Amazing chocolate experience

My friend and I had an amazing experience at the Chocolatarium doing the tour of chocolate! Dixie was a great tour guide- super friendly, helpful, and really knowledgeable about chocolate making. It was lovely to be able to make our own chocolate and bring it home with us and there was a great selection of chocolate to try! We would definitely recommend and want to say thank you so much Dixie for the experience!

Amazing tour really enjoyable

This is such an amazing tour I would definitely recommend for anyone staying in Edinburgh. Not only do you get to taste loads of different chocolates but you also get to make your own signature chocolate. We had Dixie as our tour guide, she was so friendly which massively added to the experience. Really amazing tour and definitely worth checking out 👍

Great place! Wonderful chocolate!!

This was an amazing tour. Went through a bunch of info on how chocolate is made, how they are helping small farms, and you got to make your own chocolate bar! Lots of yummy tasting too! Our guide, Susan was lovely, informative and funny! We found out it was her first full tour so double points to her!! I would definitely recommend this tour! It takes 90 minutes so allow time!
