Ghent Chocolate Tasting and Sightseeing Tour

About this activity

This indulgent tour takes you on a 2-hour journey through the heart of Ghent, where history, storytelling, and chocolate come together. As you stroll through the city, you’ll pamper your taste buds, boost your endorphins, and enjoy a guilt-free blend of culture and delicious chocolate tastings. Your Ghent Chocolate Tour begins at the Jacob Van Artevelde statue on the Vrijdagmarkt, where your guide warmly welcomes you and sets the scene. From there, you’ll explore the historic city centre, with stops at Korenlei, Graslei, the three medieval towers, and the famous Graffiti Street. Along the way, you’ll discover fascinating stories, such as the tale of two Greek brothers whose passion for this aphrodisiac led one of them to worldwide fame. During the tour, you’ll make 5 carefully selected stops, each offering a different chocolate speciality. No two tastings are the same. As an extra treat, you’ll also enjoy exclusive discounts at selected partners.
