Why You Should Go: If life is like a box of chocolates, you'd rather it not be like a boring box of drugstore cocoa confections. You want chocolates like you want your life, full of exciting flavors, interesting experiences, and a French guy named Jacques. Explore the wonderful world of chocolate by spending one day of your life on a Chocolate Tour of New York.

Why You’ll Love It: Stroll through some of the New York's most decadent dessert boutiques and chocolatiers with an expert tour guide (and lover of the cocoa) giving you a glimpse into what the city has for chocoholics. Of course, all that calorie-burning walking means you’ll have to fuel up with eight sidewalk or in-store tastings of delicious truffles, salty caramels, nutty bark, creamy mousses, and more.

What You’ll Tour: To be come the resident NYC chocolate expert of your friends and family, you’ll first have to hit a few key spots. You’ll browse the foodie paradise known as Chelsea Market, take a look into Jacques Torres aka Mr. Chocolate’s mad-scientist-like chocolate lab, and taste some intense, real flavors at Chocolate Bar Chocorgasm. And that’s just to start.
