We are absolutely thrilled to share some very sweet news: our Chocolate Tour Experience in Edinburgh has been recognised in the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Best of the Best Awards for the fifth year in a row!
This year, we are celebrating not just one, but two incredible achievements. We were ranked 5th for the Best Food & Drink Experience in Europe (8th in the World), and 8th for the Top Experience in the UK across all activities.
What Makes This Award Special?
The TripAdvisor Best of the Best is the highest recognition from the world’s largest travel guidance platform and is awarded to fewer than 1% of the platform’s 8 million listings. It’s based entirely on honest reviews and ratings from guests who’ve visited in the past year, so every smile, every “mmm!”, and every chocolatey memory you’ve shared with us has helped make this possible.
