Great experience! - Wonderful visit to discover the chocolate factory during our stay in Tuscany. Claire, our guide, was exceptional in her welcome and detailed explanations of the entire chocolate-making process, from the cocoa bean to the bar. The chocolates are varied and absolutely delicious, you can truly appreciate the quality. We had the opportunity to observe all the stages of production. The whole team can be proud of the work they have accomplished; it is truly an art!

Stanley Tucci, you need to visit this bean-to-bar chocolate maker - This is a very special place, and it should be on your can't-miss itinerary for Tuscany’s “Chocolate Valley." We were a group of three generations, from grandparents to young teen grandchildren, and everyone had a great time, learned a lot, and discovered our new favorite chocolate! This place is the real deal, authentically artisanal, with a passion for integrity and excellence. The owners and staff are extremely welcoming and gracious.

Great, private, personalized tour of an excellent small chocolate company - Jean Lucca provided an informative and very interesting description of the process of turning cacao to chocolate and included tasting of the product at different steps along the way. Tuscani's founder and chocolatier also provided interesting background and details and they answered our many questions. This is a small, focused, detail oriented company that makes exceptional chocolate. At the end they generously allowed us to taste all of their many products and we purchased a lot to take home!

Delicious and interesting. - Gianluca was a wonderful guide. His English was very good. He explained the whole process very well. We even met the owner and spent time with him. It’s amazing what goes into the process to create artisan chocolate. I will be ordering more from home.

Well worth the trip - leave room in your suitcase! - Tuscani Cioccolato is a gem of a find! The entire process of crafting artisanal chocolate was well explained and demonstrated. In addition to our guide, the owner of Tuscani also presented and spoke with us. Tuscani chocolate products include a variety of bars of varying intensity as well as chocolate covered almonds, hazelnuts, local raisins and more. All products are available for tasting. The flavors are superb, smooth and clean. Minimal ingredients, genuine care and integrity of and for their product as well as for Tuscany. Would visit again.

The tour that wasn’t - We drove for over an hour only to find the doors locked. I called their number and the owner informed me that they had notified viator that they would be out of town this week to attend a meeting three weeks ago. As the tour operators viator did a terrible job of posting the closing and cost us valuable time of our vacation. We are awaiting our refund for the tour we didn’t get.
