Enjoying a memorable chocolate-making experience at the hacienda, we learned the fascinating process from cacao bean to fresh chocolate bars, which we were delighted to take home. Our guide, Nymph, who is also a part-owner, exuded passion for her cherished land, enhancing our tour experience. In addition, we had the pleasure of preparing traditional Ecuadorian Ceviche with farm-fresh ingredients—including shrimp—and savored it for lunch. Traveling independently from Guayaquil to the hacienda proved to be effortless. This excursion, booked through Tratoli, is one we highly recommend for an authentic and engaging culinary adventure.

Embarking on an unforgettable journey booked through Tratoli, I wholeheartedly endorse this must-experience travel activity. The excursion shines as the crowning jewel of our trip, making it an exceptional choice not just for everyone, but especially for LGBTQ+ travelers seeking a welcoming adventure. Despite a minor timetable tweak, as noted by a previous visitor, our departure was slated for the bright and early 8:45 am—a heads-up duly given through a proactive WhatsApp message, ensuring we were well-informed. The thorough communication by BM Tours, enquiring about our dietary preferences beforehand, set the tone for the day. Seamlessly picked up from our accommodation, we began our day with ease. Throughout this tour, Jaime, our extraordinary guide, impressed us with his extensive knowledge of the local wildlife. Gliding through tranquil waters on a motorized canoe ride, we marveled at the variety of birds and observed a crocodile at a reassuring distance. A trek through the habitat brought us face to face with the majestic howler monkeys, while our visit to the Cacao y Mango farm rounded out the ecological exploration with an immersive chocolate making experience, complete with a gift shop to procure souvenirs for loved ones. The culinary highlight was a scrumptious lunch featuring ceviche, chicken with rice, and a delightful dessert, considerately accommodating various dietary needs. Observing a family with two young girls enjoying the experience as much as we did reaffirmed the trip's universal appeal. In conclusion, for those contemplating this adventure, my advice is to seize the moment and book this enriching and enjoyable tour without hesitation!
