Exceptional Service, Even When Things Don't Go as Planned
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to experience this tour because a strike closed the roads leading to the location. It was completely beyond anyone's control, but Camon Tours handled everything professionally and processed my full refund without any issues. While I can't review this specific experience, I can confidently recommend Camon Tours based on the other tours I've taken with them. Every experience has been outstanding. They genuinely care about their guests, make you feel safe from pickup to drop-off, and go above and beyond to ensure you have an amazing time. Camilo is an incredible guide and an even better person. As a local, his recommendations for places to eat and things to do are always spot on and have led to some of my favorite experiences. If you're considering booking with Camon Tours, don't hesitate. I'll definitely be booking this cacao tour the next time I'm back!

Hands on Cacao Experience
This chocolate tour was amazing. The family owned farm was an incredible experience and they made us feel welcome and we learned a lot. Our guide, Joshua, was extremely passionate about nature as well and full of answers to our questions, translating along the way. Would highly recommend!

More than what I expected
A unique and authentic experience that goes far beyond just tasting chocolate. The hosts were passionate, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job explaining the history, culture, and importance of cacao in Colombia. The tasting was interactive, fun, and surprisingly educational. I learned a lot about the cacao-making process while enjoying some incredible flavors. The atmosphere was welcoming, and you can tell how much care goes into every part of the experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Medellín who wants to experience something different and connect with Colombian culture through its rich cacao traditions. Thank you again for another great tour
