Rare GeezerCouple Posted November 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 18, 2018 We are eager to see the Chocolate Factory, and spend a bit of time there, and of course, it would be exceedingly rude not to purchase some chocolate, right? Does anyone know how far it is from the cruise port, and approximately how much it costs for a taxi there? Are taxis easily available for a return to the port, or should we ask one to wait? Also, although we don't want a huge tour, are there any special sights that are sort of en route from port to Chocolate Factory? (We probably need to avoid spice factories, or minimize time near them, due to possible allergies.) We understand that this is a "little" factory, but that makes it more interesting. (For example, we were fascinated a few years ago with a tour of the Curacao factory... not at all what we envisioned in advance, and we loved seeing it for that reason.) Many thanks!

GC Go to Belmont Estate on the East Coast (chocolate plantation had a great guided tour, traditional methods of processing, new chocolate making room with air conditioning, shop and lovely grounds and lunch). Go across the centre of the island to get there and see the Mona Monkeys and Grand Etang. I would recommend getting a BYO (build your own) tour with Sunsation Tours or you can simply ask the Taxi Association guys in the cruise ship terminal when you arrive 🙂 Edited November 21, 2018 by IslandStar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
