Indulge your inner Charlie Bucket and sweet tooth when you visit the delectable Cadbury Chocolate Factory, where you and the entire family will be treated to an appetizing tour of the wonderful world of chocolate. It is located in Claremont, about a half hour’s drive from the city of Hobart, which features world-class apartment accommodation Hobart that is sure to please all guests. The Somerset on Salamanca Hobart is one example of superb accommodation in Hobart that is centrally based and elegantly outfitted for a memorable and exclusive stay. The Cadbury Chocolate Factory’s first point of call is (no, not a Willy Wonka wannabe), but rather, the friendly and welcoming visitor centre, open Monday through Friday, between 08:30am-03:30pm. Adults get in at AUD7.50 and kids at AUD4.00. You can also use the family package of AUD17.50 for two adults and three children. Once you enter, you will be introduced to the inner workings of chocolate production. Witness the art behind chocolate moulding live, and get a taste of raw materials used in the process. You can also treat your palate to sample chocolates and then visit the retail shop, where specialty Cadbury’s merchandise, and of course, all the chocolate they feature, is available at special prices exclusive to the factory alone. A sublimely delicious treat for the whole family, the Cadbury Chocolate Factory must form part of your foodie/sightseeing itinerary in Tasmania.
