We are teaming up with one of our favorite Canadian tour companies, Flavours of Paris to offer you a “Sweet Tour” around some of the most delectable and sugary sites around the city.

Touring around the St. Germain area you will become enticed by the assortment of decadent pastries, rich chocolates and the well known Alsatian strudel that is perfect for sampling. For those of you not familiar with this delicacy it is simply a strudel made with apples, pears or other fruit from the Alsace region of France, it is mouthwatering!

We cannot forget the classic french Crepe! You will also be guided to a remarkable creperie, where you will sink your teeth into their specialty crepe that is served with salted caramel sauce and a refreshing glass of homemade cider! Are you getting hungry yet?
