Very comprehensive on the history of chocolate. Only downside, some audio guide stations require going back. A must-visit! - Very good, absolutely a must-visit, a beautiful and very comprehensive museum!

A dive into the history of chocolate - I would like to give this museum 10 stars... Done very well, the audio guide is in Italian, there are many interactive activities and games for children but above all an unparalleled tasting of white chocolate, milk 3 dark chocolate and a fantastic demonstration of how to prepare pralines with subsequent tasting... Absolutely recommended!

Interactive, Delicious, and Perfect for Kids! - We saved this for the very last morning of our trip before heading to the airport, and it was a phenomenal send-off. We’ve been to a few food museums, but Choco-Story Brussels really gets it right for families. It traces the history of chocolate from the Mayans to modern Belgian masters, but the real star is the live demonstration by the master chocolatier. Watching pralines being made right in front of us (and getting generous free samples!) was fantastic. They even set up a little treasure hunt for the kids to complete as we walked through the exhibits. A highly recommended, sweet experience for all ages.

Great museum with kids - I recommend this great museum with audio guides to learn lots of things in a fun way. Suitable for children as they walk the museum independently. The tasting and final demonstration are a real plus.

Great Museum about Chocolate - Loved the museum and self-guided tour. By the end, you will be very knowledgeable about chocolate! The gift shop was disappointing.
