Rich History
A chocolate walking tour
H
ere’s a sweet secret: You can take a two-and-a-half-hour weekend chocolate walking tour of Beacon Hill, the Back Bay, the South End, and Harvard Square. Your Boston Chocolate Tours guide will tell you about the history of chocolate and how it’s made, but more importantly you’ll stop at chocolatiers and restaurants to sample some. There are also chocolate workshops, where you can make your own truffles. Healy
Shhhh! Held at Elephant & Castle in
the Financial District, the workshops, like the tours,
are pricey, but you can often score a discount on the
Boston Chocolate Tours Facebook page.
