Best experience. 100% recommend. Maria was great!
Juliet is amazing! She is very patient and very good at English, we learnt a lot of knowledge about chocolate and rum! Wonderful experience!
This was so fun! We learned a lot about Columbia, rum and chocolate, as well as making chocolate. The whole event went by so quickly because we were learning things all the time and having fun thank you so much!
Mafe is a great host she made us feel welcome and at home, felt like a family outing with her!
10/10 would do again the host Mafe was very fun and educational.
My friend and I had a great time at Colombian Cacao Experience. Dion, the owner, and our guide Juliette made it feel personal and fun. The owners are warm and actively involved, and that makes a real difference. We made our own chocolate bars and tried a cacao scrub on our faces and hands—plenty of laughs along the way! It’s a hands-on experience in a welcoming space, with chocolate you’ve made yourself to take home. The experience is about 3 hours. And very reasonable admission fees. Small crowd Definitely recommend it if you want something fun and different to do in Medellín. Dion made this the best experience of Medellin
Beautiful experience. knowledgeable. Rum tasting was perfect.
Beautiful home of chocolate in the heart of Medellin. Dion and Karen make you very welcome and their knowledge of chocolate really enhances the whole experience. Come for the chocolate and rum but don’t miss the chocolate exfoliator, your hands will never be the same!
Amazing Rum and Chocolate tour A fest for the eyes and tounge. Dion and Karen were wonderful hosts with a great knowledge for Chocolate. Highly recommend. 5 star tour.
We absolutely loved the Colombian Cacao Experience. This is one of those tours that feels genuinely different from the usual tourist experiences, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our time in Medellín. Dion was an incredible guide, warm, engaging, knowledgeable and clearly passionate about cacao and everything that goes into producing chocolate. The whole experience was incredibly informative without ever feeling like a lesson. We learned a huge amount, had plenty of laughs along the way, and came away with a completely different appreciation for Colombian cacao and chocolate. The surroundings are absolutely beautiful as well, which makes the whole experience even more special. It feels authentic, personal and wonderfully removed from the standard city tour. If you’re visiting Medellín and looking for something genuinely unique, I couldn’t recommend this highly enough. Five stars without hesitation, and absolutely something we’ll be returning to when we’re back in Colombia.
The rum and chocolate tour was exceptional! Dion and Karen were wonderful host, the space was so cozy and cute. Absolutely recommend the tour.

Wonderful experience and so much fun!!
Fantastic , highly recommend.
This experience was very relaxed and educational. Our guide Mariana was very lovely and able to go between English and Spanish with ease. This is highly recommended to participate in. You learn so much about the Colombian culture and history with hands-on activities.
Everything about this experience was above and beyond my expectations! They made us a custom combo tour because not everyone in our group drinks rum. So we were able to get a great combination of the rum tour and the chocolate experience. Every detail of the experience was thought through with various tastings, stories, music, and decor that created a truly memorable and fun experience. Well worth the money! Highly recommend - contact them directly via WhatsApp for customization!!
The chocolate was delicious, the rum was excellent and a great pairing for the chocolate. The guide was very enthusiastic, the explanations were great. Overall, a very fun activity!

the best interactive experience i’ve done! from start to finish, everything was informative, interactive and most of all fun. i loved every aspect of this experience, and i wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone and everyone who’s in medellin.
This is a must do tour in Medellin! Loved it. Caroline makes you feel at home and knows her chocolate stuff very well. We enjoyed this tour very much. Definitely a must do!!
Excellent! Very knowledgable of the complexities of rhum. Would do it again. Nice young couple starting up recently.
Great experience! Compliments for the organization and communication. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Medellin, a real ‘must do’
We had a lot of fun doing the rum tasting. Its an interactive activity with nice know about a and lots of information! They’ve got a great cacao Experience as well!
So fun! Rum experience was perfect way to spend a night in Medellin. Right in the middle of Laureles too so easy to explore other parts of the city from there
I really enjoyed the history and the pairings. So strategic in how my taste buds would react to all of the alcohol. Really great space and vibes. I do encourage you to eat a snack before as it's a lot of sugar and alcohol. Dion was also a great guide and fun!
Dion is an amazing host! He was very informative, friendly, and knowledgeable about all the rum and chocolate. He set a great atmosphere and had great conversations. The rum was delicious, paired with many different combinations of chocolate/toppings. I would recommend to anyone looking for a great tasting.
