Delicious fun

Our tour guide had lots of interesting information about new york and the process of making chocolate. It was a fun way to spend an afternoon. But a little pricey.

Great Time

I got tickets to this as both a valentine's day gift for my chocoholic husband as well as a birthday gift for my sister-in-law. We all went together and had a great time. Discovered some wonderful new places and just really enjoyed spending the day out together in this manner. Aside from the fact that all the chocolate along the way was absolutely divine, the tour itself is a very original and fun way to spend an afternoon in mid-town.

Fantastic!

The tour was so much fun! I wasn't sure what it was going to be like as a single person joining the group, but I had a great time. Our tour guide Bert was awesome, not only knowledgeable but super friendly. I felt no pressure to buy from the stores we visited and I didn't feel rushed going through the tour either. The actual places we visited were very nice and welcoming, and Bert was very helpful in helping us choose which chocolates to taste and just answering our questions. I'll definitely look into checking out the other tours!

A walking tour visiting 5 chocolate establishments, each very unique and different. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable in the chocolate industry as well as the history of New York CIty.

Different from normal activity
Sun, Jan 13, 08   12:30 PM wfleming Male 40-49 Local Family Without Children
Had a lot of fun, probably because, in order, (1) it was an activity of a type we would not normally be exposed to, and (2) it was interesting and informative with respect to its subject matter. As a resident, it would not normally occur to me to take a tour of anything. But there is a distinct and favorable difference between being taken on a tour and exploring something yourself.

This was a great Christmas gift from my husband.

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!

FABULOUS Fun
Thu, Jan 10, 08   12:30 PM PCrown Female 60-69 Local Group of Friends
The New Cuisine Chocolate Tour is about as much fun as one can legally have - and this from someone who doesn't particularly like chocolate! (I chose it as a birthday gift for a chocoholic friend.) The tour guide was terrific - charming, as full of information as enthusiasm, and a wonderfully pleasant companion and guide. The places we visited provided a variety of styles, architecture, and amibance as well as fabulous tastes, and the walk from LES to Soho was delightful. Basically two perfect hours.

Interesting but expensive

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.

The two hour tour was a delight. I had heard of the various chocolate shops in New York but had never experienced them. Our guide, Burt, was enthusiastic and well informed. He had done his homework and was quite knowledgeable about chocolate. The samplings in the five shops were extraordinary--tasting everything from coconut to chipolte, traditional as well as more unusual flavors. This was a birthday present to my husband and we all enjoyed it. Creative and unique!

Absolutely Fabulous!!
Sat, Dec 29, 07   12:00 PM BigJulie Male 50-59 Local Couple on a Date
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!!

Fabulous Time
Sat, Dec 15, 07   3:30 PM joe1015 Male 20-29 Local Couple on a Date
It was an excellent experience. Our tour guide Bert/Burt, was amazing! I had signed up for the tour with my girlfriend for her Birthday, and before the tour began I wrote a couple of notes regarding food allergies and our reason for the tour. Come the tour date, the first thing our guide did after greeting us was wish my girlfriend a warm happy birthday, which I thought was quality. He clearly knew everything there is to know about chocolate, and made the tour exciting, informative, and fun. These chocolate stores are delicious as well! Definitely unforgettable and to be revisited. Divalicious, Marie Belle, Vosges, Kee, and Jacques Torres are all unique in flavor as well as their personalities. It was a great time, and a very enjoyable 2 hr tour.
