The tour operator who picked us up from our bed and breakfast was prompt and helpful, and we enjoyed the scenic drive to Lopinot. We arrived early for the official tour of the plantation and thus had time to do some macro photography of butterflies, flowers, bees, and a baby praying mantis within the plantation grounds. We enjoyed seeing the plantation structures, including the grave site (Compte de Lopinot) and hearing spooky tales. We especially liked the walk within the cocoa trees and eating the fruit around the cocoa beans of a freshly picked cocoa pod. We appreciated the chocolate-making demonstration and explanation, the cocoa bean dance, and the chocolate sampling. The plantation tour guide was enthusiastic and energetic, which added to the enjoyability of the experience. A highlight for us was the visit to a cave with fascinating creatures, which ended the tour.
