Review of Cologne Chocolate Museum, with cocoa history, working factory, tastings, Rhine views, family tips, pricing, and practical advice.
“When we arrived we found out our tickets were just an entrance fee. I asked about a tour and the attendant said we could ask at the main counter. A few minutes later the manager came to us and gave us tickets to a chocolate tasting demo. It was excellently done and made the rest of the visit more enjoyable. To be honest, the ticket from GYG had no perks.”

Review of Cologne IceBar entry: three drinks, ice sculptures, warm clothing, transport tips, pricing, cold-room limits, and who should book.
“The room is small like a small bedroom, not much to see. Staff are friendly you received 2 tokens for inside the frozen room and 1 token for outside. To be honest I have been to ice bars in other countries and this is probably the worst I have been to. It really isn’t an experience, it’s like walking into a freezer for 10-15 minutes no ambience. The only thing that made it was the staff”
