On Sunday, we highly recommend visiting the museum. After all, Chocolate Nation is the largest Belgian chocolate museum in the world. Throughout 14 rooms you will pass through a fascinating experience which will submerge you in the wondrous world of Belgian Chocolate. From the jungle between the cocoa trees, you follow the cocoa to the port of Antwerp, in a life size moving fantasy machine you can see the whole production process from bean to chocolate. Every visitor will get a unique insight into the traditions surrounding the ‘sweet gold’ and will learn what makes Belgian Chocolate so special and why we are so proud of it. The tour takes around 60 to 90 minutes.  The tour closes with a tasting of 10 different chocolate flavors in our chocolate heaven.
