Discover secrets, facts and tips and get a VIP discount on chocolate, with tours that range from a few hours - to an all day chocolate extravaganza.

Chocolate Ecstasy Tours began in 2005, when Jennifer Earle decided that London's hidden-away, high-end chocolate shops should no longer be kept a secret, nor should people be too intimidated to enter into them any more.

Designed to be a fun introduction to knowing about chocolate, including why good chocolate is good for you and how to identify the good stuff, the tours visit London's best chocolate boutiques for tastings and VIP insights.

There are four tours available to chocolate lovers, starting at £40pp for a three hour tour of Mayfair's ultimate in traditional chocolate. Each tour kicks off with a delicious hot chocolate and all the shops that you visit will be expecting you and on-hand ready to share their delicious chocolate.

A chocoholic from birth, Jennifer grew up in Australia on Cadbury Dairy Milk and Twix. Coming back to live in England again in 2004 she was enchanted by the traditional English chocolatiers and the fancy French boutiques that she discovered on London's gorgeous streets.

These days, Jennifer is still happiest exploring new chocolate shops around the world and introducing fellow chocolate lovers to her favourite chocolates in London. For chocoholics the world over, if your destination is London make sure you include a Chocolate Ecstasy Tours too.
