5A Must Do
Our instructor Martin was so knowledgeable, engaging and made the experience speciaL. Great activity for children and adults. The history of chocolate was vast and the flavor of the fresh, local beans is an experience I hope everyone can have.
5Best chocolate making experience
A mesmerizing chocolate making experience with a funny and knowledgeable teacher. Martin kept us leaning and enjoying at the same time! We did the fun part first making our chocolate in molds which keeps everyone’s attention! Best for kids 6 and up in my opinion but plenty of hands on fun if your younger kids love to use their hands.

About Puerto Vallarta
Cobbled streets, a seaside boardwalk and jungle-clad mountains give Puerto Vallarta, on Mexico's Banderas Bay, its easy Pacific charm.
The Malecón, a long seafront boardwalk lined with bronze sculptures, links the old town with restaurants, bars and galleries, and the parish church of Guadalupe crowns the centre with its distinctive crown-topped tower. The Romantic Zone, south of the Cuale River, has cobbled lanes, Los Muertos Beach and its pier, and a lively evening scene.
