MFT is pleased to announce two tours for chocolate lovers, in Portland’s Old Port and the Village of Freeport. The talent in both towns is fantastic, and the content and flavors are different, so you may just need to enjoy both!

Please check back with us later this Spring to see our Summertime schedule.

FREEPORT VILLAGE Chocolate Lovers Tour

Savor the flavors of chocolate on the sweetest tour in town! Join us on a delightfully fun guided walking tour and sample Freeport’s finest chocolate. This tour includes a little background about chocolate, a little history about Freeport, and a whole lot of tasting a variety of cocoa creations. Your guide will take you on a leisurely walk to 6-7 shops and eateries in the Village where you’ll enjoy chocolate creations with the chocolatiers, gelato makers and pastry chefs who have turned life-long hobbies into fully fledged professions with tasty success! Shoppers enjoy discounts at most locations along the way.

Portland is home to talent creating all sorts of deliciousness with chocolate! Explore the sweet and savory tastes on a guided walk around the Old Port. Learn the benefits of chocolate as we enjoy them at 6-7 locations, from baked goods and confections to hand made artisan truffles.
