5.00Amazing experience!!! Loved the whole experience from learning about the plants, seeds, growing process, and finally making a chocolate bar from nibs, cocoa butter, and sugar!! Plus our tour included lunch!! There is a lot of walking on the tour, but it is not horrible. It is so worth it!! Our whole family LOVED it!!
A good change of pace activity!!!

5.00The experience was really cool. My wife and I really enjoyed learning the history of chocolate and how it is now processed. It was really fun making the chocolate bar as well. Our guide Nathan was funny and made the experience that much more enjoyable.
Highly recommended

Overpriced experience

3.00While the guide was great and informative, $69 per person for an hour of chocolate making and leaving with a small chocolate bar is very overpriced. This should be a $30 experience as most.
If you’re not sure - Def do it
