The Mayan Cacao Company Tours and Activities

Located close to one of Cozumel’s most popular beaches, The Mayan Cacao Company offers a glimpse into the important role chocolate plays in Mayan culture. Here, you’ll pass through interactive exhibits before sampling a pre-Hispanic chocolate drink and a chocolate margarita.
The Basics
Exhibition highlights include a replica of a typical Mayan home and chocolate history exhibits. You can explore The Mayan Cacao Company independently or on a guided tour, which ensure you learn more than if visiting alone. Many guided tours include a skip-the-line admission ticket, which proves especially useful for cruise ship passengers and travelers on a time budget. For something more hands-on, choose a margarita and chocolate making package.
