| Took the gf for her bday - she loved it. I'm not much of a chocolate fan, but there were some delicious treats, interesting stops and leftovers to take home (tough to eat all the chocolate they provide). Our tour guide was great. I didn't love walking around midtown east in a group of nine people on a Saturday though. Certainly worth it otherwise. |

Yummy!

| The Chocolate Tour was very good. We went to 5 different chocolate places and tried different types of chocolates and hot chocolates. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about all the different types of chocolates and also gave us some tips on things to do and eat in the city. |

| We really enjoyed the tour. We had a great guide who was very informative about where chocolate comes from, how it is made and the differences between regions. We tasted many chocolates throughout the day and found a couple of shops we would not have found on our own. I was not a chocoholic before this tour (I went mainly for my husband and daughter) but there is a least one shop I will have to go back to every time I am in NY.
A couple of tips for those taking the tour, bring a bottle of water to drink in between shops and a couple of napkins. |

| The tour was great as was our guide Bert. He was very well informed and gave us a lot of information. We ate so much chocolate that even a chocoholic like me didn't feel like having any more after the tour. We did some walking but it wasn't too much. I would definately recommend the tour to anyone that loves chocolate. |

| What a terrific way to spend an afternoon in NYC. Bert, our guide was great, friendly, knowledgeable and down to earth. Favorite spots were Neuhaus, Charbonnel,and La Maison. Appreciated the extra touches some made in preparing for our arrival, showed terrific customer service. We learned so much about the process of chocolate making from the ground up. We most liked learning about the differences in mass versus private production. We now a have a whole new library of places to visit for a special treat. We highly recommend this tour for something different. I even recommend this for all gentleman younger and older as a date idea. Trust me, women love chocolate and this is a completely original idea... you will make big points!

| The tour was great! The tour guide was even better! He was very knowledgeable, friendly, enthusiastic, and a pleasure to listen to. Lots of information on chocolate that I didn't know about, and the chocolate at each shop was wonderful. |

| Absolutely amazing!!!!!! Bert is the best tour guide in the world. Ask him about the toilet in the Chrysler building. One piece of advice, bring something to drink to wash down all the chocolate. |
