5.00It was very interesting to find out where the chocolate beans come from and how they divide it from the shell and how they make the chocolate and the young lady who showed us around was really great on her information. I would recommend it to family and friends.

5.00We visited The Chocolatarium in Edinburgh and had an absolutely fantastic time. Our guide (whose name I regret forgetting) was wonderful—she kept the group engaged with the perfect mix of humor, knowledge, and enthusiasm. We learned about chocolate, tasted a wide variety of flavors, and even got hands-on making our own unique chocolate creations. It was the perfect blend of tasting and participation, and the chocolate itself was outstanding. Well worth the time—highly recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh!
