    While 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

    Great experience and nice little touches made it feel value for money but you don't go on a working farm per se - to see the process, you go in to a greenhouse and walk to different parts of it where a couple of workers show you that part of the process. Lunch was amazing! We booked on the 1pm tour but arrived early and could have lunch before (it's usually at the end of the tour so 3pm so be prepared or go early if you want to eat at lunchtime). Big group so couldn't really hear the guide at times.

    This was a fun and educational experience! Our guide, Jonathan was kind, humorous and knowledgeable. Our tour included a chocolate making experience which was good work but culminated with our own chocolate to take home The tour concluded with a delicious meal.
