If you are looking to learn more about the history of chocolate, to sample authentic Guatemalan chocolate recipes or to support a local business that trains and employs women in Xela, then this is the tour for you! The owners and employees of the business were some of the most hospitable people we have met in Guate, going above and beyond to accomodate our schedule and inability to read a map. The tour itself was very informative and the chocolate samples were both abundant and delicious. I highly recommended supporting this local establishment while in Xela!
