Chocolate & Maya Ruin

Spend an unforgettable morning at Ixcacao Chocolate, Belize’s original Maya-owned chocolatier. See cacao growing on the tree and learn about its cultivation. We then head upstairs to enjoy some Maya style hot chocolate and delicious chocolate samples. After these treats, Juan and Abelina guide us through the process of making our own chocolate from bean to bar using heirloom stone tools. During harvest season, sample the ripe cacao fruit itself! After enjoying a wonderful all you can eat farm to table meal prepared by The Chocolate Queen we head to a nearby Maya ruin where your guide will paint a compelling picture of the Maya world prior to European contact. Learn the amazing history of one of the world’s great civilizations and explore the museum and green plazas of this royal complex. Contact Us Now to book.
