Côte d'Ivoire is the world's leading producer of cocoa. And yet, few people have ever held a bean in their hands, smelled its raw aroma, or understood the journey it goes through before becoming chocolate. This experience is exactly what Sankofa Road offers you in Grand-Bassam.
In 2 hours, delve into one of the country's most iconic industries, from the plantation to the food tasting.

Walk through the cocoa plantation
The discovery begins among the trees. Guided by a local expert, you'll stroll through the plantation, learn to recognise the cacao pod, and understand the stages of cultivation and harvesting.

Making your own chocolate
After the plantation, it's time for the workshop. You'll take charge of the roasting, grinding and mixing, and create your own handmade bar of chocolate from start to finish. A fun, surprising and delicious experience to enjoy on your own, as a couple or with your family.

Food tasting
Save the best for last. Taste what you have created and take home your creation – an edible souvenir that is 100% made by you.

This experience is great for curious people, food lovers, families, and anyone who wants to understand where chocolate really comes from.
