Itinerário
Considerado como "um presente dos deuses", o cacaueiro era muito importante para a cultura antiga. Não foi usado apenas como uma bebida cerimonial, mas suas sementes também foram usadas como moeda por causa de seu valor econômico, em muitas regiões da Mesoamérica, incluindo a Costa Rica. Neste programa “hands on” de 2 horas, você terá a oportunidade de aprender aspectos interessantes de cacau e chocolate, desde sua origem e história, participando de todo o processo de produção, desde a colheita da fruta, secagem e moagem de a semente, também o desenvolvimento da bebida tradicional dos nossos antepassados e, claro, desfrutar de um chocolate orgânico de alta qualidade.

Memorable and educational experience for the whole family!
Absolutely brilliant morning learning all about chocolate history, production and sampling it through every stage in the process. Gexel and Patricia were brilliant guides, fun, informative, engaging. We all totally loved it - thank you so much! Would highly recommend!
Keilor was one of the best tour guides we've ever had! He was super friendly and welcoming, and his dry sense of humor had us absolutely cracking up the entire time while still being genuinely interesting and informative. His group-handling skills were excellent and he made everything about the tour and chocolate-making demonstration fun for the kids and adults at the same time. My daughter is very shy, yet he somehow found a way to make her embrace being our "team leader" and even do a "cacao bean crushing dance" in front of a group of 15 strangers! She told us afterward that he reassured her that she didn't have to do it if she didn't want to, and that he would dance alongside her to help with her shyness. I can't recommend this place (and Keilor) enough! Stop reading this review and book this tour!
What a great experience. Our guide was exceptional. we learned a lot about the chocolate making process, and at the end had the change to try many combinations of chocolate. Highly recommend
Fun and informative chocolate tour. Learned the process from the bean to chocolate. Had the opportunity to walk around the “farm”. At the end we all tasted different combinations of flavors with chocolate. I would highly recommend
Such a fun experience! We learned so much about the process to make chocolate, sampled chocolate, and had a blast creating flavors and adding spices. We also saw a sloth and toucans! I would highly recommend this tour.
We had a great tour and our guide - Keilor El Guapo - was amazing. He not only was funny and made the tour fun but he was also extremely knowledgeable . It was a very informative tour and we also got to see some wildlife - Poison Dart Frog, Sloth and other frogs. We saw how the coco was harvested and fermented. Then we actually helped grind some beans so we could make our own chocolate. It was a fantastic tour and I would do it again!
If you enjoyed Freshman year orientation or get excited for the first day of a new job when they ask you to give three facts about yourself, maybe this tour is for you! For my family, it was a $39 (bad) comedy show and humiliation ritual. I thought this was going to be educational, instead I learned nothing and spent the entire show thinking of ways to pretend to be sick so we could leave early. The guide was misogynistic, irritating and frankly, rude! The chocolate tasted good, but the route we took to get to that was painful.
Sorry that wasn't what you expected. Please contact us to our email to learn more what went wrong.
Very educational tour! Delicious chocolate!
Super cool and entertaining tour with our guide Xexel. She fully integrated the children and we had a wonderful experience tasting the chocolate. Thank you very much and keep it up.
