Boatingmom Posted May 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Any suggestions for Granada excursions for a family with a 5 & 8 year old?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jctraveller Posted May 30, 2005 #2 Share Posted May 30, 2005 hi we recently visited with slighly older children (youngest 11) but they loved our tour of the island - see A&E Tours thread earlier. They loved swimming at Annandale Falls, the monkeys at Grand Etang, and seeing all the fruits etc growing wild, and the spice store demonstration - where chocolate comes from! The beach was beautiful - all in all a fantastic day. enjoy:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatingmom Posted May 31, 2005 Author #3 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Is that the same as Mandoo's spice tour?? Dis anybody get car sick as I hear it is quite hilly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denboy Posted June 4, 2005 #4 Share Posted June 4, 2005 I presume like all children they like chocolate so why try visiting the Grenada Chocolate Factory where you can see how chocolate is made, being able to see how it is produced from the bean to the finished bar you buy in the shop. Not forgetting the samples they can eat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denboy Posted June 4, 2005 #5 Share Posted June 4, 2005 And yes the island is very hilly (mountainous would be nearer the point) but it does make for some fabulous views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SqueakyDust Posted June 8, 2005 #6 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Oooh, never knew there was a chocolate factory on Grenada. Can anyone give me more info on it/tours to it? Our kids would love that, and erm,... so would I ;o) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denboy Posted June 8, 2005 #7 Share Posted June 8, 2005 The web site for the chocolate factory is grenadachocolate.com I'm sure any of the tour operators would be happy to take you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SqueakyDust Posted June 8, 2005 #9 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Just had a look at the site. The Company is a small local one which offer FREE tours to small groups! Has anyone done the tour? If so, does anyone know the price of the chocolate at the factory? (Seems a tad expensive to order online!) Also, anyone any idea how much it would cost by taxi to get to the factory? many thanks :o) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denboy Posted June 9, 2005 #10 Share Posted June 9, 2005 Yoy may think this chocolate is a bit expensive but it is much better quality/tastier than Cadburys Dairy Milk or Mars Galaxy. Don't know how much a taxi would be but you could negotiate with one of the drivers when you arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
