London · LONDON CHOCOLATE TOURS
Good london chocolate tours fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Follow a private guide through Soho and Mayfair, sampling chocolates, pastries, and hot chocolate while learning how chocolate is made and hearing local stories. Guides including Jennifer, Hazel, Natasha, and Tasha bring their own expertise. The walk ends near Oxford Circus after about three hours.
“Natasha was great, really knew her topic. Learned a lot about chocolate and tasted some fantastic chocolate.”
Spend about one to two hours at London’s Chocolate Cocktail Club, the UK’s first dedicated chocolate cocktail bar. Your admission includes one drink, with extra cocktails, cakes, sweet treats, and light bites available to buy. The experience is for adults aged 18 and over.
“Great place for a night if you like chocolate a must visit. Staff go above and beyond. Will definitely be going back.”
Join a small group of up to six for a two-hour Mayfair chocolate walk from Green Park to Piccadilly. Your English-speaking guide, including Paul on some departures, explains chocolate making, health claims, and the cocoa trade while you taste 5+ truffles and ganaches, including treats from two Royal suppliers.
“Great but you shouldn’t advertise it as a 3 hour tour it’s 2 and a half hr your and the guide says that as soon as he meets you”
