My daughter and I had a wonderful time on our tour. Our guide, Cesar, was so fun, warm and knowledgeable. The little cafe at the reception area had excellent brownies and ice cream as well.
Great tour

We really enjoyed the your. The rain didn’t affect the experience and we were shown the whole process and making the chocolates was fun.
Yari was a great tour...
Meera_S, Aug 2023
Yari was a great tour guide with lots of knowledge, enthusiasm, and approachable to answer any questions relating to chocolate or Costa Rica in general. It was a great immersive experience where we were able to be more hands on. And we saw two sloths on the property which was an added plus. They also bring you through the trees, so I would recommend wearing sneakers.
Great tour

Tour guide was awesome. The family that went on the tour with us was extremely annoying, but besides that it was an amazing Tour.

Great Chocolate Making Tour
Grant_S, June 2023
Excellent tour with a very pleasant and knowledgeable guide (Jaritza). The whole family had a great time. We even managed to spot a couple tree sloths while touring the property.
fun and interesting experience
Ronit_P, June 2023
The farm is very close to La Fortuna. We got there early and were treated to a fruit smoothie and cold water. There is a beautiful balcony overlooking the river and there we waited until the rest of the group arrived. The farm is small and they only grow an amount that is sufficient for local consumption, but it was definitely enough to teach us about the process of making chocolate, and the truth is that it was very interesting. The special part was that our guide was simply hilarious. He activated us and made us laugh and we had a lot of fun.
So all in all the experience was very pleasant and entertaining and also enlightening.
The best tour!
Staci_P, June 2023
This tour was one of the most fun things we did in La Fortuna. Cesar was so much fun! You can tell he really loves what he does. We laughed so much and had such a great time! He was so friendly and taught us so much about the cacao, historical facts about chocolate, and we taste tested any combination of chocolate we wanted. The highlight was opening the cacao and tasting it straight out of the fruit! Amazing! 10/10 recommend!!
Cesar if you’re reading this, thank you for the best time! Guanabana!
Great chocolate tour!
Laurel_B, June 2023
Cesar was an excellent guide. Highly recommend this tour. We definitely learned a lot and have a new respect for what it takes to make a quality chocolate.
Great great tour
Ricardo_C, June 2023
Amazing experience. The guide was so kind, fun and charismatic that made our tour worth just by itself. The tour is very well planned, you get to learn about chocolate trees and chocolate, and you make and taste a loooooot of chocolate. Was really good. Definitely recomend.
Fun and entertaining!!
Sumer_S, June 2023
We took the 10am chocolate tour with Caesar. He was engaging from start to finish and made the learning experience so much fun!!! He was full of passion and absolutely hilarious when he sang the chocolate song “ooh ooh latte choco latte” while beating his drum! I highly recommend this tour. My teenagers (ages 16 and 18) both agreed it was an excellent learning experience and a fun tour! Oh and the chocolate was simply delicious!! Make sure you take bug spray for the cacao field and wear closed toe shoes!
Good for whole family
Chris_M, June 2023
We really enjoyed our tour. It was the early tour so we were by ourselves but we enjoyed it nonetheless. Our guide made sure everyone in the family was engaged and we loved testing and tasting our sweet combos.
Amazing experience
Ivan_V, June 2023
This tour was a great experience for us! Friendly hosts welcomed us and served us cold water and natural juice. After that, the guide took us through part of the farm, showing us the types of cacao, and what else there is on the farm and why. After that, we saw the fermentation and drying process of cocoa, and at the very end participated in the tasting and production of chocolate. The tour lasts about 2 hours and is worth every penny.
