Not suitable for kids under 15, wouldn't recommend this for our friends or family
Maui Chocolate & Coffee Tours的点评
点评:Knowing what I know now about this tour, I would not go on it again or recommend it, and definitely regret spending the amount of money this costs.
Three of us (7yo and my husband and I) ventured in the tour ourselves. Our guide was knowledgeable about the farm, but we were surprised to not be able to walk through much of the farm. Much of the "tour" involved sitting in a garage and getting a lecture on the history of cacao and coffee, which was really dry and boring for my kid. I don't think this would be suitable for kids younger than 12 for sure.
As part of the tour, we did make a concoction with cacao, but the amount of all spice, pepper and other spices made it really unpleasant for my kid. I guess I didn't read the tour overview well, because I had thought we'd be making "hot chocolate" of some kind. We ended up leaving early because our kid was squirrelly by the end, missing the coffee tasting portion.
As others have mentioned the actual chocolate tasting sections were tiny and not from the farm itself.
Highlights for our kid were meeting the goats as we walked from the front of the farm up to the garage.
Warning, only facilities onsite are outhouses.
For the price, I'd go to another tour.
翻译:以我现在的了解,我不会再参加这个旅行团,也不会推荐给别人,而且绝对后悔花了这么多钱。
我们一家三口(7岁的孩子、我丈夫和我)参加了这个旅行团。我们的导游对农场很了解,但我们很惊讶地发现,我们几乎没法在农场里自由走动。大部分“参观”时间都花在坐在车库里听讲解可可和咖啡的历史,这对我孩子来说实在枯燥乏味。我觉得这个旅行团肯定不适合12岁以下的孩子。
作为旅行的一部分,我们确实制作了一种可可饮品,但是里面加了太多五香粉、胡椒和其他香料,我孩子喝了之后非常难受。我想我可能没仔细看旅行团的介绍,因为我以为我们会做某种“热巧克力”之类的东西。最后,因为孩子走着走着就坐不住了,我们只好提前离开了,错过了品尝咖啡的环节。
正如其他人提到的,巧克力品尝区非常小,而且并非产自农场。
我们孩子最喜欢的是从农场前门走到车库的路上与山羊互动。
提醒:农场内唯一的设施是旱厕。
就这个价格而言,我建议选择其他旅游项目。
