What people are saying about San Miguel de Cozumel

Cruise excursion was sold out, so I booked a later seating through Getyourguide, which was 1/2 the price, though the cruise line’s did include the cab rides to/from the Puerto Maya pier. (International Pier is probably walkable.) We were the only 2 people in the 11 a.m. seating, but they honored the reservation, so we had a private experience. Such fun! Wendy greeted us with a chocolate martini; gave the history of chocolate; we ground cocoa beans and made our own, and then sampled lots of chocolate and Mexican wine. (Total time about 2 hours.) We have spent lots of time in Cozumel before, so this was something different to do. FYI: they also offer a piñata making class for kids. Stingray Beach Club is very clean, workers super helpful. We got there early and had a drink by the water and watched people snorkel with the stingrays. (We’ve done that in Cayman, but this seemed like a great option for families with younger kids.) Nive place right on the water. Fun time!

There was a mixup about the meeting point ( who knew there were to Juanito Benito statues in Cozumel) but Tania, our cool and guide found us and we began our cooking adventure. The experience was excellent. Tania was delightful. The food was amazing. Great flavorful drinks. Fun to be in the market to get the produce and meat we needed for lunch. Very reasonable price.

It was an amazing experience, starting with a drink. The introduction of the origin of chocolate was really interesting. After the introduction it was time to start making our own chocolate with the great help of our guide. The last part of the day was combining wine and chocolate. It was really interesting.

Tania was great company and I had so much fun during the day. Definitely recommendable. Only the meeting point was a little hard to understand.

Great experience! We learned a lot and did our own chocolate. The combination with wine was great and an experience
