I am going to belgium and want to take a tour but I am not in a group. Many museums and factories require large groups. Anyone been on a good one? Thanks!

The big factories like Côte d'Or are mostly all booked up. You have to make reservations almost one year in advance...
But hey, it's just factories... Sometimes it's more interesting to go to a small chocolatier. Their chocolates are like little works of art and they often let you watch how they are made!
There are a lot of them on the Sablon in Brussels. (Pierre Marcolini, Godiva, Wittamer...), in the galerie du roi et de la Reine...
Planète chocolat is a chocolate bar and store in one. I'll give you the link. I think it's exactly what you're looking for! They have demonstrations and a small chocolat museum. For individuals too!
The Guylian chocolate bar in Antwerp is great too! And then you have Boon in Hasselt... There you can go & look every day during opening hours, for free!
