5.00Booked this tour via Julian tours. They picked us up at the hotel and we first visited the farm where the farmer introduced us to the cocoa trees and gave us a very education talk on the growing and health benefits of chocolate. From there we visited the factory where we were taught how chocolate is made in the very same place as Prince William and Kate. We then made and tasted some chocolate ourselves. Overall an excellent and enjoyable tour.
Most excellent tour.

4.00This tour is so much fun learning about something new and being hands on we're my favorite things that won't be easy to forget. The guides were so open to sharing the chocolate making process, from the farm to mouth. Gotta check it out. It's gonna be hot so bring a portable fan with you to help stay cool. Very minimal walking and driver has a cooler with water bottles which really help kept me cool.
