A tasty way to learn about the history of chocolate and Harvard Square

Andora_S, Mar 2026

Talk about chocolate coma! I booked this tour for my daughter on our last day together before I headed home and it was the perfect ending to a wonderful trip! Chloe, our tour guide, was kind, friendly and knowledgeable! We loved her! We learned a few new things about the history of chocolate. Each stop had a well curated sample to try. We also got a great history of the stories and sites of Harvard Square. This tour was so fun and tasty!

Response from Host, Mar 2026

Must do for any chocolate lover!

A great experience to...

A great experience to learn about the origins of chocolate and how that relates to the history of Cambridge. Unique spots that focus on local shops, and who doesn’t want to support the local shops. Reasonably priced fir all that you get.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thanks for your awesome review! We loved meeting you on our tours and appreciate your supporting our tiny business. We do what we do for the small independent local shops as you mentioned!

Delicious Evening

Elizabeth_G, Oct 2022

The chocolate tasting was great, however, I wish more attention was paid to my daughters food allergies.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thank you for joining us. Please email us at hello@offthebeatenpathfoodtours.com as we pride ourselves on trying to accommodate allergies but ultimately it's up to you to communicate your specific needs with the restaurants themselves. All allergy information must be sent over in advance of the tour as everything is pre-ordered, and I don't have a record of you sending us any allergy requirements. Thanks again for joining us and supporting our small business!
