Excellent chemical review and walking tour - Excellent small group tasting -after a while you can only eat 1/2 of each chocolate if your not used to it! Our guide was a chemistry major and was excellent ! She described the chemical structures of chocolate (very interesting ) and had a wide variety of chocolate to choose from . Also a great walk and history of the city ! Highly recommend. Buy a few waters to wash it down!(pro tip)

Worth every penny and I’d go again! - Nina was an incredible tour guide! The group was a perfect size, the chocolates were a great variety (and delicious of course) and she had so much knowledge of the area and shops. The history and the variety of information made it so fun.

Very Fun Chocolate Tasting Walking Tour! - We loved Groovy Tours! The walking chocolate tasting tour was very informative and delicious. Our guide had a wonderful sense of humor and gave us so much information about the history of Belgium and Chocolates. We really appreciated the shops that she chose as well as the various different tasting samples. She took us to a variety of chocolatiers ranging from affordable to fancy. It was great to learn the differences.
I wish I could remember her name! She’s studying to become a high school teacher. If you get her you’re in great hands! Would definitely recommend this tour and will come back!

Delicious chocolates and interesting facts about Belgian chocolate - We did the tour with Nina. She not only informed us about the origins and background of the chocolateries, but also told us interesting facts about Brussels in general. When we passed important sights, she also said a few words about it. Overall an entertaining tour with many delicious and sometimes extraordinary chocolates to try. Nina was super friendly. She liked to be listened to. Would recommend the tour.
