Great experience, learn butter and cheesemaking
This tour is a very brief introduction to the museum and history of cheesemaking, information about types and sources of cheese and then a classroom, hands on experience. Our instructor Pierre was charming, informative and funny. His instructions were clear and everyone participated. At the end we ate our new butter and cheese.

Highly recommend for a fun experience you will enjoy
Highly recommend!!! Was a fun and informative experience- phillipe was so nice and made the class fun and shared his knowledge and experience- the butter was to die for!!!

Such a fun and tasty way to spend a morning!
Loved everything about this tour. We made butter and cheese. Lola was our instructor and she taught us the science behind how both were made. After we sampled two different cheeses with French bread and had a glass of red wine. So fun!

Lola and the class were really great. We learned a lot, worked a little, and we had a lot of fun! She was a great teacher!

It was ok.
It was fun. The wine and cheese pairing portion was very disappointing. We each received about 3oz of wine and 3 pieces of cheese each. There should have been a better discussion about pairing and had more cheese. The pieces were so small it was barely a taste. For this to be put on by the cheese museum, they sure were light on the cheese. Not a good way to sell your product. On the plus side Lola was a doll. Very personable and made the class interactive.
Response from the operator: Dear Jamie, Thank you for taking the time to share your review — feedback like yours helps us improve. We always pay close attention to offering generous portions of cheese and wine, so we're sorry to hear you felt this wasn't the case during your visit. We'll look into it. We noticed your review focused on the cheese tasting and wine pairing at the end, but didn't mention the butter and cheesemaking workshop itself. Perhaps you came in with different expectations for that part of the experience? If so, next time we'd warmly recommend our Cheese & Wine Tasting class — it features a wider selection of cheeses and wines, along with plenty to learn about pairing them. 😉 Best, The Museum Team

Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paris.
How much does Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paris is not rushed.
Is Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 165 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Paris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting?
+
Around 58 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paris can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paris and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paris within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paris?
+
Paris rewards travelers who book ahead. The headline museums sell timed entry weeks out, the best food walks cap at eight people, and the Seine cruises that are worth doing are the ones that leave after sunset. Everything below is scored by the Outty Ranking so you can tell a genuine local favorite from a coach-tour filler in a single glance. On Outty we rank every Paris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Paris City Center Free Walking Tour (Tip-Based), Louvre Museum Premium Guided Tour 6 GUESTS MAX Entry Included, Louvre Museum Essential Guided Tour Semi Private 6 GUESTS MAX. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paris?
+
April to June and September to October, when queues thin out and terraces stay open late. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paris?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Butter and cheesemaking Workshop with Wine and Cheese Tasting?
+

+
