Tour del cioccolato di Bristol
Descrizione
La ricca storia di Bristol ha un lato dolce, con una lunga tradizione nella produzione di cioccolato. Dalle prime importazioni georgiane di zucchero e cacao, fino alla produzione da parte di Fry della prima tavoletta di cioccolato, la storia di Bristol si intreccia con la roba dolce. Unisciti a noi per una passeggiata storica attraverso la Città Vecchia assaggiando deliziose prelibatezze lungo la strada. Il tour perfetto per chi è goloso di dolci! Il tuo tour inizia in fondo a Christmas Steps – una strada bella come il suo nome. La tua Guida descriverà come il cioccolato ha modellato la città mentre passi attraverso fiumi nascosti, arte di strada di livello mondiale ed edifici che risalgono alle origini della città. Camminerai poi verso la città vecchia, passando per case da zucchero vecchie di 300 anni, strade medievali mentre ti fermi a sgranocchiare delizie al cioccolato lungo la strada. Il tuo tour del cioccolato termina poi tra i magici commercianti indipendenti del Mercato di San Nicola, dove potrai poi trascorrere il resto della giornata esplorando le bancarelle del mercato nel tuo tempo libero.

Greatly informative and entertaining walking tour. The guide shares relevant information about how Bristol and chocolate intertwine. And of course you get to sample chocolate and its ingredients.
Great tour around Bristol, with fascinating info of the history of choclate making. Old locations and details of employers who made the sweet treats. Goodie bags to help you get a feel of producing choclate from times past. Reasonable priced and great guide.
Absolutely lovely way to learn the history of Bristol. Duncan was lovely and really engaging. My kiddos aged 13 and 15 were kept entertained with the hands on tastings and perfectly timed out stops. They also an Air Raid tour that we added on for the afternoon after loving the chocolate tour in the morning. Definitely book this!
Thanks Duncan! What a fun walk to see the history of Bristol. Visited parts of the city I was unaware of with sweet treats along the way. Would recommend to a friend!

What a great tour with Duncan our guide who kept us informed about Bristol’s Chocolate history but made it fun too. We took our granddaughters and they both enjoyed it, especially sampling the treats on the walk!
This was a great tour. Interesting history of chocolate and Bristol's place in it. Fun things to taste on the way. Duncan is an excellent tour guide. Definitely recommend.
Bristol’s sweet history came to life on the Bristol Chocolate Tour, a fascinating wander through the city’s Old Town uncovering the stories behind its long connection to chocolate making. From Bristol’s dark history in the triangular trade and wealth and exploitation that built the city to Fry’s creating the world’s first chocolate bar, the tour revealed just how deeply chocolate is woven into Bristol’s past. Led by the fabulous Duncan, whose passion for Bristol’s hidden history was infectious, we explored medieval streets, old sugar houses, hidden rivers and beautiful historic buildings while sampling plenty of delicious treats along the way. As well as trying raw sugar cane and cacao nibs, we tasted medieval sweet treats, discovered an independent chocolate shop tucked away in the heart of the city, and visited Ruby Hue, a brilliant bean-to-bar chocolate maker. The mix of history, storytelling and chocolate tasting made this such a fun and unique way to explore Bristol. Finishing amongst the bustling independent traders of St Nicholas Market was the perfect ending to the tour. A brilliant experience for anyone with a sweet tooth or an interest in Bristol’s hidden history — highly recommended.
