    We arrived 11:45 no guide. A guide did show up for people with best tour. We tried calling no person to talk to there were 12 of us stranded. The other guide took us with him. It was very unorganized and a chocolate tour should be all about chocolate not rice crispy treats. Not worth the money and would not use again.

    I would not use the company - the tour guide never showed up and no one answered the phone number given to us. Graciously another company Best Tours or something very similar allowed us to ride on its coattails. Very upsetting!

    Guide Jeffrey tried to cancel when we arrived. We went to 5 places not 7 - as a result, he waisted a lot more time walking us in circles well of the route than actually keeping to the shops. At one point, we went to girhadelli but it was closed, then tried h Hershey store but it was too crowded. Total waist of money and time - highly NOT recommended!!!

    Seth was a awesome tour guide. This tour took us to a few places that we never knew existed. Great info about Chicago and humor which made it more enjoyable. I would recommend this tour to everyone and make sure you have Seth as your guide. I live 2 hours south of Chicago and have been to this area multiple times, seriously of our 7 stops...5 I never new existed. And did I mention that Glazed and Infused that is on the trip is AMAZING. Thanks again Seth you made our Saturday afternoon FUN! We were stuffed after so its a good thing we were walking to burn off some of the calories we consumed!

    Seth was fantastic! He made the tour so fun and informative. We would definitely do another one if Seth was our guide!

    Good eats. Some vendors were not ready for us when we arrived which made for a lot of standing around waiting although our guide tried to call ahead. Each location was local so don't think you are going to Hershey's of Giardelli's. You will be pleasantly surprised by the treats from donuts, to gelato to cupcakes to candies and truffles. The walk is not long and very accessible for everyone. Would recommend this tour.

    This trip wa great, our tour guide Seth was really helpful and gave us loads of information about the city which made our stay in Chicago that much more enjoyable because he told us all the best places to visit. Would definitely go again and recommend the experience to friends + family. 10 out of 10

    Guide was knowledgeable, but didn't seem to see many places. I have attended Chocolate walking tours in several urban cities and they made more stops and had more tastings. The chocolate treats we did try were all delicious. The value for the dollar was less than expected. Maybe adding more stops to the list??

    We found the tour somewhat disappointing. The impression we went in with was that it would be something more than stopping at six different places and sampling one piece of candy or muffin. The candy was good but we thought there might be some explanation/demonstration of the process. Perhaps a visit to an actual candy factory. In essence we got a sample and a 20% discount if we wanted to purchase. Not really worth it for the cost of the tour.
