What you'll do

Experience the sweeter side of London, on a unique tour that allows you to indulge in chocolate from some of the finest boutiques that have been serving visitors and locals for generations.

The Mayfair Chocolate Tour is a journey where you will experience classic English fondants (favourite of the Queen), treats from various European countries, and potentially see some chocolate-making machines up close.

Sample a creation from Europe’s most-awarded chocolatier – with delights incorporating cheese, beer, spices or the more conventional spin on a classic English dessert like the irresistible Banoffee Pie.

Before you start exploring and learning about the streets and arcades of the city, you’ll enjoy a rich hot chocolate. As you sit and savour your guide will share with you their knowledge of the production, stories and history of chocolate.

The tour is as much about local history as it is about chocolate. Your guide has a deep and intimate knowledge of the local areas, the buildings and businesses, the  artisans and creators who have lived and worked here and will share some of its fascinating stories. In a small private group with an expert friendly guide ( who is of course a chocolate lover, like you !) it will feel like a conversation with a knowledgeable new friend.

As well as the Queen’s favourites, you’ll sample treats from the spiritual home of author Roald Dahl on this adventure. Most importantly, get ready to feel completely chocolate-ed out by the end of the tour!
