Description
After hotel pickup, we will head to Lopinot, known for its unique blend of French and Trinidadian influences. Our first stop will be the Count of Lopinot's prison, where we will learn about its history and explore the cocoa plantations. Here, we will experience a special dance for cocoa and enjoy the sounds of parang music.
Next is the chocolate factory, where one of the purest cocoa chocolates on the island is made. We'll observe the production process and appreciate its artisanal shapes, followed by a chocolate tasting.
We will then visit Sr. Cyril Cooper's farm, home to a significant cocoa and coffee plantation featuring the longest-living tree of Lopinot, over 100 years old.
Finally, we'll explore the heart-shaped Martin Gomez cave, observing its inhabitants including bats, birds and insects , along with local legends about apparitions.
We will conclude with a return to your hotel in Port of Spain after a total of 6 hours.
