The activity was great! The family who owns the finca was very hospitable (in addition to being very eco conscious with running an organic operation)and we were able to try different types of cacao along with other fruits and smell different herbs. We were served delicious chocolate, like hot chocolate and nibs. We were also provided a small bowl of fruit as a snack and a bottle water after walking around the finca. Also, the tour was done in clear Spanish—great if you’re learning Spanish.
