Kahkow Experience runs a guided walk through cacao-to-chocolate production from a base on Calle Las Damas, sourcing beans directly from Dominican farmers to ensure fairer pay and back sustainable growing practices. The two-to-three hour visit covers fermenting, drying, roasting and conching before finishing with a tasting and the chance to make your own bar.
It is family-friendly and runs in small groups, so book ahead rather than turning up.
Local tip: The tasting room, ranked by cocoa percentage, is the part most visitors remember afterwards.
