| This tour was interesting - not only for locating fine chocolate shops that I would not have found on my own, but for the knowledgable guide. Bert was very friendly, interesting and informative. I was unaware of the number of different things one should know about fine chocolates. I would suggest making sure to eat something or have a starch filled snack with you since the infusion of chocolate sort of makes you "high". I enjoyed this tour and am planning to do another walking tour with Bert when we return to NY in the fall. | ||||||

| I took my husband on this tour for Father's Day--he is a hopeless chocoholic--and we had a great time. We were lucky to have a very small group on our tour, although I'm sure it would be fun even with a larger crowd. Bert, our guide, was knowledgeable, personable, and funny and led us on a pilgrimage to five outstanding, upscale chocolate shops, explaining the basics and nuances of chocolate history and the art of it's production. I would recommend this tour to locals and visitors alike--my husband has been raving about it to our friends and family. A very successful Father's Day gift! | ||||||

| We have a whole new perspective on chocolate now. Bert (Burt?) was the guide for myself and my 16-year old daughter. He was knowledgeable, great personality, lots of fun. Interestingly enough, upon our return to California, the very next day, the LA Times had an article on chocolate shops in France - three of them we had visited on the NY tour. Be sure and keep Bert working for you, he's a credit to your company. Thanks | ||||||

| We enjoyed this tour. Plenty of sweet treats for our tastes. I feel the price could be a little on the high side, would have preferred to tip the guide more rather than paid as much for the tickets. Would definitely consider the uptown tour for the future. | ||||||

| The gentleman we had guiding us was fan-dan-tastic! I can't say enough good things about him. It was a miserable, rainy day, but we couldn't have had a better time. He shared insights about the city of my birth that I had never known, and was incredibly knowlegeable about chocolate. It was a delightful afternoon! Thanks! | ||||||

| I'd recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in exotic chocolates, marketing strategies, and packaging ideas. The short walks between shops gave time to digest both our treats and the info disseminated from our guide. Bruce was both informative and an enthusiastic fan of chocolate in its many and diverse forms. | ||||||

| Spring and chocolate in New York. It doesn't get better than this. Our host was as hospitable as he was knowledgable. We tasted a (very) generous amount of chocolate in a variety of venues, a number of which we would have never discovered on our own. I particularly enjoyed that fact that, if we wished, we could substitute a pastry for chocolate at some venues. Just don't plan on eating dinner any time soon after this tour. | ||||||

| For two chocoholics, we were in chocolate heaven. Curt our tour guide was waiting for us inside the first store. We lucked out and had a private tour, since the other group had cancelled. That was good news for us, but not for Curt. I'm sure our tip didn't help him much, hopefully he got some of the $70 from our tickets. The price was nearly twice that of the Foods of NY tour we took the next day. For the money, this one was not worth it. Although we really enjoyed it, it was pricey. We went to 5 high end chocolate shops. Curt knew everything about making chocolates and knew each shop owner. He gave personal recommendations, but we were able to select two chocolates from each shop. We also got hot chocolate in one shop and sipping chocolate in another, as well as a cupcake. We weren't able to eat it all and started wrapping it to go near the end. It was a great tour, but if you only have time for one - I recommend the Food of NY tours - either Greenwich Village or Chelsea Meatpacking District. | ||||||

| 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 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! | ||||||

| Obviously interesting as most people do not know a lot about chocolate. The guide was superb. Very well informed on the subject and charming. Hard to eat all the samples ( 30 $ worth of chocolate) in 2 hours. | ||||||

| I picked out this tour for my girlfriend because as a New Yorker, I knew she'd never done anything like this before, and since she loves chocolate, I thought she'd really enjoy it. Bert (our guide) was fabulous! He was friendly, knowledgeable and fun to hang out with for those two and a half hours. Our group was small, only 8 of us total, and it was the perfect size.We learned so much about chocolate we'll never be able to look at it the same again! I sincerely recommend this tour as something fun to do on a Saturday afternoon. It was everything I hoped it would be, and more! She absolutely loved it! Now we want to do the downtown tour!! | ||||||
