Great place for history of chocolate. Worth a visit

Very disapointing. We walked there today and at 10 in the morning and the place was deserted. No opening hours anywhere in the Matagalpa map where they advertise. It looked worn out and not well maintained.
Please remove your place from the tourist map to avoid that other people step in this tourist tram

Personnel pas très sympathique. Prix à la tête du client. Chocolat très moyen. Ne vaut pas le chocolat Suisse, même industriel.

We'll worth a visit and the $6 entry fee. A short taxi ride out of Matagalpa (walkable if you really want to but as taxis are so frequent and cheap I wouldn't bother). Only a small place, all work done by just 3 women. Expect an explanation of each step of the process but be aware you will only get to actually witness the current task in action (for our trip it was packaging). Tour in Spanish, if you understand at least a bit, you should get the gist. If you have no Spanish at all, you might want to book a tour through Matagalpa Tours, I understand they transport you and provide an English speaking guide, however the fee is more like $20-$25 dollars which is a big increase from $6 when going on your own. At the end of the tour you get to taste a couple of samples with a coffee. The chocolate is really good and you can buy bars cheaper here than any of the shops.

Visite à ne pas manquer si vous êtes dans la région à moins de 100 córdoba par personne. Pas besoin de passer par une agence, très facile à faire soi-même. Ne pas hésiter à pousser la porte même si fermé de prime abord. La visite débute pas dès explication sur la culture du cacao. S'en suit une visite de l'atelier de fabrication du chocolat, de la réception dès fèves à l'emballage des tablettes. Le tour s'achèvent avec une dégustation de chocolat et de thé d'écorce de cacao.

Un interesante lugar para aprender sobre la producción de chocolate artesanal nicaragüense. Recomendaría el impartir los tours en inglés (con personal capacitado) para facilitar la comprensión del visitante extranjero.

Small place and not really worth 8 dollars for the tour. Still a nice place to spend an hour. If you don't speak Spanish you're going to have to book an expensive tour before you go. The guy that works here only speaks Spanish.

Like most I did the tour with Matagalpa tours and I highly recommend it, the guide was great and informative. It's not a huge place but a must for chocolate lovers.
