First Cacao Farm Tour at la Calera

Yesterday we had our first Cacao Farm Tour with 5 clients from USA and Thailand.
The tour started with 20 minutes of a nice and fresh rain. After that, the sun came out for the whole day to follow us on our trip from the shores fo the lake Cocibolca to the Casa Hacienda passing through the Cacao plantations.


This time, the highlights of the trip were:
  • The Congo monkeys that we saw twice: once while waiting for the rain to stop and the second time while swimming in the natural water press inside the rainforest: A unique moment!
  • All the butterflies we saw during the whole day: Blue, yellow, big, small, red... Some even came to eat with us and even on the face of Ana one of our client.
  • Tasting the white pulp around the beans inside the cacao pod: A culinary must!
  • Thanks to the beautiful weather we had, the view over las Isletas was absolutely gorgeous.
  • Finally, the swim in the thermal waters near the lake just before going back to Granada was really fantastic with this amazing feeling of being alone in the wild.
We all really enjoyed our trip and hope that a lot of other people will go on learning and having fun like we did today.

That's all folks! Next tour soon...
