great time - lot's of fun

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

Chocolate Fun

My wife and I had a blast. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and chose some very good spots. After 10 pieces of chocolate (2 at each stop), a few additional samples, and two double shot sizes of hot chocolate, we were ready to go into a chocolate comma. If you love chocolate, you'll love this. If you're looking to learn, and not eat, don't waste your time, as the chocolate fun is all about eating chocolates. A bit pricey, but if you can handle spending the money, you're sure to have a good time.

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!!

It was one of the highlights of our trip

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 wonderful experience, well organized

They key to our appreciation of this event was tour guide Bert James, whose pleasant and informative manner helped heighten our enjoyment. One small quibble -- for the price, I think participants should get more than two pieces at each store -- 3 or 4 would seem more of an indulgence, and indulgences are what this tour's all about.

Really Enjoyable

We enjoyed each of the different shops and the varied chocolates. It was fun to see a different side of New York and get away from some of the more typical "tourist" spots.

we were very happy with our experience and will definitely try one of the other tours as a result of our positive thoughts on this one. the chocolates were amazing and the tour guide truly helped guide us in our chocolate making decisions. he also was intimately aware of the history associated with each shop. we had a fun time and learned alot during the day...

Full of tons of learning and fun

The Luxuury Tour was far more worthwhile and fun than I had expected! I took this tour since the other, seemingly more my style of tour, was full. Wrong!! Our tour guide, Burt, was an added bonus.... full of salient facts, bits of interesting history, and seriously interested in giving us a fun and educational time. The guy knows his chocolate! The route of the tour was fine for a walking tour, even though the day was hot and muggy. And the chocolatiers we visited were excellent examples of fine chocolate making, and were eager to help us buy their products and answer our silliest questions!! I'm a chocolate retailer, and I learned a ton from Burt. My only suggestion to Burt was to figure out a way for his customers to buy the chocolate and not have to carry it around during the tour on a hot and muggy day. Not an easy question to answer! I thought the price was a little steep until I realized I was eating more chocolate than should be legal for one day by one person!! And the education for someone seriously interested in learning about chocolate, was worth every penny. Now I can only hope the other tour is available on my next NYC visit!!
