"Salome and Ian were so much fun, their passion and enthusiasm were contagious, and we learned so much from them while tasting all kinds of delicious chocolates from all over the world! This was one of the highlights of our trip, I would recommend it to anybody."
"This was so much more than a chocolate tasting alone! It was like meeting new friends. The chocolate we tasted was from another level, I never knew there was so much to know about chocolate. They knew every story behind every chocolate we tried. On top of that Ian & Salomé mixed the chocolate tasting with stories on Amsterdam's history and even gave some great tips on what to do in the area after. This was the most local experience I've had while visiting. Can def. recommend!"
"I loved this experience. Ian was very welcoming and knowledgable. He and his wife own a chocolate & spice shop in the city center and I enjoyed all of the chocolates. They make some chocolates themselves and have so many choices. I was surprised with all the different choices and learned a lot about chocolate and old Amsterdam. \nI could even buy a nice Christmas gift for my vegan-and-gluten-free mom! Great experience, would recommend to all. Thank you Ian!"
"We hebben deze experience gedaan samen met onze dochters van 11 en 8 jaar. Annet weet de hele groep te betrekken en de opdracht leuk en uitvoerbaar te maken voor iedereen. Als locals hebben we Amsterdam weer op een hele nieuwe manier ontdekt. De iphone fototips nemen we mee ! "
"Samen met mijn 12 jarige dochters heb ik een workshop bij Annet gevolgd. Dit bleek een perfecte match, want mijn puberdochters doen niets liever dan met hun iPhone rondlopen en Annet speelde hier perfect op in. Ze is heel laagdrempelig en sluit goed aan bij de uitgesproken en onuitgesproken wensen van ons alle 3. Het was gezellig en gemoedelijk, maar bovenal leerzaam. We zijn uitgedaagd en konden gedurende ons 4 dagen durende verblijf in Amsterdam al het geleerde in de praktijk brengen. Met als resultaat een heleboel mooie en verrassende foto's. Praktisch, leerzaam en heel erg leuk!!"
"And learned to look differently at the city. The kids also enjoyed the tour. "
