We had a wonderful visit. The workshop was very informative, and the museum was particularly well-designed for children, as there were many opportunities for interaction and play.

Probably the best experience we had in Prague. Karl, the operations manager, was extremely nice and well presented. He guided us through the how to best experience their museum and workshop. After we went through the museum, he sat down with us and gave us an extensive overview of the company and how their products are made and sourced.

Super kid friendly with lots for them to do with an indoor and outdoor play area, mini arcade and a surprise in the museum itself. Would highly recommend.

I have to say that the guide's narration completely drew me in and I felt like a planter (as the guide brilliantly remarked: umpalumpa) 😁 I have to warmly recommend it for all ages who like chocolate. We must visit this place!!!! ) and this place is worth visiting!!!! We were with children and they also enjoyed it.

Experiential chocolate factory. Great entertainment for children, kind and helpful staff, pleasant environment, interesting information via a mobile application that functions as a personal guide to the museum. I recommend it, the museum is interesting for older children, but there is also a lot of fun for the little ones. Making chocolate hearts is a wonderful experience even for adults and they are delicious! Like all their chocolate 🍫😍

We visited today with our family, we liked the place already from the photos we found on the internet. The place itself is beautiful, upon entering you are greeted by pleasant staff who will explain every step of this visit. He will then take you to the main hall, from where you can continue your tour or fortify yourself with some good chocolate at the bar. The only thing I missed here was a live guide 😅, because everything is via an application that you can download upon entering, and it will guide you through the entire tour with an explanation. I understand that the times are a bit different, but a living guide is just a living guide 😅.
During the tour, you have the opportunity to taste chocolate, which is available at the stations in smaller vending machines. Of course, it is included in the price of the tour, so you don't have to pay anything for it anymore, you can practically arrange it as you please 😁. The tour with the app itself takes about 30 to 40 minutes, depending on who listens to the app and how. Of course, you can make chocolate lollipops that you can then take home, you have 6 lollipops per person, which is not bad 😁. But here you have to expect that it will take a while, today we took a tour including chocolate production, which took us an hour and a half. Of course, this is not a cheap matter, the tour including the production cost us 2146 CZK (family entrance fee 2+2). However, what is not expensive today, the tour is definitely worth it, if you don't know or who are just a little interested, then this is the right thing. There are a lot of interesting things that we just can't find. The kids enjoyed it as much as we did. It's probably like any other trip, everyone will find their own here, anyway, what I know now is that I don't even want to see chocolate again for a while 😅😅, I recommend tasting it sparingly 😁. It's a really wonderful experience, so I definitely recommend going here if you haven't been here yet.

My kid really enjoyed the chocolate workshop where you can handcraft your owned chocolate.
I would like to sincerely thank Lucie especially for the warm welcome and all explanations during the visit.
I strongly recommend Chocotopia if you are looking for a family activity .

Chocotopia (Průhonice) is a good place to relax with the family, an interesting museum, friendly staff and the most interesting thing is that you can make chocolate treats yourself. I recommend 😊🍫🍭🍬

An hour well spent in the museum and then at the workshop, which is actually self-made from 3 prepared chocolates and a few (about 7 ingredients). The result was very nice, I hope it will taste good

At the entrance, we were greeted by a very kind and talkative Mr. Karel, who explained to us what awaits us in Chocotopia. We had purchased admission plus making our own chocolate lollipops. The tour was great, we could try different types of chocolates, drink chocolates, hear all about chocolate, look at the exhibits... We were also given a tasting in the store with their sweet products, which I was extremely excited about, because it was pleasant and relaxed atmosphere🤍 if I ever manage to do it, I will definitely take my children here as well. I recommend visiting this place with all ten 🫶

One of the best experiences in Prague. We had fun for almost 2 hours. Mr. Karel, who welcomed us and then took care of us during the tour, is very talkative, willing and friendly. The tour was not only informative, but also entertaining and very tasty. We also took advantage of the opportunity to make our own chocolate hearts. This place is definitely worth a visit, we will return here with the children. We recommend to all ten people a tour with a chocolate workshop and the purchase of chocolates.

