Here’s an overview of your activity
Our adventure includes a walk through the city center and a few stops by some of the best chocolate spots in Antwerp. On our way we'll discover the history and charms of this fascinating city.
We'll start our story at the Chocolate Bar, where you'll drink a delicious hot chocolate. In the meantime, we'll discuss aspects related to the history behind the "Nectar of the Gods" and you can also try to break cocoa beans by yourself, in the old style!
Then we hit the road to meet the city as we stop by another chocolate shop in order to tast the Hands of Antwerp which just to connect it with the legend we lear about the origins of the name of the city. After this tasting we continue our journey through the city center in order to see more of its charms. Then we stop at the next shop in order for you to taste this luxury dark chocolate. Here you will get it why eating chocolate is... unavoidable! We'll try an exercise to distinguish the flavors of these delicious goodies. If we are lucky, we may get to taste some of the new creations of the chocolatier when he is at shop.
Finally, we hit the road again for you to see some more of the city and end up at the Chocolate Line, where you can see a real laboratory and how the yummy products are made. You'll get to taste some exotic new praline varieties as well as doing a tasting exercise through your nose!!!
It'll be my pleasure to walk with you around the city, as we delight in chocolate tasting and discover its stories, past and present.
Our tour can start any time between 11 am and 4 pm.
