We landed in cusco early in the morning. We did this tour in the afternoon. The place is just at the 12 angled stone in hatunrumiyoc. We had fun! You learn together on a big long table. We met different people from other areas of the globe, while learning, chit chatting, make chocolate! We brought home what we made. So delicious!

We decided to visit the ChocoMuseo and were pleasantly surprised by the kindness and attention of all the workers. We were encouraged to participate in a chocolate-making workshop, which turned out to be a very entertaining activity and perfect as a team building activity.
After learning the process, we were able to take home the chocolate we made ourselves - a truly rewarding experience! We learned a lot during the workshop and we are very grateful to the entire ChocoMuseo team for their hospitality and shared knowledge.
Plus, the chocolate at the museum is delicious, and it's great to know that they offer a discount if you decide to do the workshop. I completely recommend this experience to anyone who visits, you won't regret it!
Thanks again for a memorable experience - especially Yil!

We had arrived the day before to Cusco and needed some time to acclimate. Walking around the city and joining the chocolate class was perfect! We learned about the local beans and different qualities of them. We roasted, shelled, pulverized and turned the beans into chocolate! A fun class! Book ahead of time. Our friends did not get in because they waited too long.

It was fun but too long and the fellow who led the group was too chatty with a gal in the group and also trying to make it more fun by singing while stirring - just a bit corny. We had to stand the whole 2 hours which was also hard at the end of a day.

Such a great experience overall. I went with my brother and sister all in our 30s. The host was knowledgeable and funny throughout. We gained so much from the experience, not to mention the great chocolate we enjoyed and made to take back home to the states with us. High value experience for sure.

We had an excellent experience learning how chocolate is made staring from the bean. Luis was an excellent instructor and kept everyone engaged. The chocolate was delicious. We would highly recommend.

We were looking so forward to this class but ended up being let down. The instructor wasn't very nice. He was very rude to my daughter and several others in the group. We had chocolate left over and he would not allow anyone to use an extra mold to finish out the chocolate. There was very little "hands on" and most of the class was listening to him talk about chocolate. The end result wasn't very tasty and not edible.

Good content and setting. I am sorry I did not have the option to make my personal candies using white chocolate. The dark chocolate oxidized very quickly and was too unappealing to offer to our friends once we returned home.
