A CHOCOLATE LOVER’S WALKING ADVENTURE

This moderately paced 4 1/2 mile walk is all about artisanal chocolate.

• We will start at Columbus Circle.
• The walk will last about 4 hours on city streets, including visits to 6 chocolate shops with numerous drop-out points along the way.
• We will end in SOHO at a boutique/cafe with a selection of frozen and hot chocolates.

Our stops include a mix of international, national, and local small batch artisanal chocolate makers, all highly rated.
Chocolates range in price from $1 to $5 per piece, to approximately $65/lb.
There may be some sampling as well.
It is recommended that you bring cash and/or credit cards if you’d like to purchase chocolate (keep in mind that there will be at least 6 unique chocolate makers).

The group is limited to 20 walkers due to the size of some of the chocolate shops, If you don't get on this walk, don't worry. We will repeat the walk.
