Full Description:

Our adventure will begin upon arrival at our Sanctuary where one of our shamans will bless you to enter the jungle where the stingless and harmless Melipona Bee is found. We remind you that this blessing is to be able to thank the ancient spirits of Cocoa and Honey for improving our experience. It is a historical place, the ancient Mayans used it as a place of rest and purification before reaching the sacred site of the great pyramid of Coba and there is a part of the path they used to go to Chichén Itzá called Sac Be.

Our expert chocolatiers will give us a tour through the history of Mayan Cocoa and how the seeds were used as a bargaining chip to buy different things, we will also learn the process of creating our own chocolate by roasting the seeds, peeling them, and grinding them into the metates. even choosing to add our favorite ingredient to make a personal chocolate mix. You can also participate in the collection of honey and learn about its many uses, You will make soaps with honey with your own hands and you can take one of these products to your home.

When we finish with these experiences we can go on to taste a gourmet meal based on honey and chocolate where your sense of taste and your stomach will thank you for this experience.

Finally, you can swim in a cenote with sacred waters to regain strength and vitality, legend has it that with each swim you will increase your life by one or two years.
