Great Time

I got tickets to this as both a valentine's day gift for my chocoholic husband as well as a birthday gift for my sister-in-law. We all went together and had a great time. Discovered some wonderful new places and just really enjoyed spending the day out together in this manner. Aside from the fact that all the chocolate along the way was absolutely divine, the tour itself is a very original and fun way to spend an afternoon in mid-town.

The tour exceeded my expectations and I loved it!
Fri, Feb 15, 08   12:00 PM loveyurman Female 20-29 Combination Couple on a Date
I didn't think five small chocolate shops in New York would have so much history to offer and such delicious chocolates! I'm glad I set my expectations low because it was a nice surprise, but even if they had been high, I would've been equally impressed!! I highly recommend this tour to anyone of any age! The tour guide was very enthusiastic and provided interesting information that I will actually hold on to! The tour group was very friendly and a good crowd to be around. The eleven block walk seemed to take only a few minutes because there was constant conversation and great information. In addition, the chocolate was outstanding! Certain shops allowed us to pick our own chocolate - based on recommendations of course - and the suggestions were great. I feel like the value from this tour was unbelievable and I would definitely go again.

Fantastic!

The tour was so much fun! I wasn't sure what it was going to be like as a single person joining the group, but I had a great time. Our tour guide Bert was awesome, not only knowledgeable but super friendly. I felt no pressure to buy from the stores we visited and I didn't feel rushed going through the tour either. The actual places we visited were very nice and welcoming, and Bert was very helpful in helping us choose which chocolates to taste and just answering our questions. I'll definitely look into checking out the other tours!

Great Tour
Fri, Feb 8, 08   3:30 PM karenkennedy Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Great tour, very informative, learned a lot about the history of chocolate, where it is grown, how it evolved. Especially loved the tastings and pairing the chocolate with wine as well as the variety of types of chocolate and other pastries. We have recommended this tour to several of our friends who would like to take the same tour when next they are in New York.

I enjoyed the chocolate tour. The chocolate is amazing and the stores are adorable. However, the tour guide is amazing. I would take any tour that he gives. He is personably, charming, and hilarious. I recommend this tour HIGHLY!

This was a great Christmas gift from my husband.
Sat, Jan 12, 08   12:00 PM andymeans Female 50-59 Local Couple on a Date
I absolutely loved this chocolate tasting tour! My husband and I both had a great time sampling the various chocolates,and learning about the manufacturing process. Our tour guide, Bert, was very congenial and knowledgeable, and did a great job in making the tour a success. The shops that we visited had chocolates from different countries, each with their own individual tastes and designs. It was amazing how many kinds of flavors and combinations of ingredients there are. It gave us a whole new appreciation for the "art" of chocolate. There were seven people in our group, all of whom were very friendly, and bound together by the love of chocolate. We had a good time chatting with each other as we walked from shop to shop. One individual in our group was from Brazil and was in the chocolate manufacturing business. He was able to add to Bert's already informative discussions. The weather was cool but comfortable, the pace was excellent with well timed stops along the way. The chocolate was delicious, and just enough of it so that there was no guilt, especially with the calories burned by walking. All in all, a great experience! I really love my husband for giving this to me for Christmas!

FABULOUS Fun

The New Cuisine Chocolate Tour is about as much fun as one can legally have - and this from someone who doesn't particularly like chocolate! (I chose it as a birthday gift for a chocoholic friend.) The tour guide was terrific - charming, as full of information as enthusiasm, and a wonderfully pleasant companion and guide. The places we visited provided a variety of styles, architecture, and amibance as well as fabulous tastes, and the walk from LES to Soho was delightful. Basically two perfect hours.

Good food and knowledgeable guide

I booked this tour but being the only person signed up, it was canceled (the tour requires a minimum of 2 ppl to run). However, I was offered the Union Square Chocolate, Wine & Culture Tour, which was excellent. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, which made the whole thing fun. The choice of ventures was good as well. I especially enjoyed the second shop.

The two hour tour was a delight. I had heard of the various chocolate shops in New York but had never experienced them. Our guide, Burt, was enthusiastic and well informed. He had done his homework and was quite knowledgeable about chocolate. The samplings in the five shops were extraordinary--tasting everything from coconut to chipolte, traditional as well as more unusual flavors. This was a birthday present to my husband and we all enjoyed it. Creative and unique!

Fantastic Tour
Sat, Dec 29, 07   12:00 PM llreilly Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I got tickets to this tour for my Dad for Christmas, knowing how much he loves and appreciates chocolate I thought this would be the perfect gift. It was. The tour guide, Bert, was both a delight to be around and remarkably knowledgable about chocolate and the histories of each of the locations we visited. There was great variety between the 5 chocolatiers we visited and they all had delicious chocolate. This would be a wonderful tour for anyone who enjoys chocolate!

Exposed to a new world
Sat, Dec 22, 07   12:00 PM maissoon Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My friends and I attended the NYC luxury chocolate tour on Dec. 22nd. Our tour guy Burt was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It was evident that he enjoys what he does and was able to share that enthusiasm with us. He had some good recommendations and took us to some unique places. Loved Richart and Piere Marcolino. It was a pretty cold day but the walk was not bad at all, even with lots of tourists around. Great idea to recommend taking a bottle of water with you. I couldn't eat any more chocolate by the last stop but I did learn about new stores that I could refer friends to and which I would definitely visit again in the future. Definitely a tour for serious chocolate lovers only.
