Great - Great tour. Guide has lots of things to share and answered all questions. Maybe I didn't see it listed but it ended up being a little longer than expected closer to 2 hours.

Don’t miss this tour! - My family and I did this tour- we have 4 children from youngest 7 to older teenagers and this tour was great for all ages, young and old (adults included!). Anna was our tour guide and she was amazing: so knowledgeable and explained things wonderfully. She mixed in history with technical information about how chocolate is made. We learned so much and tasted so many different kinds of chocolate… a wonderful tour and we all HIGHLY recommend it!!

Good tour - This was a nice tour - a good way to spend an afternoon in Brussels and our children (10 and 13) enjoyed it too. It was a reasonably small group - eight of us, and there wasn't any pressure to buy anything at the shops. I definitely feel I know more about Belgian chocolate afterwards! Getting the samples was something I'd have no idea how to do not on a tour and the guide proactively asked the children for the later tasting whether they wanted milk or darker chocolate etc.

Interesting tour with a brilliant guide - We went on the tour with our 2 teenage sons. There was 9 of us overall in the group. Nina, our guide was brilliant. She was very knowledgeable about the chocolate industry and had some great stories. Not only did we visit the chocolate shops but also stopped at some landmarks. Nina also provided some of her recommendations for places to eat. A great way to spend a couple of hours in Brussels.

Great chocolate appreciation tour - Our tour guide was very accomodating and exhibited good knowledge of how chocolate making arrived in Belgium and how it has evolved. She took us to a good selection of shops with great heritage and history with very appropriate sample tasting.

Fantastic Tour with a GREAT guide and host - Catherine (Kate) is an exceptional host for this chocolate tour. Her passion for living in Brussels and sharing her connection with chocolate and the sustainable farming of cocoa beans is infectious! She truly made all 4 of us wish to get involved in buying only Fair Trade chocolates and similar products for the good of mankind and the world. She brought us to many shops and did a great job with the progression of the flavors being enjoyed. She seems to have a very good working relationship with the stores' staff. The timing of the tour was perfectly paced and we got to enjoy some parts of the city we would never have explored if it were not for Kate. The only suggestion is that when you have a larger sized group (we were 14) then you need to use the microphone and headset system so that we can capture every word that Kate had to share with us.
