Great time! The Union Square Chocolate, Wine & Culture Tour

I loved the tour, we got to taste a lot more chocolate than I anticipated, all you can eat at the first one. It was a good distance and the tour guide, Bert, was absolutely fantastic. He was knowledgeable and very friendly. The only drawbacks were there wasn't enough tasting samples at the chocolate studio and one of the pastry shops...one piece seemed like kind of a rip off. Also, we didn't drink much wine, only two glasses...so maybe I'd do just the regular chocolate tours. All in all though, I loved it and my mother throughly enjoyed it. It was Mother's Day gift for her. However, when I told her the price she seemed to think it wasn't worth the money...so I don't know. I loved it though, so two enthusiastic thumbs up.

I found this tour interesting and informative and maybe somewhat overpriced. Never the less, we all did have a good time.
Sweet delight The NYC New Cuisine Chocolate Tour
Sat, May 10, 08 4:00 PM	JoyceDubin	Female	50-59	Local	Group of Friends
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.

Tour guide made the day! The Union Square Chocolate, Wine & Culture Tour

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!
Fun, Informative, and Simply Delicious! The NYC New Cuisine Chocolate Tour

What a great tour! I highly recommend this activity to any chocolate lover. Our tour guide was extrememly informative about the chocolate-making process, and the shops were welcoming, friendly, and beautiful! The samples were unbelievably delicious and the tour guide was very descriptive about the various tastes and how the chocolatiers achieved the specific chocolate. A very fun, well-spent 2 hours in Manhattan's SoHo!
Great afternoon tour!! The NYC New Cuisine Chocolate Tour

I purchased the tour as a birthday gift for my chocolate loving husband. He's a big fan of the Hershey's kind of chocolate, so I wasn't sure if he was going to like this tour, because it is a higher end kind of chocolate. Well, I shouldn't have worried. He absolutely loved the tour! Our tour guide was Bert, and he really knew his dark chocolate from his milk chocolate. Our group was 3 groups. We were on time, and the other two were a bit tardy. Bert was great calling them to give them updates, so that they could join the tour when we had moved to the next store. Luckily, they got there before we left. The descriptions of the chocolate were spot on, and Bert had very nice recommendations for us. We visited five shops, and had plenty of time for purchases after tasting. If you think you won't get enough chocolate, think again. We got to choose 2 pieces in each shop, and we also got a couple of chocolate drinks, besides. My husband at all of his on the spot, but I had half of mine wrapped to go. If you do that, be careful they don't get crushed in your bag. They are incredibly delicious, but very fragile! My husband is always ready to eat anything chocolate. However, by the end of the day, he said that for the first time in his life, he had eaten enough chocolate for the next two weeks!!! That was a successful tour in my eyes. This was to be a day of chocolate, so we went over to Max Brenner's for an early dinner. Needless to say, we weren't really very hungry. But, Max Brenner's was very disappointing. The food wasn't hot, the food just wasn't very tasty or well prepared, service stunk, and we were very disappointed with them. We should have gone somewhere else to eat, and much later in the day. We didn't have time to visit the M&M's store in Times Square, but it's on our list for next time. So, if you want to have the ultimate chocolate experience, take this tour. It was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
Decadent, Delicious, and Delightful! The Union Square Chocolate, Wine & Culture Tour
Fri, May 2, 08 3:30 PM	tfosdal	Female	Unspecified	Local	Group of Friends
Overall a well coordinated tour by our guide Burt - who was charming, informative, and very apologetic when Zerve gave us the incorrect location to meet. (Mistakes happen but more should have been done to correct the mistake - for example calling the cell phone numbers customers provided.) The tour provided a balance of excellent chocolate to taste, paired with a good wine, and interesting businesses to visit. I particularly liked the bit of neighbood history Bert provided while strolling some lovely East Side streets. All and all a lovely afternoon.
Mix-up with meeting spot. The Union Square Chocolate, Wine & Culture Tour
Fri, May 2, 08 3:30 PM	kimberleyn	Female	40-49	Local	Family Without Children
The tour was A LOT of walking! Unfortunately we had to do more walking than normal because we were given the incorrect meeting location so we had to walk several blocks to meet our tour guide before the tour even started. The tour guide was very nice and knowledgable. The third stop was my least favorite. I didn't think the chocolate chip cookie was very impressive and the hot chocolate was like thick pudding. We enjoyed all of the other stops.
great time The NYC Luxury Chocolate Tour

The tour guide was excellent, informative and very flexible. Did a great job catering to everyone's needs. Learned a lot and tasted some great chocolate. Would highly recommend the tour. Live in the city and now know where to go in the future for good chocolate.

My best friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Burt, who was knowledgable, patient, and friendly. The structure of the tour was perfect, with just enough chocolate, and well-timed walking and water breaks.
Yummy The NYC Luxury Chocolate Tour

This tour was a nice small group so you didn't get lost in the crowd. It went to some choc shops i never new existed and they let you try a sample at each store. Very friendly guide. An interesting take on a NY to do list.
Loved it!!! The NYC Luxury Chocolate Tour

I took my step mom as a gift. She is a real chocoholic. We LOVED the tour. Bert was great. Sometimes tour guides can be cheesy, but Bert was not at all. He was pleasant, informative, fun, and laid back. We had a GREAT time. The chocolate was great. A real fun way to see the city. We ended the day with dinner at Max Brenner. Yum!
