This tour is a must for chocolate lovers! But it was also a wonderful walking tour of the city with fun stories of the old part of town. Our guide, Lillian, was incredible… very personable and warm. She spoke clearly and it was very easy to hear and understand her.

MT was a fantastic tour guide! We walked all over the city of Geneva and went to 6 chocolate shops. At one point, we got chocolate pastries to-go and ate them on picnic tables in the old part of town, next to the church. It was wonderful. The weather varied quite a bit (cold, windy, sunny, hot, and then the last part rained!) so definitely check the weather and come prepared for all weather if you’re going in May. Our tour guide, MT, was very knowledgeable about the city, history, and culture. She was also very mindful of accommodating the people who had allergies on our tour. She was great. The walk we did covered a lot of the area and I had a great time and learned a lot! Highly recommend this tour!

Delicious and informative tour! Victoria was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of chocolate and Geneva. She was funny and made the history portion enjoyable. She was extremely attentive to the group in making sure we were having a good time. What can one say about eating Swiss chocolate - devine! Would highly recommend this tour as not only do you eat chocolate but you get a really great overview of the city.
