Cacao Trail Tour & Lubaantun
The Cacao Trail takes you into Toledo’s heartland, with its lush green interior blanketing the foothills of the Maya Mountains, and the traditional villages nestled throughout Toledo’s chocolate country! In this eco tour, you will visit the organic cacao orchards, where cacao
is grown under the shade of indigenous trees, and alongside other crops, including pineapple, coffee, papaya, avocado and allspice. You
will learn how the pods grow and are harvested, and the fermentation process which results in the beans that are the foundation of the famous Maya Gold organic chocolate—itself inspired by a local Mayan chocolate “kukuh” drink! You will enjoy the Mayan Lunch, all organic. You will also be a part when it’s time to show you how to make basic chocolate.
