2.5 hours | food & drink tastings | Antwerp
Let's walk and talk as we try one of the healthiest foods in the world : Yes! Chocolate! And guess what? We are gonna do that on its own cradle, the cradle of the "lekkerste" chocolate in the world: Belgium.
Meanwhile, we're going to meet some of the nicest spots of this charming city. Come on!
"Luis was very prepared. We got to try a lot of local chocolate and got a real feel for Antwerp. I would recommend aswas very helpful and answered all our questions and we had a great time."
"Luis was a very good guide, the tour combined information about chocolate history with some historical background on the city- the combination was great and our group was very happy about having chosen this tour!"
"Luis gave us one of our favorite travel experiences. He explained the history of chocolate, took us to the best places to try it and provided an amazing overview of the history of Antwerp! Such a unique and awesome way to see the city! Luis is an amazing guy!"
"Luis took my sister and I around Antwerp to four or five different shops where we had hot chocolate and also sampled different chocolates. This was helpful as we later came back to our favorite shops to purchase gifts. In addition to learning about the chocolate, we learned about various landmarks and fun facts about Antwerp (ex. fashion and how Antwerp got its name) while walking around. We enjoyed ourselves!"
"I can't say enough great things about Luis! I did the Chocolate tour with him, and I got far, far more than I expected! Not only did I get to try some of the amazing chocolates of the city, I learned so much about how chocolate is produced, where it comes from, and what sets different types of chocolate apart from each other. And if that wasn't enough, as we walked around the city, he pointed out local historical spots and gave me some of the history of those as well. If you only have one day to see Antwerp, Luis is the person you should absolutely have show you around!"
"We spent three hours with Luis and gained a fascinating insight into chocolate - its history, the best places to buy chocolate in Antwerp and the huge variety of flavours available. There were several tasting stops along the way, including one where we tried many different flavours including bacon and cannabis! The tour ended with a chocolate flavoured gin and chocolate snuff. This is a 'must do' for anyone who is a fan of chocolate. "
"My tour with Luis was awesome. He had great knowledge of both Antwerp in general and the chocolate places in the city. He was also personable and friendly. All of the shops seemed happy to see Luis when we entered, which in turn made me feel welcome too. Thanks for a great time!"
"Luis is an excellent host. He knows everything about chocolate, but also about Antwerp. Every question we asked him, he answered with joy & knowledge. Tasted many kinds of special & good chocolates. You just have to do this tour. It's something different than the standard tours. Enjoy!"
"Loved the tour, all the delicious chocolate and the great guidance of Luis. I've been to Antwerp a lot, but never experienced it in such a unique way! Highly recommended"
