Superb - Excellent guide (Yuri) with lots of passion and knowledge on coffee and cacao. Tour was much longer than expected. We were 5 + Mexican couple, all very funny group. Our expectations were met and we learned about the history and the production of cacti and coffee and were able to taste and make our own chocolate and coffee. Additional we were lucky and saw the sloths living on the farm.
10/10 can recommend

Completely successful! - There were only four of us and had no tour booked in advance. Nevertheless, we were warmly welcomed and could participate spontaneously. Our guide Nelson did the chocolate tour just for us and made the almost two hours very entertaining and interesting. Our Unpacked were the creation and tasting of the chocolate and the “God’s Drink” as well as the information on the cultivation and history of chocolate. In addition, the facility is beautifully landscaped and Nelson showed us a sloth living in the tree.
Completely successful!

Tasty Tour - The Chocolate Tour was interesting, fun, and tasty! Nelson was our guide and he shared a plethora of knowledge. He was passionate about his craft and encouraged participation from our family in the chocolate making process. From breaking the shell of the cacao, to grinding the beans, to tasting the chocolate - we all felt a part of the delicious process.

Exciting and tasty chocolate adventure in a nice spot near La Fortuna - The chocoloate tour was very nice and the four of us in our family enjoyed it a lot! It was a good mix about chocolate's history and actually preparing the chocolate until ready to eat/drink. Our guide Nelson is very passionate and did an excellent job!

The best chocolate tour in Fortune - Nelson, our Guide, has made us a very entertaining and cultural tour. We have enjoyed touring the cocoa plantation, listening to historical data and tasting cocoa made by ourselves. An unforgettable experience that we will remember all our lives.

Recommended tour! - There were only two of us and yet our guide Nelson gave us great information and interesting stories about the cultivation of the cocoa bean and the emergence of the chocolate culture.
Afterwards we were allowed to make chocolates ourselves and drink a delicious, spicy cocoa.
A great tour with fun entertainment, highly recommended.

Tour de chololate - The price of the tour let and only considered, but we still decided on it and were not disappointed . Great tour, from the blossom to the chocolate, to the homemade coffee everything was explained and could be made itself in a very nice way. The tour is worth its price and was designed by César and yari to be extremely likeable and funny.

Best experience - We booked the Eden chocolate tour and were simply thrilled, we got a private tour. Our guide was super friendly, the best chocolate teacher you could wish for and she even showed us two sloths.
We were allowed to make our own chocolates and taste a lot.
The tour is highly recommended and probably the best in la fortuna.
Thank you very much for the wonderful experience and everything we learned.
