any reviews on here for either parissweetparis or Muguet.





Has anyone ever done one of their tours? Please provide a review. How was it? Detailed? Boring? Interesting? I%26#39;m considering a 3-hour private tour with bread, pastries and chocolate in the St. Germain district.





Thanks, all!

We did an expanded tour with Muguet, and thought it was wonderful. I highly recommend Parissweetparis for private food tours. We started with the 3 hour chocolate shop tour, visiting approximately 6 shops, with samples in all, including Polaine bread. I had asked Muguet to extend the tour and add a cheese/wine shop. She readily agreed, and she showed us a great area near our hotel that had an open market 3 days/week, plus an excellent cheese and wine shop. She also took us through a market street (I can%26#39;t remember which one, but it wasn%26#39;t Rue Cler), where we bought wine. The shopkeepers opened the bottle for us, gave us plastic cups, and sent us on our way. With the Polaine bread and cheese we had bought earlier, we had a wonderful picnic!
