A fun off the beaten path tour and fun activity. We did this with some new friends we met on our cruise and had a ball. Highly recommend. 
July 22, 2022Mathew G This was a great experience. Small family operation and our tour guide Emmanuel made it feel more like we were visiting a friend than on a tour. Easy Taxi ride... read more

This was a great tour to go on. We tried a ton of chocolates, made our own bars and had an excellent class. Stephanie was awesome at teaching us all the wonderful things about chocolate and the company itself. We loved it. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to have a genuine experience. It was just us and another family in the tour which gave us very personal attention for questions and conversation. We also had a myan hot cocoa. It's a great place to make a memory. I bought some cocoa beans to take home and teach my boys who didn't get to go on this trip how to make a cocoa bar. A gift that keeps on giving 😊

This was an amazing experience. Stephanie was very knowledgeable and made the entire experience fun. We did the full factory tour where we learned the history of chocolate and got to make some of our own...as well as tasting a LOT of it...for the first time ever my wife said she'd had "enough chocolate"! I would encourage anyone to visit!

Oh my goodness this experience was so amazing!! Stephanie was the sweetest tour guide and learning all about chocolate and it origin, how the Mayans made it. The experience of actually making the chocolate was so fun! Their store is very reasonably priced so we could bring back lots of goodies for our family to enjoy. Third trip to Cozumel and this is the most awesome thing I have done to date. Will be doing this again!!
