This is a typical family farm located on the outskirts of the city of Guayaquil, just 50 kilometers away, surrounded by plantations of various fruits, including oranges, bananas, star fruit, macadamia trees, lemons, and various other fruit trees, in addition to the most important fruit, which is cacao. Most of these products will be the ingredients for your lunch, and most of them are organic products harvested on the farm itself. You can taste seasonal fruits during your tour.

Wonderful authentic cocoa farm experience
We were on a short layover in Guayaquil on the way home from the Galapagos islands. We were fortunate to find this wonderful day tour, which exceeded our expectations in every way. Our guide, Francisco Did a great job of pointing out highlights along the drive and the Cocoa farm was really interesting.

10/10 experience!
Such a wonderful experience with very fun, welcoming, helpful people! We were able to see, learn about, and experience lots of unique plants and animals, including making chocolate from scratch. This is the type of experience you can only have in Ecuador and I’m glad I went for it. I appreciate how communicative and flexible the tour guide was - we felt informed, safe, and comfortable at every turn. If I ever come back, I’d want to do another tour!

Excellent!
Great experience. Visited a farm with lovely people who were really happy to share and show us around. We processed some cocoa beans. Then, a very tasty lunch at a restaurant in the town nearby. The guide was most gracious and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended! Great way to spend a day and explore.
