A beautiful combination of sights and chocolate of Ghent - Nick took us through Ghent to all kinds of chocolate and sweet shops. Along the way he also showed striking/touristy buildings etc. of Ghent. Nick was a great storyteller and involved all the nationalities of our group in his stories. In addition, the chocolate etc. we tasted were great! There was a nice build-up. From ‘ordinary’ to very special. Only then will you find out what history of chocolate Ghent has! Highly recommended, this tour!

Fantastic chocolate tour! Highly recommend! - We had the most wonderful time with Vera on our Ghent chocolate tour. She was incredible! So friendly and knowledgable. We went to at least 8 shops over the course of a couple of hours and she told us really interesting facts about the shops themselves as well as the buildings and landmarks in Ghent. It was the highlight of our trip and would highly recommend it to anyone!

Great tour! More about gant and less about chocolate than i expected - I thought we had an amazing friendly host who was able to storytell very well. It would have been nice to learn more about the relationship belgium has with chocolate, and why gant has so mant chocolate shops. The chocolates were great!
