Highlights
- Mayan Monkey Mijas - You will visit our chocolate factory. Firstly, there is chocolate tasting. Then we explain the process and how chocolate is made, and we demonstrate how we make a bar of chocolate. There is a choice of 50 different ingredients - you tell us what ingredients you’d like and we customise them and take them home. We also explain how we make the ice creams from scratch - we roast the pistachios in the factory and stone grind them in an old mill into a nut butter - and you get to taste our ice creams too. Note this visit is really aimed at adults - it is not one of our hands-on chocolate making experiences which are available on our website.

Become a famous chocolatier - This is outside Malaga so plan a drive. I wanted to cancel but my daughter was so excited, we did not and I’m glad we didn’t. The museum experience was enlightening and I learned a lot about the history of chocolate, one of the 5 food groups. (JK). Making the chocolate and combining flavors was interesting. We have some new favorites beyond the usual now! And it was a great if short lasting souvenir.

A Tasy Experience - The five of us made three bars of chocolate each with a variety of toppings under supervision. We all had a great time and most importantly the chocolate was tasty.

A good bit of fun - Great fun and a good hands on experience. Got to select the products and flavours when making your own chocolate. The chap giving us the instructions and guiding us was brilliant very knowledgable and friendly. Good time for the whole family.

Best ice cream and chocolate in town hands down - Best chocolate snd ice cream in town
The family had ice cream here almost daily and also tried the chocolate workshop to create 3 bars of chocolate each
The prices for the workshop is very good compared to the experience and the quality of the chocolate
We have nothing bad to say about this place

Good - better - Mayan Monkey - Great experience with interesting insights. The factory not only offers homemade ice cream and chocolate, the workshop is also highly recommended. There is a wide selection of chocolate varieties and toppings available, allowing you to put together your own favorite chocolate. It must be taken into account that after the chocolate has been made, an additional half to a full hour must be added for the chocolate to cool and be packaged. The town of Mijas, where the factory is located, offers a great view and insight into the culture of Malaga.

Excellent Experience! - Absolutely loved our experience at Mayan Monkey Mijas! We took the Masterclass with Sam, who was simply fabulous! We had such a great time making chocolate and we learned so much! Everyone was so kind and accommodating, especially as we had some trouble with our transportation and ended up arriving a few minutes late. The chocolate is phenomenal! The whole thing was worth every penny! <3

MAKING OUR OWN CHOCOLATE IN THE SCENIC PUBELO AREA - The kids loved making their own chocolate, all in 12 big bars of chocolate for the x4 of us (80 euro) but worth the experience. walking through the small door at the end singing the 'Oompa Loompa Song'
