I brought my girlfriend for her Birthday. She is passionate about chocolate and I wanted to do something that she would get something out of. She had a great time and although she knows a lot about chocolate she still learned a lot. Myself, not being nearly as studied on the topic had a great time as well.

A Great Birthday Present

The choice of shops was great! It was really interesting to see so many places that I did not know existed even after living in NYC for so many years. It was great to pass by the Lindt and Godiva shops without so much of even a mention. The tour guide was friendly and knew a lot about chocolate. I would suggest this to New Yorkers and visitors as a great "beneath the surface" was to explore NYC.

I took my wife on this tour as part of an anniversary celebration trip to New York. It was wonderful. Bert, our tour guide, was knowledgeable about not only chocolate, but also about the history behind each of the shops we visited. I would definitely attend another tour. The chocolate samples were delectable. My only complaint is we could not have more!

Our tour guide had lots of interesting information about new york and the process of making chocolate. It was a fun way to spend an afternoon. But a little pricey.

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.

We had an awesome guide who was so informative and passionate about chocolate. The samples were awesome and generous. I absolutely loved it and would recommend it to all my traveling friends! I got alot of great ideas on recipes and packaging as I have just started my own chocolate business in Sydney. Thanks, I had a fantastic time.

Great tour and great chocolate!

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...

Informative and enjoyable! I've been on chocolate tours before and learned new things on this one. The places we visited were a good range of different types of chocolatiers.

Chocolate 101
Sat, Nov 24, 07   12:00 PM jmserrano Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
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.

Great Tour with Yummy Treats!

I thoroughly enjoyed the Chocolate Tour that I took with my mom over the Thanksgiving holiday. Our tour guide was great - very knowledgeable and very relaxed. We got to enjoy two pieces of wonderful chocolate at each location and some of the BEST hot chocolate I've ever had in my life! I'll definitely be revisiting those chocolate shops on my next trip to the city! :)

A fun alternative in New York
Sun, Nov 18, 07   12:30 PM jamiehar Male 30-39 International Tourist(s) Other
The chocolate tour was a great way to walk around some of the most interesting and varied parts of new york away from the main Tourist/Shopping areas whilst indulging on the best chocolate. It's a little on the expensive side but then you think about the cost and quality of the chocolate and its not too bad, plus the guide is entertaining and knowledgeable.

What a wonderful, fun, informative day!
Sat, Nov 10, 07   12:00 PM danadallas Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
My girlfriends and I GREATLY enjoyed our tour with Bert. If was very pleasant, easy to talk to, VERY knowledgeable, and made the day a great day. We learned a lot, had great chocolate, and are going to make this a yearly thing! Would it be possible to looking into something similar that would explore the use of chocolate in cuisine as a savory ingredient? We will definitely be coming back for the Fri tour (vs Sat), the new cuisiine tour, and the wine and chocolate tour. Thank you! Dana
