  • 5Fun and tasting

    This was such a fun and educational experience! I absolutely loved how our guide walked us through each step of the chocolate making process. It was so interesting getting to see how chocolate is made from start to finish, and even better that we got to taste the different phases along the way! I also loved how interactive the experience was. Our little dances and chants had us laughing, smiling, and fully enjoying the moment. It made the experience feel so much more personal and memorable. But most importantly, I LOVED getting to craft my OWN chocolate bar! There was something so special about being able to make it myself and take part in the entire process. Overall, this was such a unique experience, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something fun, interactive, and educational! Thank you for singing me happy birthday and bringing out a delicious sweet treat afterwards! It felt so special!

  • 5This was such a fun...

    This was such a fun experience and definitely one of the highlights of our time in Antigua! My wife and I took the class together, and we both had a great time. Our instructor, Josalina (I hope I’m spelling her name correctly!), was wonderful. She was friendly, engaging, and very knowledgeable. The class was not only hands-on and entertaining, but also surprisingly informative. We learned about the different types of chocolate, how cacao is processed, and the steps involved in turning cacao into the chocolate we are familiar with. The best part was getting to make our own chocolate bars and chocolate drinks. It made the class feel much more interactive than simply watching a demonstration, and we got to enjoy what we made afterward. Although we attended as a couple, there were also families in our class with younger children, and the kids seemed to be having a fantastic time. It really felt like an activity that could be enjoyed by couples, families, or anyone who loves chocolate and wants to learn more about how it is made. It was a great combination of learning, hands-on activities, and just having fun. I would definitely recommend this class while visiting Antigua, and I would happily do it again!

  • 4Overall a fun experience....

    Overall a fun experience. You get to make your own chocolate bar which is worth 1/4 th of the overall price you pay. Get to taste shots of tea, hot chocolate, etc.

About Antigua

Antigua Guatemala is a colonial city of cobbled streets, ruined churches and pastel façades, ringed by three volcanoes in the Guatemalan highlands.

Antigua was the capital of Spanish Guatemala until earthquakes in 1773 led to the move of the government to the present capital. The grid of cobbled streets and low colonial houses survived, together with the ruins of grand churches and convents, and the town is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The yellow Santa Catalina Arch, with its clock tower, frames Volcán de Agua at the end of a street.

Top-ranked sights in Antigua: Antigua Central Park (Parque Central), Cerro de la Cruz (Hill of the Cross), La Merced Church (Iglesia de la Merced).
