ADVENTURE DISCLAIMER
Dandelion Trips are not for the faint of heart. You will get mosquito bites, and mud on your boots. If that sounds like your kind of adventure, you’re in the right place.
BRAZIL
December 1st - 7th, 2024
Visit chocolate makers in São Paulo, then travel to (and stay on) a working cacao farm, where you’ll learn about the cultivation process and enjoy fresh cacao pods. We’ll have just enough time for a stop at the beach.
THAILAND
January 19th - 25th, 2025
Meet with Bangkok chocolate makers before traveling to the country, where we’ll visit cocoa farms, markets, and a Thai temple. We’ll also enjoy a uniquely cocoa-focused dinner.
UGANDA
March 3rd - 10th, 2025
Visit cacao farms and a fermentary to learn about Uganda’s cultivation process, enjoy a private chocolate tasting, and trek through the forest in search of chimpanzees.
What Is an Origin Trip?
We call our Origin Trips “cocoa matchmaking,” because they’re all about letting our guests and sourcing partners connect over a deep love of chocolate. These trips are usually week-long visits to the farms where we source our cocoa. We typically take up to about 12 people (with a minimum age of 16), so we can keep the experience personal and interactive. Origin Trips aren’t just classes — they’re a balance of education and entertainment.
If you participate in an Origin Trip, you’ll get to enjoy cacao in its natural habitat, learn about the chocolate-making process, build relationships with fellow chocolate lovers, and step outside of your comfort zone.
