What’s not to like …. - So, what’s not to like! A whole 90 minutes of learning and tasting different chocolate, including making your own chocolate bar that you can take home! The Chocolatarium is just off the Royal Mile and easy to find. Booking is essential for the tour but not if you just want to buy chocolate! Bogi, our tour guide, was fantastic, very informative and fun. When booking this, I did wonder whether the price per ticket would actually be worth it, but it most definitely is and I have no problem recommending that you visit if you can.

A great experience - A great experience 100 percent recommended. Hannah, our “professor” great, always attentive and very friendly. The facilities very well. Chocolate tests and being able to make your own chocolate are great. If you are going to Edinburgh do not stop doing this activity, both adults and children. Congratulations to the Chocolatarium team for the workshop you have organized.

Truffle making magic! - Received a gift voucher for the truffle making experience and went along to the 5.30pm class, loved it! Honestly they packed so much into the two hour experience, from learning about how chocolate is made to making two types of (gorgeous) truffles and chocolates, then entering the tasting room to try the many different types of chocolate they sell. That part was particularly amazing! Would highly recommend!

Coos, we all love chocolate! - This was a fabulous way to spend an afternoon in Edinburgh! Our guide Carina was fantastic! Full of energy and knowledge she lead the 1.5 hour tour with humour AND delicious chocolate. I mean who doesn’t love chocolate? Lots of sampling PLUS you got to make your own custom chocolate bar. Molds included Highland Coos, Nessie and Harry Potter inspired options. Highly recommend. Do yourself a favour, book this tour!
