A fun and interesting day with Luis, our guide. The chocolate tour was educational and interactive, a really fun experience. Baldi hot springs is enjoyable and relaxing, especially on an uncrowded day. A delicious, buffet lunch of local foods was provided. The drive to/from can be long due to traffic conditions, but Luis made every minute interesting and enjoyable.

Making our own chocolate from the beginning of the bean. Really fantastic! The guy who guided the tour is really funny and explains everything very well. And he started with a quiz. Tasting chocolate as much as you want at the end with all kinds of combinations in flavors.
