Additional Information

The experience begins with learning to cook a meal the Mayan way on a fire hearth. You will learn how to make tortillas and tamales from scratch in a real Mayan kitchen. Take advantage of the experience to ask lots of questions about how the Mayans live, work, raise their families while you are preparing your lunch. The Maya are a proud of their culture and happy to share their stories. Bring your cell phone or camera and take video so you can share your new culinary skills with friends and family when you get home. Make sure you get the recipes!

After enjoying the lunch that you have just cooked, visit the cacao farm to see how the cacao is grown, harvested and dried. Then head over to the little chocolate factory to make chocolate from cacao beans the old fashioned way. Make and eat your very own chocolate bar.
