Incredible

The tour was absolutely perfect, well worth the money. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable without being a chocolate snob. The different shops visited on the trip had the perfect amount of variety. It was a wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

Fantastic Christmas Treat to Ourselves
Fri, Dec 21, 07   12:00 PM EHardwick Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
We decided to do this as part of our Christmas Trip to NYC. What a fantastic tour. We felt like New Yorkers going to places they would only know about. I especially like Marie Belle Chocolates where you had to ring a bell to go upstairs, and the shop was decorated with French Provincial furniture. It was a delightful surprise. All the chocolate we tasted was delicous.

I'm Doing This Again (and Again)
Thu, Dec 20, 07   12:30 PM gennyevans Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Unspecified
As a long time tourist and one who often goes on tours in cities this one takes the cake and it is chocolate. I would caution you to eat some protein before this tour as the chocolate high starts early on this tour. By the second stop I was buzzing. All my friends want to go with me to NYC next time. Why? We can't resist the concept of a chocolate tour with a very knowledgable guide and goodies too delicious to describe. My only regret-I didn't buy a thing. I was way too busy enjoying myself. I will be back and I will be doing this again. Do I reommend this-Absolutely positively YES!!!!!

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 until the last stop...

My friend and I had did this for our friend's birthday gifts and she loved it. Bert was great - informative and entertaining, and his enthusiasm spread to all the members of the group. Our only problem was with the last place we went, Debauve & Gallais. It seemed like the clerk working at the time was annoyed w/our presence in the store and he came off as kind of rude. And when other customers came in, he ran over to them to apologize for us being in the store, like we were ruining the place. It seems to me that if Debauve & Gallais is that unhappy w/tour customers being in their shop, they should take themselves off the itinerary. This unpleasantness didn't ruin our experience overall though - we would definitely recommend this tour to others who love chocolate as much as we do... Thanks again, Bert!!

Couldn't have been better

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.

My adult daughter, a resident of NYC and I found this very enjoyable and informative. We are now aware of new locations to visit. We enjoyed the guide.

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.

So happy we were able to take this tour
Thu, Dec 6, 07   12:30 PM Buddymom Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
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.

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.

Enjoyable and Informative
Fri, Nov 30, 07   3:30 PM gaydall Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
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.

Life changing
Fri, Nov 30, 07   12:00 PM courtneyde Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
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

Delightfully decadent!
Fri, Nov 30, 07   12:00 PM snowskier83 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
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!
