too little time for a class in Paris?

Maybe this isn't possible, but I was wondering if anyone who has gone on the BOP tour, Day 3 at Montmartre in the morning, has lunch and afternoon on our own until dinner and the Seine river cruise. I'd like to take a French Bread class at la Cuisine starting at 14:00 until 17:00. Would I have the time? Would I be missing a lot by not staying in the neighborhood? The class is offered another day, after the tour is over, but it is the same time as a macaron class I want to take. Thanks for your help.

You could also call the RS Tour Dept. They might be able to tell you the approximate time the morning Montmartre area visit ends and what time the group usually meets for dinner and Seine river cruise.

I agree with Frank that chatting with the tour office might be a good idea. As it appears on the itinerary, I think that you would have time because our Montmatre tour was over in time for lunch, and we didn't meet for dinners until at least 6, usually. However, the itinerary can be changed for all sorts of reasons, as was ours. Before we even left home the day for Versailles was changed. We had national holiday in the middle of the week, so a museum got switched around. We had rainy weather, so we waited a day for the Seine Cruise. That said, there were some people who had made some other plans during, or around a scheduled event and just let the guide know. She had individual tickets for the boat and you could ask for yours to do on your own.

Thank you both for your help. I wasn't thinking about possible changes in scheduling, so maybe I'll try another class on another day.
