ECUADOR CHOCOLATE EXPEDITION
Group or Private Adventures!
Overview of Ecuador Chocolate Adventures
While we will see Ecuador through a chocolate lens, we will also enjoy its many natural wonders and cultural traditions, including hiking, bird watching and a chocolate tour through Quito.
We offer both small group and custom Chocolate Expeditions to Ecuador, which are filled with culturally immersive experiences in Ecuador to learn about cacao growing and chocolate making from passionate farmers who are committed to preserving Ecuador’s renowned arriba nacional cacao varietal using sustainable agricultural practices, and fine chocolate makers who honor ancient traditions of this vibrant country.
Highlights of our itineraries include a stay in the cloud forest of Mindo, a drive along the waterfall route on the way to the Amazon rainforest, a visit with an indigenous family, delicious meals made with regional ingredients and many other local adventures.
Consider taking a trip to the Galapagos Islands before or after this chocolate expedition!
Small Group Adventure
Our small group adventure is faciltated by Jenny Samaniego of Conexion Chocolate, a renowned chocolate expert and pioneer in the craft chocolate industry, who will lead us in tastings of chocolate throughout our journey and provide additional chocolate education, as we delve into different styles of chocolate from rustic to refined.
