Fun class with beautiful views - Fun class with friends. We learned some of the history of chocolate in the Cusco region and why it's unique. As we were making a couple dozen delicious chocolates to bring home we were able to enjoy a beautiful sunset over the city.

Do it! - We had a great time with David, our teacher! He’s got a great sense of humor. It was a great group of people. The view over Cusco was amazing! Even the walk there was beautiful. We would 10/10 recommend this class!

So Much Fun Making Your Own Chocolate - What a FUN evening! Interactive, learning so much about one of the main products from Peru in a lively atmosphere full of smiles and laughter. And we walked away with our own boxes of chocolate treats, handmade by US! They were soooo good. Highly recommend as a perfect balance to your normal tours. And huge bonus, the location is up on top of a hillside (climbing up so many stairs wasn't too fun, but it was worth it), the balcony of this restaurant has a full view of Cusco at night that cannot be beat! So bring your camera, and be ready to have a relaxing fun rewarding experience. I did this with my husband and we almost bailed on it because we were both really tired. But we decided to push through it, and then entire walk back to the hotel, we both said "can you believe we almost missed that experience??" Don't miss it.

A fun & memorable workshop! - This chocolate workshop was a blast!! We can’t stay enough good about David - his communication skills and positive personality made the evening so memorable! He taught us each step in the whole chocolate process perfectly. Damaso - the assistant was also very helpful and fun! The evening view from the place was beautiful! Our chocolates turned out great! I would definitely recommend this workshop! Thanks for a great & memorable evening!

Fun activity - David was a good chocolate host. It was a fun activity and a little change from visiting many historical sites . The only thing to watch is that there are many steps to get to the venue inside and outside .

Great teacher - David was the best teacher! A very fun experience. I even want to try it at home. We left with a nice box with all our goodies at the end of the lesson.

Nothing you can't duplicate at home with ease - Outside of the view overlooking Cusco, this experience isn’t very special and can be easily replicable at home. The host was very energetic and positive but missed the mark with his communication and quality of instruction. He was off-track with his commentary, repeating the same joke at least a half dozen times as well as promoting the company’s pub crawl another four times. He also didn’t remember any of the five participants’ names even though we all remembered each other’s names. As for the actual chocolate making workshop, I was looking forward to doing something challenging and fun that I hadn’t done before and would not be easy to do on my own but the way the class is structured, you can easily do this at home because of the very simplistic chocolates that you make. On account of these issues, I cannot recommend this experience.
