Excellent guide

5.00Excellent tour. Plenty of chocolate. And Olivia was such a fantastic guide. Her cute accent beautifully contributed to the authentic experience.
Great Chocolate Walking Tour

5.00In spite of the stifling heat (this was during the heat wave where it was 100F / 40C), this was still a great tour. Our guide, Anatole, was fantastic. He kept the heat in mind and got us in the shade whenever possible. He was also a great guide overall, balancing general history, history of chocolate, and other discussion topics throughout the tour and injecting a little personality as well. I would absolutely recommend this tour (hopefully in slightly better weather), in general, and Anatole specifically as a guide
Chocolate and Geneva Tour with Isabelle

5.00Such an incredible experience! Isabelle was a wonderful guide and was super knowledgeable about both chocolate and Genevan history. She was fun, open, and very thoughtful on staying hydrated and shaded on the 98 degree day! The chocolate was absolutely delicious. Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone. It spoiled me into thinking I’m not sure I can do another scenic tour without a delicious food element now!
Do not miss this trip!

5.00There is so much chocolate to eat on this tour! The first part is hokey but informative. Learning where to cocoa comes from and the milk was interesting. Watching the production was good and seeing them paint the chocolate cows was fun. Again, you get to taste so much chocolate!
Great Tour

5.00Olivia did a great job showing us around the city! We had a lovely day trying a dozen different chocolate goods across 5 chocolatiers. Plus, we learned great history. There were no added fees. Our tour was about a dozen people.

5.00This tour was everything I had hoped it would be and more. Even in the middle of an incredible heatwave, our tour guide (Isabelle) was magnificent. Her care for the guests as well as her knowledge of the chocolatiers and the city of Geneva were truly impressive. This tour deserves the rave reviews it gets!
Anatole’s tour was awesome!
