    • The Chocolate Museum, a delicious cocoa journey to experience in Porto

      What a beautiful quality that is gluttony! At WOW, a unique and original cultural district located in Vila Nova de Gaia in Porto, the taste buds are delighted with the aromas and flavors of chocolate at the Chocolate Museum open every day from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. (last entry at 7pm).

       

      Exhibitions, videos, and explanations, discover all the secrets of the cocoa bean as well as its history, origin and cultural significance, without forgetting the secrets of its manufacture behind the scenes of the chocolate factory. Fantasy scenarios are surprising offering an immersive experience in the wonderful world of chocolate.

       

      Be patient, at the end of the visit, you will find the Vinte Vinte Café, where you can savor chocolate treats, sip a creamy hot chocolate and even discover a surprising combination of chocolate and Port wine.

       

      The little extra: an audio guide is available in Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, German and Korean

       

      The curious will be delighted to continue their visit through the museums and the temporary WOW exhibition, where catering areas allow you to take a break during the day.

    Wonderful museum exploring chocolate, it's well presented, interactive and informative. The tasting was great and the little chocolate grab game at the end was great fun.

    We had an amazing time while visiting the museum! Obviously we enjoyed the tastings - all employees (Eliana told us her name but the rest of the stuff was wonderful too) were really nice and cheerful and they told us information about every piece of chocolate that we tried. Like in all the other WOW museums I really liked how the space is designed and how not overwhelming it is in terms of information.
