Not to be Missed - Fantastic! Making your own chocolate is amazing. If traveling from Castries, you take 2 minibus, and it will take 2 hrs.

Unique experience in the Caribbean! - We had a fun a unique experience! From walking in a coco tree “forest” to making a chocolate bar in the Caribbean is just a unique thing to do. The tour guide shared so much about the coco grafting and growing and chocolate making process! The chocolate making guide was fun and funny and stirred the energy of the group so well. They gave us lunch and was so good. Loved it! We had fun.

Chocolate making adventure - My husband, two Sons and I had a lovely time at Hotel Chocolat learning about how to make chocolate. Our tour guide was very informative as he walked us through the rainforest. We got to taste chocolate tea. The boys loved making chocolate. Afterwards we had a nice lunch. Overall it was a very fun experience.

Fantastic tour from start... - Fantastic tour from start to finish. Our family of 5 enjoyed the tour of the farm and the chocolate making was a fun way to end it. Our tour guide Nathan was great as was John when it came time to make the chocolate. Highly recommend this tour!

The best experience ever - There's not enough words to describe how wonderful this experience was! From the arrival, through each step of the tour we were looked after with water bottles being given out before heading to plantation to cool, peppermint towels being given after to cool off and the delicious, cold coca brew in the bar. Our guide Nathan was amazing, so knowledgeable, with great sens of humor, making the tour really fun for my daughter. The chocolate bar making workshop was truly awesome as well, how amazing ia to make your own bar from scratch and learn the steps and the ingredients involved. Then there was lunch.... where do I begin with my praises!? The best chicken roti I've had so far on the island, coca bbq chicken wings were just melting in your mouth and the sides of plantain chips and coc macaroni were simply out of this world. To top it of we also had a delicious dessert included too! Nothing but smiles and happy memories from us. I can not fault this tour at all. Highly recommend! I will be back :) thank you Hotel Chocolate

Vastly over rated - This is just a vastly over rated tourist trap. We stopped for lunch but also expected to be able to buy a good range of chocolates made by Hotel Chocolat. So disappointing. The food was overpriced and barely warm although the service from the waiting staff was very good. The range of chocolates was non-existent. Not even 1/20th of what you see in the shops in the UK. If you want a 5* chocolate shop, go to Cocoa Sainte Lucia north of Soufrierre. Don't waste your money here.
