    Amazing Tour

    We booked a tour from Australia via email, communication was amazing and David answered all of our questions easily and in depth. Leading up to our arrival in Peru David and I communicated via whatsapp. It turned out the farms we were supposed to be visiting were no longer available for the tour, which was a little upsetting but within a day David had arranged another type of tour. When we arrived in Cusco David met us at our hotel and talked to us about what we would see and where we would visit. David was flexible with pick up points too and we arranged for the pick up in Ollantaytambo instead of Cusco. Omar was our guide for the tour and we had a driver as well, he was on time to pick us up and the car was very comfortable for our drive to Quillabamba (approximately 4.5 hours through different altitudes, we had altitude sickness tablets which helped). We checked into our hotel and then headed to a co-operative, called Kampaq which processed cacao & coffee beans from local farmers, the visit of the factory was very informative, the manager shared lots of information about the fermentation & roasting process. After this we were taken to a farm in Echarati at the start of the Amazon. Mario was the farmer and he took us around the farm, showing us all of his cacao trees and the different varieties, we tried fresh cacao pulp (which is delicious, a bit of a passion fruit taste), he showed us his citrus and coffee trees as well as his beehives. We then made hot chocolate by roasting cacao beans, then peeling the skin, then grinding into a paste and then adding water and honey to make a liquid. At the end his whole family came out and we drank the hot chocolate all together, it was fantastic. After the tour I was feeling a bit unwell so when we got back to Quillabamba Omar took us to the chemist and helped me buy medicine as I don't speak Spanish, then the 3 of us went out for a very nice dinner together. We would highly recommend the tour, it was definitely a highlight of the time spent in South America. A big thank you from Patrick & Keva

    Response from the operator: Dear Patrick & Keva Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review about your experience with us, visiting cocoa farmers. we appreciate. hope everything is going well there. kind regards David

    Amazing Coffee & Cocoa Tour

    I had a truly amazing time on CoclaTours' "Coffee & Cocoa Farm 2D Tour" - it was a very personalized experience that I will remember for years to come! David personally picked the group up from the airport, and got us situated with the bilingual guide (Omar). We drove in a private (and very comfortable, I might add) van to the Huayopata region a few hours outside of Cusco, which was beautiful. We took a tour of both a family run coffee and cocoa farm, which I was pleasantly surprised to learn they were both organic and fair trade certified! The families were both so lovely and welcoming. After the tours, we got a chance to enjoy a home-cooked meal and get to know the families a little better, which was so nice. It didn't feel rushed or "commercial" in any way. Thank you, David, Omar, and CoclaTours for a great experience!

    Response from the operator: Dear Chelsea thank you very much for taking a time to write a nice review about your experience with us. happy to know that you enjoyed. we are also happy in sharing with you and the group our experience as farmers, as you mentioned organic and fair trade certified farmers. we wish you the best regards David

    Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.

    How much does Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay cost?

    +

    Prices start at $70 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cusco is not rushed.

    Is Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cusco can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cusco within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Cusco?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Full-Day Humantay Lake Trek (Meals Included), Cusco: Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley Premium Day Trip with Meals. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Cusco?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Cusco?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay?

    +

    Included: Lunch; Night stay at the familiy's farm, private room with hot water; Dinner; Breakfast; and Professional tour guide. Not included: Snacks you may buy on the way to the farm. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 518 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay offered in?

    +

    +

    Is Authentic 2-Day Cacao Tour in Cusco Jungle with Local Homestay wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
