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.

bert combines history and fun facts with all the charm and consideration you would expect from a southern gentleman. our tour never stinted on time in a shop, we had all the time we wanted to spend at each stop . each stop was educational and fun and i will never look at milk chocolate in the same way. i can actually taste the nuances! would i do it again? you bet i would!

Fun and informative

First of all I loved Burt, our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and helpful. The chocolate stores were amazing. You would think when you walked in these stores, they would be very snooty, but it was just the opposite. They were extremely nice and helpful. ( you could tell they also enjoyed being around Burt). It was a nice walk, but you could take as long as you needed. I highly recommend this tour. I would go again.

Delicious, Easy and Fun!
Sat, Sep 22, 07   3:30 PM caggirl42 Female 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
My husband and I loved the tour. It was so easy, prompt, informative, tasty and just easy going. Bert, the guide, was very sweet and he was a professional. His personality was truly enjoyable, and he was fun to listen to. We are definitely signing up for another tour soon. This is a great activity to do at anytime. Who knew that these chocolate stores even existed? Kee's..oh my..so delicious. I never knew that place existed, Jackie at Divalicious was downright cool and her dark chocolate fountain was excellent, along with the chili chocolate truffle (amazing!). It was all fantastic! Go for it!

A very nice walk through quaint NY neighborhoods whilst getting an excellent taste of "mom-and-pop" shop chocolates.

Good way to spend 2 hours.

The other group canneled, so ours was a nice private tour. The guide Bert was nice and friendly and knowledgeable. I just wished that thew last shop would be Kee's so that I can get her chocolate the last as it needs refridgeration.

If you love chocolate, this tour is for you!
Sun, Sep 30, 07   12:00 PM MK2996 Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
I am a chocolate addict and was so excited to learn about the Chocolate tour! While planning a day in the city for my mom's birthday, I decided out first stop had to be the tour. The chocolate that we sampled was absolutley delicious. It's a great opportunity to be adventurous or stick with what you know you will like. I'm usually not adventurous when selecting chocolate, however Burt, our tour guide, selected a truffle sprinkled with curry for us to taste. Although I was skeptical, I thoroughly enjoyed the taste. The walking isn't extensive, but by the time you arrive at your next destination you are ready for the next bite. There were 4 women in our group and all were 100% satisfied!!! I highly recommend this tour for anyone who enjoys chocolate!!! And here's a tip - if you plan the tour on a Sunday, you can still make a 3pm matinee.

A wonderful experience, well organized
Fri, Oct 5, 07   12:00 PM smoothwinder Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
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.

Did not enjoy companions in group
Fri, Oct 5, 07   12:00 PM mcclenahan Female 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
This was not exactly what I had in mind. My fault ... the leader was excellent, enthusiastic, and can be recommended to anyone. My husband and I did not feel compatible with the group .... perhaps another day we would have enjoyed it more.

Great Chocolate Tour
Fri, Oct 5, 07   12:00 PM Lustgarten Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
Our tour guide was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and personable. The vendors we visited were hospitable and the chocolate was delicious. After tasting really good chocolate everything else pales by comparison. There was a lot of walking, especially to the last vendor, which I chose not to go to because I use a cane. The weather was unseasonably hot and humid making the walking more difficult for me. I have already recommended the tour to my friends and family.

Excellent way to spend an afternoon
Sat, Oct 6, 07   12:00 PM lisa46xx Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
My husband and I just took this tour as part of a 10th wedding anniversary weekend in NYC. It was so much fun. Burt, the tour guide, could not have been nicer or more accomodating, the chocolate shops were welcoming, and the chocolates were divine!! At one stop, the chocolates were chosen for us; we were able to choose our own pieces to taste at the other four. A very fun way to spend an afternoon, and a must do for any chocolate lover (and who isn't?).

Excellent - Fun - Informative

Our tour guide (Bert) was very informative regarding the different types of chocolate, where they were from and was happy to make suggestions. The choices for tasting sights was well rounded and gave a wide selection of different types of chocolate to try. My group enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it for anyone like us, who Loves Chocolate.

Great for Chocoholics
Sat, Oct 6, 07   3:30 PM aeallen78 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
This is such a fun way to spend an afternoon in Soho. We went to little known stores and trendy spots, too. Each chocolate recommendation was perfect and we ate so much that we had to take some samples home for later. We really appreciated learning how to truly taste chocolate! Our guide was entertaining and made everyone feel comfortable. What a great time!

Great Time!
Sat, Oct 6, 07   3:30 PM BarbDooley Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
My sister and I took the tour together. We found our guide, Bert, to be extremely knowledgeable about the chocolates and the places we visited. He was also very personable and enthusiastic. You could tell he loved what he was doing. The owners of the shops we stopped at were also very friendly. The chocolate samples (and we could make our own choices) were delicious. The next time we are in the City, we intend on taking one of their other tours.
