Full-Day Tour: Cocoa farm experience in the jungle of Cusco

I contacted David Mora to figure out activities while i and my family visited Peru. I sent David an email and immediately received response that David was out of the office leading a tour and would get back to me when he returned. He responded that very evening and his English was great. His response was thorough and he put together a tentative itinerary of activities for the family, regardless of whether we would use Coclatours. He provided train schedules and ticketing information. We eventually settled on a date for the cocoa farm tour. I ended up having to change the date of the tour. David was nice as could be in rescheduling our tour. Then I came down with a bad flu while in Peru, which I spread to the rest of the family, and had to cancel the cocoa tour altogether. Again, David was incredibly understanding and even wanted to drive to our hotel to return our $100 down payment! David had helped so much in planning our entire time in Peru that I had him keep the down payment. He earned it! I have friends traveling to Peru and will definitely recommend the tour with David Mora!

I can only recommend this tour. Did the coffee and the cacao tour. David is a amazing guide and the familys are lovely.

I had a wonderful experience during these excursions in the wild farms of La Convencion. This was truly an exceptional and memorable trip, every family has a story to tell. For example, I got the opportunity to get to know some of the dark and unspoken history of Peru during the slavery period ending in 1967 and the revolution, all this told by Hilario Perez who was a young slave at the time (he is now featured in a book which he will show you with pride). I also learned and experienced how certain fruits grow, how my coffee and chocolate are made; btw I am never buying Nescafe again! This is what differences this type of experience with all the other traditional tours you can find in Peru. You won't get the opportunity to meet and share a day with a local farming family, and when you speak to them you don't have the feeling that they are spitting a script at you like most of the other excursions I went to this month. So I would like to thank David the head of this organization and guide that made those trips possible, I would also like to thank all the farmers: Hilario, Hubert, José, Julia, Hebert and Carlos who had the patience and joy to share their knowledge. I totally recommend this experience !!
