The views were beautiful on the farm tour. It was really interesting to learn how chocolate is made in a dessert and to taste the difference of cacao grown in the rainforest. Sean was very personable and made the tour lots of fun.

Highly recommend… best part… all profit goes to local charities. I love when paying for tours… it helps local communities. After arriving at their chocolate shop, we were taken to the tree farm where you see first hand the trees, the seeds… you learn all the steps of how chocolate comes to be! It was amazing! The best part…. Walking up into a treehouse and getting to sample all kinds of their chocolate!!

Learning about how Ku’ia is solar powered, who founded and where the cacao trees are from. Why specific trees were chosen and how the cacao is processed to dark chocolates during the tasting experience.

We had a terrific tour and tasting at the cacao farm. In fact, we recommended it to another family this morning on our snorkel tour. A fantastic experience and the chocolate was delicious!

Caleb was a wonderful tour guide. He definitely explained the process of growing the beans to making chocolate. He also told us the history of how the beans made it to the island. The chocolate tasting was fun. Caleb also took pictures of us with the ocean behind us. Fantastic tour.

It is a wonderful experience to learn about cacao and chocolate. Delicious chocolate. My son (13) and I both enjoyed it.

Great story and an awesome guide. Truly “off the grid” factory with 100% solar operations. On top of it, 100% of tour proceeds go to local charities.
