Such a great experience! Was so interesting to see how the chocolate's were made and tour guide Greg clearly knew his stuff, and definitely helped make this an unforgettable experience. Lots of opportunities to taste delicious chocolate's and decorate our own. Nothing felt rushed and was a lovely day out. Highlight of my visit to Dublin, would definitely recommend for something fun to do, and family friendly!

Had an amazing time on this tour. Was very interactive and engaging and gave us an insight into how chocolate is made and its history. Learned a lot about chocolate as a whole and about Butler's Chocolate. Our tour guide Greg was fantastic. He gave us an amazing experience and was happy to answer any questions that he had and was very funny also. Of course the experience was topped off with some chocolate included which we got to design at the end of our tour. Defintely something I would do again!

We enjoyed the factory tour so much. It was amazing seeing the factory in work and getting to have free samples, ending with decorating our own chocolate. We had so much fun

A really enjoyable time for all ages! The staff couldn’t be friendlier. Getting to decorate your own chocolate at the end really tops it all off! I’ll definitely be back with all the family! Highly recommend!😊

Had an amazing time on the Butlers chocolate tour. My 8 year old loved the whole experience from the start to the end of the tour. We were brought around by Tadgh who was very good,and friendly and able to answer any questions that were raised. There was another employee who I cant recall her name, blonde girl so nice and helpful and was so good to my 8 year old on the final part of the tour where the painiting part goes on. I would highly recommend this tour and the chocolate is gorgeous, nice touch at the end getting a cert!
