Day Trip to a Cocoa Farm

Between 8 and 8:40 am, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Ilhéus to start the Chocolate Route. We will travel by minibus along the road that connects the cocoa-producing farms to this town.

As we travel through the Atlantic Forest, known for its cocoa plantations, we'll explore the fame of this crop in the region. The chocolate produced here has received awards in Europe, and some companies have been operating for more than 250 years.

We'll stop at a hacienda to observe daily activities among the cocoa trees and learn about cultivation and harvesting. Additionally, we'll discover other products made from cocoa beyond chocolate bars.

We will also taste homemade chocolate produced on the farm. Souvenirs and sweets will be available for purchase.

We will conclude the tour with drop-off at your hotel by 1 pm.
