Lucy was awesome, explaining the history of chocolate in Mayan culture, then teaching us as we made our own chocolate bar. We started with a yummy refreshing chocolate martini, then ended the 2 1/2 hrs with delicious wine & chocolate pairing! The venue was a beautiful air conditioned building right on Stingray Beach with a gorgeous view! Highly recommend this activity!

A great start to the day!

Judy_V, Apr 2024

What a great activity for our group! There were 5 of us and not only was it a fun event, it was educational and the energy in the room was fantastic. Would definitely recommend you take some time out of your vacation and book a seaside chocolate and wine day! :)

Lots of fun, and I made some delicious chocolate if i say so myself.

Wendy_W, Apr 2024

Lucy and her team made it really fun! Interesting, educational, and a lot of fun. Nice small group. So much more to making chocolate than I ever knew.

This was fantastic!

Jennifer_A, Mar 2023

We learned so much! Wendy was wonderful, taught with clarity and humour. The whole experience was wonderful, start to finish!

Chocolate Making & Wine

Chris_T, Feb 2023

Wendy did a great job presenting. Very educational and enjoyable experience. Staff members were very helpful and made it a memorable experience. Lots of wine and we liked being able to take home the chocolate we made. Easy to get to facility from the cruise port. Staff helped flag down a taxi for our return trip to the port. Based on videos and pictures, I was expecting more out of Stingray Beach itself (reason for 4 rating). It was much smaller and more consolidated areas for water activities. We were told we could visit the grounds during our visit. When we got there we were told we could not walk down near the water.

We’ve been coming to...

We’ve been coming to Cozumel for well over 10 years and always look for new adventures. Wine and chocolate, what can go wrong?? Loved Wendy’s enthusiasm and love for what she’s doing. Great job!!!

Amazing chocolate & wine pairing!

Lots of fun

James_K, Oct 2022

We had a great time, making the chocolate and then doing the chocolate and wine pairing. Lucy and Wendy made the whole experience. A lot of fun. They have a beautiful, air-conditioned location and we truly enjoyed the experience. We highly recommend this activity.

Super fun for the family!

Tom_B, Aug 2022

This is one of the best excursions we have ever done on a cruise. We booked it directly with Viator. Lots of fun and very knowledgeable guides. Both the wine and the chocolates were great. Highly recommended

Well worth the small fee

Jenni_D, Aug 2022

We had an incredible time! We learned so much about chocolate and the history of its making while enjoying good wine paired with delicious chocolate. Wendy was so knowledgeable and entertaining. You will not be disappointed. We loved it AND got to make our own chocolate to take home.

Wendy is wonderful!!!

Kathleen_W, Jul 2022

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop! Wendy has such a beautiful spirit about her and her passion for chocolate is evident. She gave us the perfect mix of the history of chocolate making and significance in the Mayan culture. I would highly recommend this for anyone interested in chocolate and how to pair chocolate with wine.

Chocolate and Wendy are a Terrific Duo!

Susan_S, May 2022

My husband and I had the most delightful time with Wendy learning all about chocolate! She was so personable and engaging and really knows her topic. My husband had been unsure about taking the class, but left raving about how wonderful Wendy and the class was. Thanks!

Great birthday morning!

Dawn_S, Apr 2022

Wendy was so much fun to learn from! The workshop, chocolate making and wine pairing was just what we needed to kick off our birthday celebration day! Wendy was incredibly knowledgeable on all topics. We will be back.

Tour guide Wendy was very informative and a pleasure to listen to. It was fun making the cocoa from the nut to paste.

Very well presented,...

Robert_M, Jan 2022

Very well presented, great venue, interesting and lots of fun. Plenty of chocolate and wine makes for a very good day.

Great private interaction!!

DetailsMatter, Aug 2021

Fairly small group (7 total) that made it very personal & intimate of a tour. We learned a lot of the history of cocoa & the process used, etc. loved their photographer who took great angeled shots & professional looks throughout the whole process. Their flavors were amazing & the vanilla honey was something I could not leave without!!

Great experience

frania_s, Jul 2021

If you are a chocolate lover you will love learning about the chocolate history and tasting the most delicious and unique chocolate. You also get to do your own chocolate to make hot cocoa.

Great tour worth your time

Sharon_F, Mar 2021

The most memorable experience would be the instructor was knowledgeable about the hist8 of the chocolate

No experience

Justin_M, Oct 2020

Upon arrival we found the place completely deserted. Fortunately we were able to find someone who worked for stingray beach and they were able to refund cash on site. Be aware during this time a lot of these excursions on Viator are not truly active.

Nice.

Daniel_J, Oct 2019

Educational, relaxing and enjoyable. Lucy and Eva were knowledgeable and friendly, we enjoyed our excursion.
