Tasty swiss bites in a cozy shop - The shop is full of a variety of local chocolates and cheeses. It was a nice experience to taste different flavors while the guide explained the history and cultural connections behind these products. I highly recommend visiting this warm and cozy shop.

Really delucious! - This was a presentation in a local shop by the shop owner. He was very knowledgeable about the making of chocolate from the cocoa bean to the final product. We learned so much about the sources of cocoa beans to the history of chocolate to the differences in the different types of chocolate. We tasted at least 8 different chocolates. Although he had chocolate bars for sale in his shop, there was no obligation or pressure to buy. Overall, a great experience! Who doesn't love chocolate!

Chocolate tasting - Jonas was a great guide of his shop. He gave us a complete history of chocolate , especially Swiss. He answered all our questions and encouraged everyone to sample the chocolate. He also explained the cheese he had on display. We had so much fun and learned a lot.

Very informative and interesting tasting experience - Very professional and knowledgeable guide, explaining the origins of the cocoa bean and the countries it comes from. You get to try seven small samples and he explains everything in great detail. There's no hard sell to buy any at the end. Very good value.

Nice chocolate tasting experience in small venue. - This is a very small and intimate shop so we had a great experience with the 8 of us. The host did a great job of explaining how chocolate is made and the tasting part was great also.

Total Rip Off - Total waste of money!!! squeezed 18 people into a tiny room with a broken up block of chocolate to taste - save yourself and just buy a block of chocolate from the supermarket….. Rude staff, total rip off

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE, RUDE, FRAUDULENT - DO NOT BOOK THIS TOUR!! Arrived at the venue ahead of time by about 20 min. Already had a group in there tasting so was waiting until they finished, store said closed so didn’t interrupt. Got to our booked time, time passed. Waited until ten minutes later and got the attention of the female member of staff. She told me we had wrong place. Showed her booking and she confirmed was right place but was not expecting us. She said she would check with colleague. Went away for five minutes, didn’t come back. We could still see her through glass. She came to the window after I called her over and wrote on her phone. ‘Sorry you shouldn’t be able to book. No tasting. Contact your tour operator’. Didn’t even want to speak to us. I opened the door and a male member of staff came over incredibly threatening. Said we had the wrong date or place. Again showed the booking which showed we were in right date time and place. He said it was tour operator fault and slammed door in my face. Appreciate the venue are blaming the tour operator but I still would not book this experience. Staff are rude and threatening. Still waiting for a refund and haven’t heard anything back. COMPLETE FRAUDS
