| I found that the tour was a little too generic. Our guide was very informative on the different shops we went to, explaining the differences between each. However I feel that more demonstrations would have made the tour more interesting. Even if we saw the tempering process it would have been more than just eating chocolates. The other thing is we both found the time a little off. It would be more amenable to have the tour after the lunch hour. |

| Our tour guide's name was Bert. He was very easy going, very familiar with his subject ( chocolate). Our group were all adults which was very nice. All in all a very nice NY moment. I would definitely recommend to others ( I already have). |

| Loved this tour more tradtional chocolates and was able to see the history. Bert our tour guide was wonderful. Enjoyed it so much that I booked the Soho NEw Cuisine chocolate tour the next day. Two very different types of flavor not to mention style.
if you are serious about chocolate you should take this tour.

| I really enjoyed the tour. We got to sample two pieces of chocolate-usually our choice-from the five different chocolate shops,so you didn't get a chocolate over dose. The shops were all very different from one another,like one was English,and another was French. Different combinations too. One place had a tomato and basil based chocolate,which was interesting. Good pace,each place gave a little talk of its founder,and we learnt a bit about what to look for in a good quality chocolate. |

| This was so much fun! Who knew there were so many chocolate shops within the same area? And our guide, Bert, was absolutely delightful- funny, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject which made the tour so much more. Thank you very much! |

| We had a great time. Bert (our guide) was very social and knowledgeable about the different shops. He was even able to keep the attention of my 12 year old daughter and her two friends. The only thing I would do differently is the last stop. It was a long walk at the end of the tour and frankly, the shopkeeper didn't seem friendly and the chocolate, in my opinion, was not worth the walk. |

| LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the chocolate tour. We learned so much about chocolate. Who knew?!?!? It was fun, educational, and best of all delicious. Getting to test all the delcious chocolates was so much fun. It's so hard to eat the stuff off the shelves now because this chocolate was so good. Our guide, Bert, was friendly, extremely knowlegdable, and made the afternoon delightful. We had a great group celebrating birthdays, anniversarys, and even an new engagement. It was fabulous. We would certainly recommend this tour and if/when we make it back we plan on going again. :-)
