The tour was small, so it was very intimate. Our guide was great! Very personable and knowledgeable! He gave us inside tips about chocolate as well as informational and fun tidbits about Manhattan. I highly recommend it and will sign up for another one soon!

I had purchased tickets as a gift for my wife's birthday, & we planned to go on the tour on Friday, November 2nd. Unfortunately, we had a family emergency & had to cancel. We thought we were just going to lose the tickets, but when my wife called to explain that we had to cancel, she was told that we could reschedule. We were very happy to be able to reschedule for Friday November 9th. We had a wonderful time. It turned out that we were the only two on the tour. Bert, our tour guide, was great - he made the tour both interesting, & fun. He was very knowledgable & informative. He has a wonderful personality & is perfectly suited for his position. He even made walking around New York City on a cold & rainy Friday afternoon a great experience. The chocolate shops that we visited were all very nice, & the chocolates were a chocoholic's dream. We would like to take another tour in the future - posibly the chocolate & wine tour. Thank you. Kevin Kittrick

This tour is definitely a chocolate lovers dream! I appreciated the wide range of chocolates and the stories behind many of the chocolatiers. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend to all...both local and tourists!

We enjoyed the New Cuisine tour as much or more than the European Tour a month earlier!! Burt was knowledgable and entertaining, and he made sure we all moved at a pace that worked for our group. Just like its neighborhood (SoHo), the New Cuisine tour was full of fun, unique, and full of delicious examples of what chocolate should taste like. We loved the close proximity of the stops and the enthusiasm of the chocolatiers we visited. Way to go Zoom! I can't wait to try your wine&chocolate tour!!

Great fun and lots of chocolate
Sat, Oct 27, 07   3:30 PM KathyHoward Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Burt (the tour guide) was casual, informative and fun. The walk took us through Soho at a leisurely pace to 5 very different shops. Quite a variety of chocolates and shop styles. Try the white chocolates (esp pistachio) at Kim Lee's shop, they were the best samples on the tour (even if you don't normally like white chocolate-trust me). A great way to spend the afternoon, and just as good as the Uptown tour according to Burt.

Our guide, Burt, was great. Very informative, fun, good sense of humor, and did a great job with keeping us on time and still allowing everyone a chance to wander around and shop. I highly recommend this tour.

It was one of the highlights of our trip
Fri, Oct 26, 07   12:00 PM Garyjones Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
I attended the Chocolate tour with my 24 year old daughter. We made reservations on line so really was not sure how it was going to turn out. I must say not only were we surprised but it was one of the major highlights of our trip to New York. This was the first time (other than 2 hours 7 years ago) we had an extended trip in New York. Our guide not only told us alot about Chocolate that we never knew he also gave us an asume tour of New York as we went place to place. We still talk about it and I tell all my friends that this is a must do tour when they go to New York. I want to thank you all so very much, it was great. Gary D. Jones

Great tastes! Great guide!

Burt met us on time and we hit it off from the beginning. His suggestions were great and his knowledge of chocolate, New York and the culinary scene was enjoyed and appreciated. We have recommended the tour to all our friends and hope to take other tours the next time we visit the city.

A chocoholics Heaven
Sun, Oct 14, 07   12:00 PM AmyM2006 Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
What a lovely tour this was! We got to explore parts of New York not often on the visitor's plan, mainly the part between Little Italy and Soho, and learn some of the history and technique of chocolate making, all the while sampling some of finest (if not the finest) chocolates of New York. We loved the fact that all 5 of the shops were so different from each other, and in the smaller shops got to meet the owners as well. There were so many options of flavors to choose from. I would recommend bringing a small refrigerated bag with you if you go in hot weather, as you may want to bring some fo teh samples home for later tasting, and you certainly may wish to buy from the shops as you go...but either way, bring your appetite for chocolate as there will be more than enough of that for the day! By the way, our guide was bert, and he was absolutely delightful.

Amazing

Is very worth while participating in this tour. Bert was the tour guide and was very outgoing, pleasant and interacted with each person on the tour. Very glad that we added this to our list of events during our time in NYC. While we were on the tour...people on the street who overheard the commentary were asking how they could sign up & participate. Definately worth your time.

Burt is an exceptional, enthusiastic, funny and extremely knowledgeable tour guide. He is intent on making the tour fun for everyone. He greets everyone warmly and treats people with the utmost respect. He has a great rapport with all the chocolate vendors who greet everyone on the tour enthusiastically and provide the best service, no matter how busy the shop is. I highly recommend the tour. It was definitely a five star experience.

We enjoyed visiting the specialty chocolate shops (we probably would not have gone to otherwise). Burt, our guide, was knowledgeable, friendly and very accommodating.. Although Burt made suggestions at each shop, the choice of 2 selections was our own. That was my favorite part of the tour - each person was able to choose their own favorite flavors instead of being forced to sample another person's choices.
