      Had a really great trip. Yamil was on time and was an excellent tour guide. Trip to the nature reserve was very interesting and relaxing. The local guide was very knowledgable and I really enjoyed getting out of the city. We went on to the cocoa farm. Very interesting and good explanations of how chocolate is made. Finished off the tour with a delirious lunch. I would recommend this tour.

      We started with a walk through the forest. We saw interesting plants and animals, including sloth and monkeys. After lunch we toured the chocolate plantation and participated in making some chocolate. It was more fun and interesting than we expected. A very nice way to spend a day.

      Excellent experience - five stars all around. On-time pick up, knowledgeable guides, friendly service, and good recommendations. We loved the visit to the plantation where we got to see so many different types of plants, fruits, and vegetables. We helped cook lunch and the best part was the fresh chocolate. We made our own chocolate bar by hand!

      Poder estar en contacto con la naturaleza fue increíble, conocer el proceso para la obtención del chocolate , desde su plantación, cuidado, y demás procedimiento para obtener el mejor chocolate , me pude dar cuenta del proceso tan complejo que es , valorando el esfuerzo y talento maravilloso que tienen , nuestros guías siempre dispuesto a despejar cualquier duda que tengamos y lo mejor participar de la elaboración del chocolate, el mejor del mundo por ser natural, sin aditivos o preservantes. Y entender que no es una golosina sino un fruto con muchas propiedades. ....MILLON GRACIAS ... VOLVERE NUEVAMENTE .

      Yamil, de Viasam Tours fue un excelente guía, nos compartió de su amplio conocimiento acerca del cacao y la producción del chocolate - de manera divertida y deliciosa (probar ese chocolate recién hecho, el jugo de cacao, etc fue un regalo al paladar!). Recomiendo ampliamente este tour si quieres aprender del proceso de chocolate (ruta del cacao), si quieres deleitar las papilas gustativas y quieres tomar buenas fotos de la Ciudad y la finca donde está la planta de cacao. Desde la flor que se convierte en planta, a las semillas que dan origen al chocolate, disfrutarás y aprenderás al mismo tiempo. Fuimos después de un crucero a Galápagos, y aunque estábamos cansados, decidimos tomar el tour - excelente manera de terminar un viaje de en sueño! Después el tour te lleva a la Ciudad y te muestra los lugares más cheveres para comer y tomar fotos. El tour es entonces calmado porque no se camina mucho, pero se aprende bastante. Y la sorpresa de probar el jugo de cacao es impresionante - algo delicioso en verdad!
