Chocolate, a fantastic and different experience. - I wasn’t sure what to expect and it was fantastic. Pamela, my guide, she was so friendly and caring and the man who provided the explanations and food samplings along with a welcome drink and 2 sampling glasses of wine. They are able to provide if you don’t drink alcohol or if you have food allergies/sensitivities, I am sorry, I don’t recall the name of the man who provided the information, but, he was very knowledgeable and kind. Everything we had had something to do with chocolate. Whether it was the cacao oil, powder, solid chocolate…. It was something I would not have thought to do but am so glad I did it.

Fantastic experience - This tour was a fantastic experience. What a great way to get an authentic sense of the city and try delicious local food. After years in Quito, I discovered new spots I’d never been to. Can’t wait to bring friends who come to visit.

Tasting chocolate in very different ways - Incredible! - If you are a chocolate lover, this experience is for you. It is incredible to taste chocolate in such different ways and everything explained by the chef and his assistants. Ernesto was an incredible guide and companion, offering many details as well. Everything I tried was delicious and I recommend it 100%. Do not miss it!

The place is very cozy and the people were very friendly.
