The museum is world class; the quality of the material presented and the style of presentation are both of a high order. BUT, the guided tour is in italian language only; no effort is made to provide other languages, even in a recorded format, even English. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE

Luisa clearly has a passion for history and has an incredible amount of knowledge of Turino. Prepare yourself to be swept away by a lot of Italian history, interesting anekdotes and architectural knowledge. We felt like we owed her more and her pricepoint should be higher (she even exceeded her time to guide us). Highly recommend if you want to learn about the true story of Torino!

First time to Turin and was not disappointed - schedule was perfect, we were able to see authentic markets, eat great pasta at a nice restaurant, and drink some of the amazing local wine (Barolo). Favourite part was the local farmers market where we got to try several cheeses and meats. Highlight as well was the famous chocolate coffee! Very professional and highly recommended.
7. Turin Chocolate Capital Tour: Experience Gianduia & Other Cacao Specialties
Overall Ratings
4.7 based on 6 reviews
Turin is the Italian capital of chocolate and if you are a lover of the so-called "black gold", you cannot let this chance slip! Turin’s love affair with chocolate begins in the 16th Century, when ’the food of gods’ was first imported to Italy by Charles V. It immediately became popular amongst the nobility and in royal courts, and a century later the first license was granted to sell to the public. By this time, in Turin, several manufacturing processes had already been tried out, which led, over time, to the creation of the famous Giandujotto, the indulgent Bicerin, and in more modern times, the inimitable spreadable chocolate - Nutella. Led by your local gourmand guide, you will have an unforgettable experience tasting some of the best products in town: Bicerin in the café of the same name, where it was invented; Giandujotto and the pralines of an award-winning master chocolatier and the "Pinguino" ice cream of Pepino!

Patrizia was a lovely friendly guide. After a visit and enjoying a sweet breakfast treat at the stylish cafe San Carlo, Patricia provided an excellent account of San Carlo’s square and other historical commentary of Torino whilst making our way to Porto Palazzo food market. We relished a variety of cheeses and a glass of wine. The only complaint was it was over so quickly,

Wish we had read the reviews before booking. Palermo is quite small and most the main sights are very central, so you don’t really need a bus tour. However, even if you are not keen on walking, the bus tour will be of little use, as the advertised ‘hop on, hop off, every 20 minutes’ is simply untrue. The bus only arrives every 90 minutes (we lunched in a restaurant next to the stop we alighted from and that was the time gap). In addition, there is no access to a live map for bus arrivals, so you have no idea when the next bus will arrive. In a nutshell, it’s a rip off.
