Chocolate 101

| This tour (the NYC Luxury Chocolate Tour) was my formal introduction to the theme of chocolate. Although I have tasted a LOT of chocolate throughout the years, it is the first time I have been instructed in the basics and amplitude of the subject. The walk was nice, as it takes place on the Upper East Side, although I would recommend this tour for a time when the city is less crowded. The chocolate tasting was absolutely fantastic. It is the best chocolate I have ever tasted, both in liquid and solid form. The information provided by the guide was detailed, practical and entertaining, although a little lacking in accuracy (one of the chocolatiers visited was hailed as the seller of the most expensive chocolate in the world, although I found out later in Forbes that it is not... it is one of the top ten, though) and he was very amenable, courteous and friendly. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and worth every penny. I will be doing the SoHo tour next time. | ||||||

| The 2.5 hour walking tour was very special. The guide was informative and entertaining, I learned a lot about chocolate in general and chocolate making in NYC. You get to choose 2 chocolates to taste at 5 different shops, we also tasted some exquisite hot chocolate. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Jan from Canada | ||||||

| The chocolate tour was one of the highlights of our long weekend trip. Bert was an amazingly knowledgeable and extremely personable guide who explained each shop's specialties along with its history and character. The samples were exquisite and we enjoyed each shop's unique offerings. We did return to a couple shops later to purchase chocolates we had tasted or to choose something entirely different. Thanks you for allowing us to experience a totally unique side of New York City! I can't wait to return to New York and do the Soho Chocolate Tour next! Highly and enthusiastically recommended! | ||||||

| I loved this tour and so did my friends. At frist I thought it was too expensive but I love chocolate so I opened my mind and said let's do it. The guide ,Bert, was great and his knowledge of chocolate was even better. I WAS only a milk chocolate person before this tour. I tried the dark chocolate and was amazed at what good dark chocolate can taste like. Walking made it seem like we were following a trail of chocolate from one place to the next. I was very glad that we went and would do it again when we come back to New York | ||||||

| This was my THIRD chocolate adventure with Bert! And, as usual, the experience was entertaining and educational and well worth my precious time while visiting the best city in the world! The chocolatiers we visitied seemed enthusiastic about the opportunity to tell us about their products and the addition of bakery thoughts was a nice new wrinkle. If you haven't discovered the Union Square neighborhood yet, this tour is a must just to get Bert's perspective of this incredibly interesting part of NYC ...to say nothing about the delicious port served at our first stop!! | ||||||

| I wasn't quite sure what kind of a tour this would be, but was impressed with the knowledge of the surrounding area that our tour guide had. He was charming and very personable. Except for the chocolate company that we visited that actually made the chocolate on the premises we had no contact with anyone other then the counter people who gave us the chocolate upon our arrival. By the time we arrived at our final destination I wasn't really interested in tasting any more chocolate. I love chocolate, but was more interested in the interesting information that we learned on the way. | ||||||

| Our guide, Bert, was welcoming and solicitous throughout the tour, and he was very helpful about other places to see in New York. The chocolates were out of this world. | ||||||

| We throughly enjoyed this chocolate tour. Burt was extremely informative and very nice. The two hours flew by! Burt answered everyone's questions and provided much fun along the way to the chocolate shops. We looked so forward to this activity and it far exceeded our expectations. We can hardly wait to return to NYC to take the other chocolate tour Burt does. Even if you aren't a fan of chocolate, you need to take the tour to meet Burt, he was so much fun. | ||||||

| My mom and I took a chance on this excursion and had a fabulous time! I'd never heard of such a tour, but knew it was for us. Our guide was so fun and engaging and informative and relaxed- just a pleasure. I loved Maribelle's shop the best for being luxurious and having the best sipping chocolate. I liked the last place (?) because the other couple on our tour got engaged! It was very romantic and exciting. I would recommend this tour to out of towners looking to do something unorthodox, and also to local NYers looking for something new to do! A new way to see a familiar city. | ||||||

| I recently took this tour and was very happy with the whole experience! I've had some of the chocolate makers they take you to on the tour but had never been to visit them. It was interesting to see their facilities and chat with the chocolatiers. Our guide was fun, friendly, and very knowledgeable. I must warn you though, this tour involves a LOT of chocolate, you gotta pace yourself, don't make the same mistake I did... | ||||||
