Yumm - Wonderful tour. Gude was very freindly and informative. We learned a lot about how chocolate is made and then had great fun making our own chocolate bars. We also got to sample from about 30 different chocolates.

Fab experience for a chocolate fan! - Brilliant chocolate tour, really friendly staff and tour guide. Really informative and interesting. Lots of yummy samples, loads of fun making our own chocolates with a choice of toppings and moulds. Delicious to eat later on too once we'd recovered from the sugar coma 😅😅. Lovely little shop with a wide range of chocolates to buy onside. Well organised, would defo recommend!

A must for the chocolate lovers! - From start to finish, this experience was super fun and entertaining. Our group was so nice and funny, and we have our lovely guide Isabela to thank for that—she made everyone feel so welcome! It wasn’t just entertaining but also a really fun learning experience for chocolate lovers. Lemon and Poppyseed Chocolate Bar, I will never forget you! <3
