Great, informative and fun your with hands on chocolate making. Our guide Caesar was very knowledgeable and attentive. We have learned a lot about medicinal planes growing on the farm. Please note that transportation is not included in the price and could cost you additional $70-$80 for a round trip on a private taxi from LaFortuna.

So fun! We enjoyed learning about the many plants on their farm, especially the cocoa pods and the interesting process of growing, fermenting, drying, and roasting cocoa beans. It was fun tasting the cocoa beans and nibs and the sweet membrane that covers the beans. Then we went into a covered area where we ground the beans, mixed them with sugar, and made the drink of the Gods and 3 bon bons each. We could each choose the toppings we wanted. The guide kept it fun and interesting. The chocolate was delicious, 4 in our group loved the drink of the Gods, 2 said it was too strong and bitter for them, We all loved the bon bons!

Wow. This was an experience! A Tour, thanks to the off-season period, for two, only!

We learned a lot about chocolate. The growth, different kinds, the production process towards the desired bar shaped final good and also some nice to know facts about history. Some ridiculous funny rituals and numerous tastings made this afternoon to something unforgettable for us. Nothing to regret. (:

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative, and also a lot of fun. He did fun dances with a drum beat to explain how the Mayans made hot chocolate. The chocolate itself was very tasty, and the kids really enjoyed making their own bonbons. The tour was educational and we learned a lot about chocolate making process. Highly recommended.

We had very little idea of what to expect on this tour. (If you’re in San Jose, the drive to this gem is out of the way but well worth it. Advise you to book your tour earlier in the day so you don’t hit nightfall on your drive back, especially if driving through La fortuna.) But this tour is 5/5 stars. We had the wonderful Yara be our tour guide and she was the sweetest and most knowledgeable person! You’re taken through the forest area, then explained of the process to extract the chocolate and make your own chocolate! Take the time to see this amazing place, and if possible have Yara be your tour guide. Also maybe wear some insect repellent.

Very informative providing info on more than just the cacao plant; great person touch by the tour guide; very friendly; and I loved the interaction where we got to make our own chocolate creations, grind God's drink and then make some take home treats. Incredible local small business!

Not only a great tour, but included an engaging tour guide, Caesar who had us singing, dancing with his enthusiastic narrative. Truly, a great time and well worth the money.