The Chocolate factory was really wonderful. It was really cool to make to yourself chocolate lollipop at the end of the tour. If you visit Pargue you must visit this place. This was a beautyful end to my family trip, we really enjoyed it.

The visit exceeded our expectations! Interesting interpretation via audio guide on mobile, can be adapted to the government's pace. A wonderful exhibition about the history of chocolate production, a great chocolate workshop, where everyone creates 6 chocolate lollipops. And a wonderful Fantasy world, where children can reduce the 20-minute wait for their chocolate products. Very kind and helpful staff. We will definitely be happy to come back here.

A very interesting tour for children and adults. In the workshop we had the opportunity to make our own lollipops. All very nicely thought out. The girls in the workshop were nice and helpful. Many thanks to the manager Karl Uhlíř for his perfect approach and willingness to explain everything and insight into the production processes. 🙂 I recommend!

The chocolate museum was a fabulous experience. Didn’t know that cocoa’s history starts from the age of discovery. Felt like time travelling. The curator Kristina provided very friendly service. Highly recommend this place.

Perfect. We were there with our daughter for 3 years and 9 months and she enjoyed it very much and so did we. Great tastings, excellent demonstration of chocolate that you can tap. Full information. Possibility to tour at your own speed. The possibility to eat unlimited chocolate on each floor, which I really appreciate as we were in a chocolate factory in Belgium, where it was only possible at a certain time and it was disheartening for us. This way you could enjoy chocolate practically the whole time and go back to sleep, which I really appreciate. It was also great to make your own chocolate lollipops. The parrots even said Hi to us and we were able to buy some great chocolate in the e-shop at the end. 🙂 I also don't want to forget the gentleman at the reception, who was extremely pro-client and explained everything nicely and helped. For an even better experience, I would definitely recommend fixing the coin machine, improving the application so that it doesn't crash. Increase the playback speed by 2x, I like to play my recordings faster. Change the thermos for chocolate, how long it took us to figure out how to tap it, since it was closed. In the cinema, they could show something more lively and a little longer, and there could also be a Czech dubbing, for example. with English subtitles or vice versa. It might have been nice to grab at least one real cacao tree or cacao beans, as I felt they were all artificial, although I understand the terms. There are certainly many things that can be improved, but overall the feeling compared to the visit to Belgium was at a very high level and I'm glad that something like this exists in Prague. Thank you for a great experience that ensured a beautiful day for us. 🙂

We visited candy Topia and enjoyed the experience. The children learned how to make delicious and beautiful candies and we enjoyed the process just as much. At the end of the preparation we all got a taste of everything.
During the preparation, Hatra and a charming and smiling guy were there, my daughter fell at the end and the girl was so nice, made her a heart-shaped candy and brought it, it moved us a lot.
I recommend everyone to come visit and enjoy, and of course buy some of the special sweets at the end.

The candy show was really cool. There are some 6 times a day and we got candy before and then after as well. After the show you get fresh candy from the batch that was just made😁.

Absolutely enchanting. As close as you can get to visiting Wonka’s own factory. There is a perfect balance of nerdy historical info (and artifacts) on the evolution of chocolate for adults, and silly, fun, candy wonderland stuff for kids. We were lucky enough to meet the owner, who talked us through behind-the-curtains chocolate industry stuff, and clarified some of the fascinating history we’d just learned. It’s a real labour of love, and an absolute must-do for families in Prague.

Truly a unique chocolate experience. If you are a connoisseur of Chocolate or simply have a sweet tooth you will love this place. We tried the chocolate covered marshmallows and hot chocolate. The white chocolate for the marshmallow was perfect. The Hot Chocolate drink is probably one of the best hot cocoa I have ever had, the taste is rich and creamy. It feels very warm and filling to the stomach. I highly recommend you at least try the hot cocoa, you will not go wrong.
