Tired of all the run of the mill tours in Vegas? The you might want to check out the Ethel M Chocolate Factory and Botanical Cactus Gardens.  Featured on the Ultimate Hoover Dam Comedy Tour, it's a sure fire hit for those that have a sweet tooth.

 

The guided chocolate tour gives audiences an up close and personal look at how these tasty treats are made. From the filling of the candy all the way to the wrapping of the foil, you will be able to see it all through a large glass window. Of course your tour comes to a sweet end as you make a stop at the Chocolate Shoppe.  You can pick from treats such as Caramel Splendors, Almond Clusters and Latin Satin Cremes. Of course the first sample is free, but you are going to have to pay for the rest.

 

Once you get done with your scrumptious snack you can head out to the three acre Botanical Cactus Gardens which is filled with lush, tropical landscapes. Featuring more than 350 different types of cactus', the garden is the largest in the nation. In addition to benches placed throughout the garden there are trees such as Desert Willow and Twisted Acacia which provide plenty of shade.

 

Whether you are a chocolate lover or a nature lover the Ethel M Chocolate Factory and Botanical Cactus Gardens is the perfect way to spend your afternoon.
