Chocolate Heaven

Stanley took me on a excellent tour through the area in Zurich where some of the best chocolate is made in house. Stanley was an excellent guide and the chocolate was out of this world. He is also very knowledgeable of the history of the area. I would highly recommend this tour.

Unique chocolate + great guide = lovely afternoon in Zurich!

We had so much fun on this experience! We got to try so many unique chocolates with flavors I never thought possible from tiny local artisanal spots to hundred year old shops. Each one had something unique about it. And our guide was wonderful, he also showed us really cool spots with the Old Town views between tastings, that was a great bonus. We're so glad we picked this tour, highly recommend!

Hands down the best tour...

Hands down the best tour on our trip. Stanley provides so much more than a chocolate tour. It’s like visiting an old friend in a city you are vacationing in. He provides historical facts for Zürich and is a wealth of knowledge. You won’t regret your time with Stanley!

Best part of our trip!

What a lovely afternoon! Our guide took us through the charming Old Town cobblestone streets and we stopped at a few boutique chocolate shops we'd never find on our own. The experience felt relaxed and easy the whole way. And what unique flavors and stories! Great chocolate, beautiful old buildings, and good conversation along the way. If you want a sweet, laid-back afternoon and a chance to see Zurich like a local, I'd really recommend this
