One time, she arranged a journey led by a guide with a Ph.D in anthropology and food Studies. “The first visit was to a Kekchi Maya village for preparing a traditional lunch, followed by a visit to a cacao farm where chocolate is using a heirloom stone tool that has been passed down from five generations.” Language(s) Spoken: English Average Daily Spend: $500 per person Trip Planning Fees: none Contact Info patricia@absolutebelize.com | 501 602 9609 absolutebelize.com facebook.com/AbsoluteBelize instagram.com/absolute_belize Was this page helpful?
