Höjdpunkter

Bristol’s rich history has a sweet side, with a long chocolate making heritage. From the Georgian’s first imports of sugar and cocoa, to Fry’s producing the first chocolate bar, Bristol’s history is intertwined with the sweet stuff. Join us for a historic ramble through the Old Town sampling delicious treats along the way. The perfect tour for those with a sweet tooth! Your tour begins at the bottom of Christmas Steps – a street as pretty as its name. Your guide will describe how chocolate has shaped the city whilst you pass hidden rivers, world class street art and buildings which date back to the origins of the city. You’ll then wander towards the old town, passing 300 year old sugar houses, medieval streets whilst stopping to nibble chocolatey delights along the way. Your chocolate tour then finishes amongst the magical independent traders of St. Nicholas Market, where you can then spend the rest of the day exploring the market stalls in your own time.

  • 5A great history of chocolate in Bristol

    What a great hour and a half gentle walk around Bristol learning the history of the chocolate industry. Duncan was so knowledgeable and made the tour fun with his bag of surprises. Look forward to joining him for some of his other tours in the future. Cant believe our Cousin won the golden ticket as well

  • 5Chocolate heaven!

    We really enjoyed our private chocolate tour of Bristol! We had no idea just how significant Bristol’s role was in the history and development of chocolate. Duncan’s wealth of knowledge was impressive, and he shared it in such a fun and engaging way. We would definitely recommend this experience to others. One small note—it would have been lovely to start the tour with some chocolate cake from the charming cake shop at the bottom of Christmas Steps even if it meant paying a little more, but that just means we’ll have to plan a return visit! Instead of visiting chocolate shops along the way as I initially expected, Duncan surprised us by carrying a cool bag stocked with delicious chocolates, which made the tasting even more special.

  • 5A ten out of ten experience through and through

    I must give credit to Duncan, who was unbelievably at hand during our tour – which ultimately felt very much like a private one due to the group's small size on the occasion. He led us through the heart of Bristol, following a path that allowed him to share so much history. There were unexpected pieces of information, images, a few good chances for discussion, but most importantly a well-prepared guide who knows his stuff and went above and beyond for us. Along the tour there are treats to taste that accompany the story of the city's involvement in the field of chocolate, but that was not the only narrative the tour dealt with. We ended the tour feeling decidedly satisfied with every aspect of it, which I'm confident applies to all of Duncan's other tours. Once ours was over, he went so far as helping us plan our day-trip; that alone makes him a shining example for all tour guides!

  • 5Chocolate - what's not to like!

    I am a Bristol native, however, I learnt a lot from this tour, in a fun and innovative way. I found the tour was good value for money and the length of the tour was perfect with about the right amount of participants to allow everyone to ask questions and most importantly to be able to hear what the guide had to say. I would highly recommend this tour and I fully intend to book on more tours with this company.

About Bristol

Bristol is a harbour city in south-west England, known for the Clifton Suspension Bridge, Brunel's SS Great Britain, street art and a creative streak.

Bristol grew rich as a port on the Avon, and the floating harbour at its heart is lined with museums, warehouses turned into flats, and cafés. Brunel's SS Great Britain, the pioneering iron steamship, sits in the dry dock where she was built, and nearby are the M Shed museum and Aerospace Bristol, home to a Concorde. Above the Avon Gorge, Brunel's Clifton Suspension Bridge spans the cliffs, with lawns and Georgian terraces on the Clifton side.

Top-ranked sights in Bristol: Smoke & Mirrors, Brunel's SS Great Britain, Cabot Tower.
