Delicious chocolates and a very interesting tour. - We loved this tour! Debbie was fun, interesting, knowledgable and a pleasure to listen to. We have been on many walking tours and this one was up there as one of the best (closely rivalling a tour of the brewery district in Toronto). Debbie was very inclusive and made us all feel involved by asking lots of questions as part of her spiel. We loved the variety of chocolates and sweets that we were given, and each shop we visited was carefully chosen. It was a nice touch to let us choose our favourite type of chocolate in one of the shops. If you’re looking for something to do that is slightly different to the usual sightseeing walking tour, then we suggest you give this a try. Highly recommended.

An educational & delicious Chocolate Tour - The Chocolate Tour was wonderful to do. Our pleasant Guide Nick took us in all languages to the most beautiful places in Ghent, where we each got a word of explanation about the history around it. He also introduced us to the best chocolatiers in Ghent, giving us a taste each time. An educational and wonderful afternoon. Also do I would say👌👌

Tasty and sunny afternoon in Gent - Chocolate Tour in Gent is a great choice and Nick is a wonderful guide! You don't get just interesting info about chocolate and local chocolatiers, but also about historical buildings that you pass along during the tour. He is very passionate and he has an answer for every question, so you can ask him anything about the city. He also provided us with tips about local restaurants and bars. It was a sunny day (lucky us), so everything was perfect! Thanks a lot, Nick, we had a wonderful afternoon ! :)

Just OK - I will say the chocolate at the last three shops were delicious! I definitely could have skipped the hard candy stop. This is a chocolate tour. We did sign up for an English speaking tour but unfortunately half the time the tour guide spoke Dutch. Don’t think it was worth the money.
