Very tasty and Informing

We had an awesome guide (Burt) and we were very informed in all the aspects of chocolate. Would recommend it to visitors as well as locals.

was at pickup early but the tour missed me
Sat, Sep 20, 08   12:00 PM kb1381 Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
I was there early, very much looking forward to the tour, but somehow I missed it. I swear I was there, looking around, waiting for some one to make some type of announcement or hold a sign or something. No dice. But when I called the lady (who was very nice btw) with the company, I was told that 12 other people were had been picked up and they all made the tour! Was the tour walking or riding on a bus? Just curious. One problem could be that Sacks fifth avenue has at least 2 exits. Perhaps in future you could specify which one? I was walking back and forth between them, so as not to miss the tour, and maybe I missed the tour that way? Also, maybe you could have your tour person make some kind of announcement or something to ensure that everyone gets picked up? I guess if no one else has this problem then maybe it's me. :) Anyway, have a nice life.

Great tour!

Bert (the tour guide) was friendly and extremely knowlegable. The tour group was a good size. The chocolate is amazing and I learned a lot! The only down side was that if you take a tour in the warm weather you cannot bring chocolate home as easily. I am already planning my next tour. Don't eat a big lunch before the chocolate tour!

A Great Way to Explore New Places
Fri, Aug 29, 08   3:30 PM tverrett Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
I really enjoyed the balance of chocolate and non-chocolate items since you can get worn out from so much sweet deliciousness! Tour was fun, social, great guide, nice places and amazing food. Highly recommend this to anyone who lives in another neighborhood. I'll certainly be back to some of the locations when I visit in the future.

Great tour, great service
Fri, Jul 18, 08   12:00 PM Tojusi Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We took the tour on a very hot day in mid-July 2008. For whatever reason, the other participants (not our party) had cancelled - leaving just the two of us with the guide. It was very professional of them not to cancel the whole tour. This left us to enjoy a "private tour". The tour is nice - there is some walking but the distances are not great. The chocolate shops are high-quality. There are 5 shops, and the tour includes 2 pieces of chocolate at each shop. And that is plenty! Plus, there is the opportunity to purchase...

Great Time was had by All - Highly Recommend!
Sat, Jun 21, 08   12:00 PM rpeets Female 30-39 Combination Family Without Children
My sister and I took the luxury chocolate tour yesterday, on a weekend getaway in the city. It was FANTASTIC! Our tour guide, Bert, was knowledgeable, friendly, and very flexible. He gave us detail about each of the shops we visited, and answered all of the group's questions. He enjoys giving the tour, and it's obvious to the participants - he enjoys what he does, and he's good at it! I know a lot about chocolate already, but I learned some things that I didn't know from Bert. He was very patient whenever anyone wanted to browse or purchase, but he kept the tour moving along so no one got bored. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who enjoys eating quality chocolate, whether you live in the city or are just visiting. I plan on not only trying the other Zerve tours, but taking this one again sometime!!

A little Too expensive

I would say this tour should be around $40.

Bert + Fine Chocolate = Perfection!
Sat, May 31, 08   12:00 PM manwarrens Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband treated me to a weekend in NY and this luxury chocolate tour. I didn't know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised! We were joined by two other couples and loved that the group was small. It kept things intimate. Our tour guide, Bert ,was knowledgeable and friendly. He gets an A++ for customer service and his ability to connect with us all and guide us through the city. I was impressed with the history he shared of each place we visited as well as the 'little known' facts and bits of trivia he shared on the chocolate industry. This guy knows his stuff! Bert has a great report with each shoppe we were in and we were treated well by everyone! Best of all... the chocolate. It was divine! I have never tasted such wonderful chocolate. How can I go back to Nestle or Hershey after this? Bert, fine chocolate and NYC have ruined me for life! :) Thank you all for a wonderful experience. I have already recommended you to my friends!

This was such a fun way to spend a day in New York! We enjoyed learning about the wide world of chocolate in such personal way. Our tour guide was very knowlegdeable, personable, and fun. As we walked from store to store he also gave us other great information about the city. We would do a food tour again!!! We highly recommend this tour and we can't wait to do more on our next trip!

Great Tour Despite the Rain
Fri, May 16, 08   3:30 PM annlane Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The tour was wonderful, even in the rain! Loved the pairing of wine and chocolate. This is the second tour I've been on with this company. Both times we had Bert as our tour guide. He is excellent. He offers wonderful tidbits about the city between stops. Would highly recommend this one & the luxury chocolate tour. Can't wait to do the New Cuisine tour too.

Good for chocolate lovers.
Sat, May 3, 08   12:00 PM MKMaloney Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Based on the website my wife and I decided to take this tour. Our tour guide (Bert) is who really made the tour worth while. He was both knowledgeable and fun to chat with. We went to five different high-end chocolatiers andr eceived tastes at each place along with some history lessons. The tour was a bit on the pricey side. However, we had fun and would recommend it to anyone who loves chocolate.

Great thing to do in New York City!
Sat, May 3, 08   12:00 PM itnuit Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
This tour was a lot of fun. Lots of amazing chocolate, a great group ambiance and some nice strolling along Fifth Avenue and the Upper East Side. Each shop had incredible chocolate, and it was great to learn about the different techniques and styles for making good chocolate. Overall a great, fun, original thing to do in the city. Can't wait to go back and try their other tours!

Awesome time!
Fri, Apr 4, 08   12:00 PM Nolzgal Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My 2 friends and I had a blast on the luxury chocolate tour, and it was mostly due to our awesome guide, Bert. He was super friendly and personable, very knowledgeable and easy-going. We went to 5 chocolate shops and each one was excellent. We received 2 samples of chocolate at each - well worth the price of the tour. If you have a larger group (we had 10), allow 2.5 to 3 hours for the tour. It was a unique and delicious new way to discover NYC. Good times!

Happy Chocolate Lover

I am an avid chocoholic and loved this tour. It took me to some usual locations in New York City and I experienced some very tasty treats. The tour guide was great. He made it a lot of fun. He was very knowledgeable about the chocolate and New York City. This tour does involve some walking if you are not used to that.
