I was fortunate to have found this tour. Moises was my tour guide and Marlon- my driver. Every stop on the itinerary was fascinating, educational and fun. Loved the chocolate factory tour where I observed how the coco beans were roasted, then mixed with other ingredients and finally- made into delicious products. I bought lots of chocolate from their store to enjoy at home and with my family and friends- it is excellent. The next stop was in a lovely town where we saw how the local women did laundry on the main square, and thanks to Moises I also paid a visit to a small family-owned jade factory and store. Moises and Marlon treated me to a mid-morning snack of the famous local chicharrone-delicious! The visit to the macadamia nut farm was a lot of fun (do not miss to stop at the "World's Most Beautiful bathroom" there), I learned a lot about macadamias and also got a lovely face massage. Next on the itinerary was a traditional Mayan town to observe the Mayan ladies weaving, and finally- a coffee plantation and a traditional life and music museum. I didn't feel rushed, Moises was patient and waited for me to complete my purchases at all destinations. Thank you, Moises and Marlon, this was a trip to remember!
