  • In this video we went on the Island Discovery & Chocolate Experience tour of Cozumel through Norwegian Cruise Line. We sampled some delicious honey at the Mayan Bee Sanctuary, had a chocolate experience at the Mayan Cacao Company, enjoyed a Tequila tasting and also had some delicious tacos. Plus we had a beautiful ocean view at El Mirador.
    Check out the full experience here and what we thought of the tour.

    Island Discovery & Chocolate Experience
    Learn how several characteristic Mexican products are made and enjoy tastings that showcase their unique flavors. At the Mayan Cacao Company, you will learn how the ancient Mayas produced chocolate from cacao beans and drank it for ceremonial and medicinal purposes. Following a tasting of chocolate, you will join a tequila seminar and discover how this iconic premium spirit is produced from the blue agave plant. A sampling will solidify why tequila is so revered in Mexico. Yet another tasting awaits you at the Mayan Bee Sanctuary, whose honey bears a more floral fragrance and citrusy taste than other honeys. You will also learn how the ancient Mayas cultivated stingless Melipona bees, the same species used to produce the honey at the sanctuary. For the ultimate coastal view of the area, you will pause at El Mirador lookout to watch the crashing surf, which has slowly carved arches in the limestone.

    I've never visited Mexico yet, but it's definitely on my list. Exploring it by boat sounds even more enjoyable, I imagine. Thanks for all the tips and explanations in your video!

    I have heard good things about Cozumel. I definitely want to visit there sometime. I really like how lively and colorful the streets are. El Mirador looks so nice, but the beach doesn't look so inviting, it might hurt to swim there.

    The Bee Sanctuary looks awesome! Cozumel seems beautiful all around. Very touristic but, that's similar to Isla Mujeres. You can still find the quiet spots. I love the signs in all the Mexican towns and cities. I did a chocolate museum in Croatia. They delve into the history that begins in the Mexico and the Americas. I'd love to go to a cocoa farm in Mexico.

      Cozumel seems small enough to go it alone if rent a buggy or bike to get around.

      Also what's your favorite type of tequila? Blanco, Reposado, Anejo, Super Anejo or Mezcal which is technically not tequila but, in the family.
