The guide was very nice, open and well versed in English. We walked to a chocolate shop where the owner was already waiting for us. First there was a short lecture about the family and their chocolate and then the production was explained. 5 different chocolates, various local fruits and the raw cocoa bean were tasted. You could make 3 pralines from the chocolate and fruit. We finished off with a hot chocolate and two Colombian pastries. I really liked it, also because I was alone with the guide :)
