EXCELLENT Tour saw and did so much!!!! Highly recommend - WOW this was a great tour and well worth the price! Highly recommend. They picked us up from our cruise terminal and then drove into the jungle where we saw the chocolate museum/plantation. Got a chance to see the fruit growing and even try the raw cocoa pod fruit (delicious!). We saw the entire process of how chocolate is made and got to eat it at each stage. We then went to a banana plantation and saw how bananas are harvested (and we got to try both commercial and local small bananas which are delicious!). Then the tour of the Canal in a boat (no kayaking or paddling necessary), where the guide pointed out several sloths, monkeys, birds, lizards, and more. An unforgettable day and a great tour!!!!
