Activity itinerary

Starts at El Quetzal de Mindo in Mindo, Ecuador  Trek back in time about 5,600 years where cocoa originated in the Amazon basin of Ecuador. While Ecuadorian drummers play local music. Participants are invited to pick up an instrument and play, if they like.  We will all pitch in and roast cocoa beans over a wood fire, hand shell the cocoa beans and hand grind the warm beans with a stone grinder. We add spices and flavourings that were used 3,000 years ago to flavour our drink. You will get a chance to mix the drink until frothy and serve the drink to the participants to enjoy an authentic chocolate. After we drink our drink we are invited to hang out, dance, sing and enjoy. Food and drinks are available for purchase.  Free parking available
