This is a wonderful experience. Emin, our guide was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and full of energy. On this tour, you get to experience the best part of Belgium - chocolate. Emin was also a wealth of knowledge telling us about history, great places for frites, waffles, beer, and food in general. And you get to make your own chocolate treats! Amazing expertise and highly recommend.

This was a complete city...

Zelle_P, Aug 2026
This was a complete city tour with history about the ethnicities of the city and the various types of chocolate. The tour guide was great. Highly recommend this tour. Could not be more happy with the tour.

Super fun experience

Don’t Waste Your Time or Money!

Barbara_H, Jun 2026
This was a strange tour from the very beginning. Our tour guide did you have a Viator ID nor did he provide his name until I specifically asked him. We did receive a few historical tidbits but mainly directed us to bar and restaurants. We did sample wonderful chocolates at 3 shops. The chocolate making portion was the guide given us melted chocolate and having us put toppings on it. Very strange. A better option would have been visiting a chocolate shop and watching a chocolatier demonstrate.

Chocolate + more chocolate

My guide ,who I am very sorry, cannot think of his name! Sorry , he was wonderful,Turkish and has been in Brussels for ten years, was very knowledgeable about chocolate and about sights of Brussels.His English was fantastic!

Great tour

Paula_P, May 2026
Arvo was a great guide. My daughter and I took this tour with him and we learnt not only about the history of chocolate, but also the history of Brussels. The chocolate making was great fun. We learnt a lot about the beans and where they are sourced from. The chocolate tasting was amazing. Arvo really knows his chocolate, so picked the best ones to taste. If you are looking for something to do for a few hours while in Brussels, I highly recommend this tour

Our tour guide was so...

Tonya_C, May 2026

Anthony_P, Apr 2026
Avo was an incredible guide. We had numerous pieces of chocolate each more interesting than the last. I feel like I've never known more about chocolate than at this moment! I can't recommend this tour enough.

Chocolate Lovers Delight

Mitzi_T, Mar 2026
Informative and interesting. Our guide was very passionate about Brussels history, chocolate, and Belgium beer. It was , overall, a fun day.

While a fun tour in...

Ashleigh_S, Mar 2026
While a fun tour in concept, the execution was a bit lacking. The route felt a bit haphazard, and the chocolate was tasty, but maybe not worth the cost of the tour. Learned a little, & got my steps in, but left feeling a bit meh.

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Hellp Ashleigh, with 10 chocolate tastings and 1 hour workshop.you learned a little?

What made this experience...

penmac, Dec 2025
What made this experience exceptional was the outstanding charm and knowledge of Avo our guide. Despite the chill of the weather, his warmth, willingness to answer questions, expansive knowledge and excellent itinerary were wonderful. The various chocolatiers we visited were fascinating and very different from each other, and of course the chocolates we were lucky enough to sample were utterly delicious. We learned and enjoyed so much. Thank you.

perfect experience

Florine_L, Dec 2025
very kind host, Emin! We went to several chocolade shops and tried a lot of different chocolade flavours. Subliem!

Informative, fun tour

sue_s, Dec 2025
Informative, fun tour with Emil. We appreciated the information about Brussels and enjoyed our chocolate tastings at multiple vendors. We also enjoyed our creation of chocolate candies!

Excellent Tour

Debbie_W, Nov 2025
The tour was interesting and fun. Our guide was very friendly and professional. It was a small group which made it nicer.

Get to know Brussels and Belgian chocolate

Cheljea_J, Nov 2025
Emen was a phenomenal tour guide giving us the lowdown on Belgian chocolate and giving good tips for our further exploration around Belgium. He gave us some great restaurant recommendations and answered all of our questions regarding Brussels. He was really good with the kids in our group and were able to keep them safe and engaged. The chocolate making workshop was a lovely chance to sit inside and make some cute creations so it didn’t feel like too much walking yet you still got such a good lay of the land. There was some confusion about where to meet for the tour. Some updated instructions/clarification would be nice. Meet inside Grand Place 23 (Mary’s chocolataire). Marc was super accommodating with our flight schedules making sure we could reschedule as needed.

Great tour

Kevin_M, Nov 2025
Emin was great. Very nice, informative. Well worth the price for the amount of chocolate we sampled and places you get to visit.

The chocolate tour with...

Kayman_B, Nov 2025
The chocolate tour with Avo was absolute the best experience, he’s very knowledgeable about chocolate. By the the end of the tour we were chocolate out, which he explained we would be at the very beginning of the tour. I highly recommend Avo if you want a chocolate tour around Brussels where he bring you to authentic chocolate places and get to taste test different chocolates and make chocolate!

Not to be missed!

Judy_J, Nov 2025
Emin was very informative and engaging. The shops we visited all provided us with delicious chocolates to sample. Making our own chocolate was a lot of fun. We loved our time with him.

We had a delightful time....

Julie_C, Nov 2025
We had a delightful time. Emin shared such interesting information about Brussels, and we saw far more of the city than we realized would be covered. Making our own chocolates was fun and informative. I will never look at chocolate the same way again!

Deep dive into chocolate...

Richard_A, Oct 2025
Deep dive into chocolate knowledge and history! Delicious chocolate tastings, knowledgeable host, and shopping discounts

Sairah_A, Oct 2025
Emen was our guide for the walking tour workshop. He was excellent and incredibly knowledgeable not only of the history of chocolate but of Brussels itself and took the time to show us some hidden gems within the city. The chocolates we tried were varied and all delicious.
