    The chocolate tour was fantastic! It’s more than just eating chocolate. Our tour guide, Adriana was a joy to watch. Her passion for the City of Geneva and the deep Swiss history were told with an Oscar winning performance. The different chocolates were amazing to indulge the sweet tooth of the entire group. I really enjoyed the history lesson of the amazing architecture during the walk. I would highly recommend the chocolate tour and our wonderful guide Adriana!!!
