I hate to give a poor review but I was disappointed in the experience. As a confessed chocoholic, I had to come to the museum. Made the wander from downtown (a lovely walk along the coast) to find and experience the history of chocolate and how it was made, but was disappointed. Didn't find the investment of time or Euros...

It's a little off the beaten path (a good twenty-minute walk from downtown), and the movie that starts the tour is only in French. Most of the museum is dedicated to old chocolate advertising and antique chocolate molds and machinery. But if you're looking for something different to do in Biarritz, it's a nice diversion and educational about how the...

We didnt do the tour and just went straight to the shop as requested by friends. they have hot choclate which is a must, so the suit case was filled with these coming home as requested from a friend
Boring film all in French. Small museum filled with artefacts you can't touch or even take pictures of - not that anyone would be very interested in seeing photos of them.

Interesting museum with all old labels, machines, etc... The film at the beginning informs you of the process to make chocolate. Great samples of home made chocolate when you buy your entrance ticket. The choc shop is beautiful but pretty pricey.

The shot of delicious hot chocolate at the end of the tour was a nice touch too.

Would not normally have gone to this type of museum but ran out of ideas when it was raining for the 3rd day. Was very impressed with the friendly and helpful staff, their knowledge and the content/displays on offer. Well worth a visit.
The staff were friendly and the short video on how chocolate is produced was very . You also get a cup of hot chocolate at the end of your visit
