This was a fantastic tour. Our guide was Troy, and he was very friendly and knowledgeable as he led us through the grounds. The chocolate samples were also very good, and I wish they had included a few more or possibly a free product with the tour. Still, it was a wonderful time, and I fully recommend this tour.
