Must do in Turin - Anna was a wonderful guide and the tour was perfect. Only for people who love chocolate and like walking and learning history and enjoying a beautiful day in Italy. My only regret is that I didn’t want to buy anything because I was afraid it might melt and assumed that I would be able to purchase it someplace else, but I was wrong!

Very knowledgable guide and delicious chocolate! - Marta was the most fantastic tour guide! It was only our group on the tour so we were able to have a very personalised experience and ask lots of questions. All of the stops on the tour were within a short walking distance and everything was delicious. Marta was very knowledgeable and made the tour very enjoyable. I would highly recommend!

Best way to spend a Saturday morning - Great tour and chocolate tasting experience. We enjoyed visiting the family owned chocolate shops and learning the history behind chocolate in Turin. Marta was our guide and she also shared recommendations for restaurants. Highly recommended!

Torino’s Specialty Sweet Shops - Regal, Historic & Delicious - Carolina was a knowledgeable and personable guide that was great with both kids and adults. She wove the history of the city and the region in with the descriptions of how the different chocolates and confections are made, which made each of the spots we stopped come alive. Each shop had something different and delicious.

Ultimate Chocolate Tour! - What a great tour with Carolina! A fantastic overview of some chocolate specialties in Torino, a bit of interesting Piedmontese chocolate history, and some bonus architecture notes as we walked through the squares. We left feeling high on chocolate and lots of good conversation!

Highly recommended chocolate tour - Very good experience for sweet (and especially chocolate) lovers. Didn't quite understand at first it would be pretty much all about chocolate but still worth the experience. Carolina, the guide, is very nice and well prepared. Be ready to skip lunch or dinner because you'll have a fair amount of sweets. Definitely leave room for the bicerìn though, the best one in my opinion.

Just an 'ok' tour - This was just an 'ok' tour. The shops we stopped into were nice. However, our guide provided little information on the origin of sweets/chocolate in the area or what each shop was specifically known for. We had to 'pump' her for information. At some shops, we were instructed to each choose 3-4 items to try. We had to ask what each item was, its significance to the area, and whether it was a speciality of the shop.
