Great experience!
I went on this tour with my wife and 6yo daughter and we had a fantastic experience!

Cara provided lots of really tasty chocolates and did a wonderful job teaching us about growing cacao in costa rica and the chocolate making process. We all had a blast getting our hands all chocolately and making our own chocolate candies. The waterfall was beautiful an...read more

A very fun learning experience for all ages.
I highly recommend this tour because it was both educational & fun. We learned so much about growing & processing cacao, and the tastings were incredible. The lovely open air tasting area is magical. The lunch at a neighbor's home was a real highlight.
Chocolate, tea, river and casado… highly recommend!

We had fun trying chocolates and making truffle...read more

Awesome time making chocolates and swimming in the river
We had an amazing experience! The chocolate-making experience with Cara was a highlight. She was friendly and knowledgeable. It was hands-on, and our older son enjoyed cooking the cacao beans (which were locally grown) and grinding the dried beans into cacao paste. We all made chocolate truffles with a lot of ingredients to choose from. Doing all this surrounded by the mountain forests was next level.
Alberto, who guided us down a short hike to the Naranjo River, was great. He was patient, fri...read more
