Enjoying delicious new tastes.

Julie_F, Mar 2026
We enjoyed tasting the chocolate and learning how cocoa beans are made into chocolate. Fabio was very knowledgeable about the chocolate-making process and history and made the experience fun.

Very tasty and tasty n formative tour. However it felt rushed felt like there was no time for questions

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback on The Turin Chocolate Tasting Experience. We're glad you found the tour tasty and informative. We apologize if it felt rushed; this was due to a delay caused by some members of the group (they arrived 15 minutes later) and the fact that we had another tour scheduled immediately afterward. We always aim to provide a relaxed and engaging experience and we appreciate your understanding. We hope to welcome you back to Turin for another sweet adventure in the future!

I loved that Fabio...

Deborah_F, Oct 2025
I loved that Fabio considers this an experience rather than a tour. Indeed his own knowledge of chocolate and the nuances of different chocolates made it so. Gracie Fabio!

Good tour, nice tour guide, interesting information and amazing chocolate

Kim_S, Sep 2024
I liked this tour because it was relatively short and not just about eating chocolate. We appreciated starting with a coffee (with chocolate), then a bit of sightseeing and history before visiting a specialty chocolate shop. The owner is a passionate chocolate connoisseur and we learnt about the intricacies of what makes good chocolate and taste tested various varieties. The talk was lively, but the information was repetitive and or lost in translation. The information was also directed to one person in our group with the rest of us kind of feeling left out. Our guide also asked for a tip, which was a bit cheeky because I felt we paid an adequate amount for the tour (Australians generally don’t tip unless the service is particularly good). Otherwise the tour guide was nice and the tour entertaining and enjoyable.

Response from Host, Sep 2024
