- Do you get to visit the cacao farms?
- I had the opportunity of visit a bunch of them in Venezuela, all of them beautiful and with exotics views, but my favorite has to be Chuao´s Cacao Farm. Not only is the town and farm amazing but the journey is part of the fun. There are no road to get to the town and the only way to get there is by boat. So you have to cross a cloud forest mountain range to get to the the town of Choroni where you get a local fisherman to take you to the valley and villiage of Chuao. Once I get there the tradition and stories of the little town come to life.
