Experience Details
Bristol’s rich history has a sweet side, with a long chocolate making heritage.

Join us for a historic ramble through the Old Town sampling delicious treats along the way. The perfect tour for those with a sweet tooth!
Your tour begins at the bottom of Christmas Steps – a street as pretty as its name. Your guide will describe how chocolate has shaped the city whilst you pass hidden rivers, world class street art and buildings which date back to the origins of the city.
You’ll then wander towards the old town, passing 300 year old sugar houses, medieval streets whilst stopping to nibble chocolatey delights along the way.
Your chocolate tour then finishes amongst the magical independent traders of St. Nicholas Market, where you can then spend the rest of the day exploring the market stalls in your own time.
