Ivan the (definitely not) Terrible
Our guide, Ivan, was wonderfully engaging and full of fun Melbourne facts, that even us locals weren't aware of. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and discovered some hidden Melbourne gems.

What an experience for Sweet Tooth’s!
So very happy to give this Chocoholic walking tour 5 stars. Our guide Lauren is a fellow chocoholic and was clear to me that guided chocolate tours aren’t just a “job” to her. She is knowledgeable about the history of Melbourne, knows her way around well and is passionate about passing on her knowledge. She naturally spent amounts of time with each person on the tour, while guiding our group of 6. We went to stores I never would have found otherwise - Clementines was probably my stand out (all locally sourced merchandise owned by Melanie). We went to 4 stores total winding our way from the start point and finishing in Guildford Lane. Highly highly recommend this tour!

Great Chocolate!
The tour was great. Fun walking through Melbourne’s lanes and arcades sampling chocolates. Brianna, our guide from Melbourne, did an excellent job guiding us.

Chocolate lovers delight
We had a wonderful time with Ivan our guide. As we were the only ones booked on the day it was a private tour. Learnt lots of things, ate lots of chocolate and did lots of walking. Do yourself a favour and do one of their tours. You won't be disappointed

Excellent tour
The tour was far more than just a chocolate tour: it included history, architecture, laneways, fun facts, and then lots of chocolate. At first I thought the samples were a bit on the small side but after a while I was pleased! We went to various purveyors and there were some terrific treats as well. Brianna was an excellent guide. Strong recommendation!

Thanks for the recommendation JoanneT1 -sounds like you had a great time with Brianna! chocolate regards, Carl and the chocolate team

Sweet Memories of Melbourne
Lauren was a fantastic tour guide; not only did she introduce us to some of Melbourne’s best chocolatiers, but she also provided interesting facts from one location to the next. We sampled several mouth-watering chocolate desserts and, in the process, viewed areas we wouldn’t have otherwise seen. What a wonderful and unique experience! Would highly recommend this tour!
