CHELSEA — Take a dessert-centric tour that won’t end with a fall into a chocolate river this Valentine’s Day.

On Feb. 6, 13 and 14, “elite dessert tour company” Sugartooth Tours is offering 1.5-mile treks to the best spots for treats like cupcakes, macarons, hot chocolate and half-pound cookies in Chelsea.

The walks will start at West 18th Street and Eighth Avenue, wind through Chelsea, hit spots including Chelsea Market and the High Line, and end in the West Village with wine, beer and a final “decadent dessert,” the company said on its website.

A tour guide will discuss the neighborhood’s “significant culinary past," Valentine's Day history and trivia as tour-goers "cuddle close moseying down the High Line sipping hot chocolate,” the company added.

“Each year, the Valentine’s tour is our most popular tour,” Sugartooth Tours co-founder Sarah Morgan said in a statement. “Whether you’re from the city or just visiting, this tour shows a side of the city that most don’t know about!”

Valentine’s Day tours will take place on Feb. 6 and 13 at 4 p.m., and Feb. 14 at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.

Tickets are available for $50 on the Sugartooth Tours website.
