Not really a chocolate "factory", more of a museum and some chocolate history. Some free samples throughout, but one of the machines was broken.

Renate was amazing. Kind calm funny and friendly. The weather was awful and i have never seen so many difficult people saying they didn't want to do this bit or that bit. Just disappearing which is why rude when you have booked this trip. She was clear all the time with times people should meet yet we still lost people so it wasn't very nice for her. She handled it well. Her information on the bus was excellent and gave good information. The boat trip was good. For me the jury is out on the chocolate factory. Just boring listening to the recorders. I have been to better chocolate factories. And lindt make you feel like a criminal cause you can't take your bag in with you. Are you really going to pinch chocolate balls???? You are very clearly told take one of each only! An enjoyable day where we felt looked after by an incredible host.

Best tour ever booked via viator - mid january so not too busy but something else we took the boat to get there and bus to get back. Multi zone city tickets are a great way to go

Great tour with very knowledge able tour guide. I loved the brief driving tour of the city seeing different areas I would not have otherwise visited. Also really appreciated the walking tour of old town. I had walked the area the day before solo, but doing it again with a guide who shared more historic context was far more interesting. The boat ride to the chocolate factory wasn't too long, although the boat was very crowded and we had to stand. Would recommend getting their earlier to get seating (especially indoor seating if going during the winter). By the time you get to the factor you're likely hungry so I'd recommend gabbing lunch first before starting the museum tour. It's very crowded so grabbing seating will be difficult. The tour is self paced so you can spend more / less time in each area. I especially liked the free bon bons at the end. Tour attendees have the option to meet the guide at a specified time to return by boat. Or you can leave on your own and take a bus back into town (which is directly across the street from the museum and is a straight shot. very easy). I'm glad I went and would highly recommend.
