    The chocolate tasting was very educational. We got to the Mayan dance very later and while what I saw was fun and interesting it only lasted less than 5 minutes before we started tasting Tequila.

    I'm sorry to hear that ,but when we arrived there They had already started the Mayan presentation, but thanks to your comment, I'll make sure they look forward to our next groups. In this case there was only 1 person, so I thought we would arrive in time to see the Mayan presentation from the beginning.

    It was an amazing experience to be able to go and make your own chocolate. I really enjoyed tour guide. He actually sat down and ate lunch with us, shared his story and other things about himself. I felt like he was really interested in getting to know us and show us a good time

    Amazing experience

    Adolf was very friendly and informative. At the chocolate making Jafet was very knowledgeable about the chocolate making processes. He showed how it's harvested and cured. He toasted the beans and we were able to grind and mix in sugar and chili. Then molded it and were able to take it home. Adolfo knew the neighborhood well and where to get the best tacos. We had a variety of tacos to choose from. We chose to skip tequila tasting to do some shopping.

    Our group of 22 really enjoyed every part of the tour!! The tour guides at both the Chocolate Factory & the Tequila Factory were very knowledgeable and friendly. The food at the restaurant was really good and came quick. We appreciate both Adolfo our travel agent and Memo our tour guid for such an amazing experience!!!

    You definitely don’t get what you pay for

    Our tour guide was good given the situation his tour company put us in! Did not provide us with much information was basically a ride from one place to another. We had to take a taxi to their meeting point ($20) then they arrived 1 hour late leaving us waiting in heat. There was definitely no air conditioning in the vehicle. We were only able to do lunch and Chocolate making. We went to chocolate factory but we were late to class so had to rearrange and do lunch first- not a problem since we were hot, thirsty and hungry. No clue what part of the tour was supposed to cover Mayan culture. Did not have enough time to do tequila or much of anything else as we made to onboard just under 1 hour to all aboard. No credit or offers of any sort. Have booked many Viator tours and they have all be excellent, but they definitely need to find a new vendor for this. Cruise price and value would have been a much better choice

    Response from Host, Mar 2024

    It is a shame that this situation has happened to you since in all our excursions we are always on time, professional and the previous reviews show it, you had canceled the reservation and I showed you where you had canceled it, and surprisingly you booked again, that was The reason why we did not have your reservation and we did everything possible to get to the meeting point as soon as possible. now we do not provide transportation from the cruise ship dock, the meeting point is at LA MONINA restaurant, all our guests arrive to the restaurant and there we welcome them. You told the guide that you did not want to go to the tequila tasting because you did not drink tequila, the guide explained to you that at the tequila place was the cultural part but you told the guide that you only wanted the chocolate tour and the food and Return to the cruise ship dock and it was done as you requested. We apologize for what happened and hope you enjoyed the rest of your cruise.

    BEST EXCURSION EVER!

    The chocolate factory was an excellent event. It's a lot of work to make chocolate but oh so worth the effort. I loved our guide for the tequila tasting. So much better than other tequila tastings that I have done before. The lunch was fantastic. Nemo was such a help, explaining the menu. This was a most enjoyable excursion and Nemo made it perfect. Thank you Nemo.

    Great time in Cozumel.

    Nancy was great showing us how to make chocolate. Loved the visit to the Mayan structures and the tequila tasting. Our guide, Guillermo was fantastic.

    Worth doing

    Anne_B, Jan 2024
    Enjoyable tour! Adolfo was a great guide, and Nancy at the chocolate place was wonderful too. We learned a fair amount about chocolate and tequila, and the tacos at the end were delicious.

    For sure would recommend!

    Erika_W, Jan 2024
    Guillermo was awesome!!!! Great day of making chocolate and tasting Tequila… And ended it with Tasty tacos and Sopas!

    Fantastic experience

    Erika_D, Jan 2024
    The chocolate factory was amazing. We learned the entire process of making chocolate. Got to taste chocolate from the raw form to the finish and several different flavors. We even got to make our own hot chocolate disc. Then we learn the process of how tequila is grown an processed, finishing with a tasting of 5 levels of tequila. Then it was off to an authentic Mexican meal at "Grandma's House". The taco restaurant was closed for carnival but our guide, Guillermo was quick thinking and filled it in with an amazing lunch.

    Great fun tour.

    RonaldL_S, Dec 2023
    The chocolate event was very informative and a fun interactive event. Had a blast. The Tequila tour was amazing and learned a lot about commercial brands and the absolutely amazing local blue agava regional tequilas you can’t buy around the world. If you want a very smooth sipping tequila this is the place to buy some. Amazing taste and flavors.

    Great experience!

    Really great itinerary and wonderful, personable driver/guide. The tacos at the end were delicious (and there was a vegetarian option!). Highly recommend!

    Nice way to spend a few hours

    Stephanie_P, Dec 2023
    We enjoyed the stops that we made. Had fun learning about and making chocolate, Nancy was an excellent chocolate guide. The tequila stop was neat as well. And couldn’t beat the taco place we stopped at. Each place kind of has its own guide so be ready with tips at each location. It was nice to get away from the typical tourist hot spots and see a few inner spots of Cozumel.

    Adolfo was friendly and...

    Adolfo was friendly and informative. He did a great job. I would say the car AC was not working but not a big deal. The tequila tasting felt like a really artificial experience. I think they built everything there and it wasn’t authentic. The chocolate making made everything worth it. Nancy was so sweet and patient.

    Great All around tasting, testing, and eating tour.

    James_P, Mar 2023
    We really enjoyed the chocolate tasting and chocolate making. The tequila tasting was awesome. Got to experience a lot of different types of tequila. Then we finished off with a true, traditional Mexican lunch at a quaint small, out of the way, family awned restaurant. We would recommend this tour to anyone. Our tour guide was awesome. So were all of the other people assisting with the tour. Jim in Florida

    The young lady that explained everything about how to make chocolate. She was very knowledgeable. Our tour guide was friendly and a very pleasant young man
