Chocolate and Margaritas. What could go wrong? - Absolutley nothing! A fun, interesting tour and workshop. Long enough to keep attention but not too long to get bored. Learned a lot; the guide was funny and knowledgeable. They also have 4 rescue macaw birds. A great wat to spend a couple of hours.

A Unique Blend of Culture and Flavor - If you're visiting Cozumel and want something beyond the usual beach day, The Mayan Cacao Company's Chocolate & Margarita Workshop is a cultural gem with a fun twist. It was one of the most memorable parts of our trip! The hands-on portion was a highlight- grinding cacao and tasting the results gave us a new appreciation for the process. Afterwards, we transitioned to a more festive atmosphere with a margarita- making session. The setting was beautiful and well organized. Roberto was wonderful! Whether you're a foodie, history buff, or just looking for a memorable activity, this excursion is a must-do.

If you love chocolate, the place to learn and create your own. - Sooo interesting learning about the Mayan culture, creating and mixing the ingredients for your own chocolate, an excellent experience to share with or just solo. Angel was very professional, answer different questions, knowledgeable. The "lab" area is very interesting and nice setup. Thank you, highly recommended!

Our tour was extraordinary!!! - Roberto was very informative and made the tour and class enjoyable. It's probably best to book this one through Trip Advisor so you have a more private tour experience. The cruise ship tour tend to rush through the experience a bit more.
