| Through the years we have been to NY many times, taking advantage of several different types of tours available. A chocolate tour sounded very different and interesting so we decided to give it a try. We were very warmly greeted by our tour guide who was not only gracious but very knowledgeable about chocolate. He took the time to describe the way chocolate is created and how this differs in individual regions of the world depending on where the beans are produced. He also provided us with information on the unique ways that each chocolatier developed and created his own style for his creations. Each chocolate shop offered each participant the ability to taste two pieces of chocolate and were very accommodating to having us in their shop. I would highly recommend this tour to chocolate lovers everywhere. | ||||||

| Bert was a WONDERFUL tour guide. My boyfriend and I were fortunate to be the only two on the tour. Bert taught us about chocolate as well as many things about NYC that we didn't know. We were visiting a friend who lives in Manhattan but since Bert had been living in NYC for so much longer he really had a lot more interesting things to tell us. The four chocolate shops we visited were awesome! We would have never found them on our own or had any idea how great they were. It was nice that our guide had tried almost all of the chocolates. Usually you want to try something new but don't because you don't really know what your getting yourself into. All of the chocolates we tried were delicious and the hot chocolate we had was BEST I have ever tasted. After the chocolate tour ended, our guide was kind enough to give us directions to a theatre we were headed to and even recommended a couple of his favorite restaurants- which we visited and loved. The money for this tour was well spent. Our stomaches were full from all of the chocolate. If you want to do something fun and different while in NYC, go on this tour! | ||||||

| It was an excellent experience. Our tour guide Bert/Burt, was amazing! I had signed up for the tour with my girlfriend for her Birthday, and before the tour began I wrote a couple of notes regarding food allergies and our reason for the tour. Come the tour date, the first thing our guide did after greeting us was wish my girlfriend a warm happy birthday, which I thought was quality. He clearly knew everything there is to know about chocolate, and made the tour exciting, informative, and fun. These chocolate stores are delicious as well! Definitely unforgettable and to be revisited. Divalicious, Marie Belle, Vosges, Kee, and Jacques Torres are all unique in flavor as well as their personalities. It was a great time, and a very enjoyable 2 hr tour. | ||||||

Benefits of chocolate touring

| Treat the women in your life (wife, girlfriend, mother,daughter, sister, spinster aunt, etc) to this tour and you will be highly regarded. They will forget for the moment that you are just winging it and have no idea what these wacky creatures called women really want from you except they do seem to like chocolate and if you can provide the good stuff then a multitude of sins are forgiven. Be a hero for a change. And you get tasty candy, some harmless exercise, and possibly learn something. | ||||||

| I took my step mom as a gift. She is a real chocoholic. We LOVED the tour. Bert was great. Sometimes tour guides can be cheesy, but Bert was not at all. He was pleasant, informative, fun, and laid back. We had a GREAT time. The chocolate was great. A real fun way to see the city. We ended the day with dinner at Max Brenner. Yum! | ||||||

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. | ||||||

| until we went on the Chocolate Tour. I treated my friend to this tour because she LOVES chocolate. Well, she also loved the tour. We had a wonderful guide who made sure he spent time with everybody. (Who knew there were so many stories about chocolate?) | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| I live in brooklyn and when my mom came to visit we wanted to get to the second tier fun new york. I had an excellent time, Bert is a great guide, gives just enough information about chocolate without getting too technical or boring. Loved all the shops we went to and even enjoyed the 'break" with some cheesecake! would most certainly recommend. | ||||||

| I'm a native NYer for over 30 years and decided to take this tour to do something different. I have to say I was really pleased with the tour. We went to a lot of places I've never heard before and got the background story on the shops and the owners. We also got to try chocolate at each place! Only downside was it was a little pricey, but you did get close personal attention and free chocolate so that was a plus! Definitely check this out if you have time and you love chocolate! This is not a tour of Godiva! This is the real deal! | ||||||

Definitely a Highlight of our NYC Trip

| Our tour guide, Bert, did a wonderful job. He is very knowledgeable, and he wanted to be sure we had a fun, informative tour. We enjoyed the variety of familiar and unfamiliar chocolate tastes. We were amazed there were so many high-end gourmet chocolate stores, and each was interesting and unique. We are recommending Bert and the tour to our friends. | ||||||
