(Translated by Google) Excellent idea of ​​the museum in this street so representative of cocoa, the street ‘Panama’. I suggest paying the tour guide ($ 8) at the museum entrance. Very interesting. (Original) Excelente idea la del museo en esta calle tan representativa del cacao, la calle ‘Panamá’. Sugiero pagar el guía turístico($8) a la entrada del museo. Muy interesante.

Recommended if you have an hour or two to spare while in Guyaquil. Relatively small but nice museum about the history of cacao in Ecuador. Educational place to get out of the sun if it's a warm day. $5 entrance fee. Displays are all in Spanish. Audio tours in English and Spanish available for $2.50 extra. Many nearby restaurants. As of December 2021.

Closed it seems, due to renovation and construction on the location. Stay tuned...

Great place to learn Ecuador's cacao history.

(Translated by Google) In truth, there is a museum for everything you can imagine and thus there is also a Museum of Cacao. The place is in a building that has been restored. Inside, the museum exhibition is really very interesting and you learn about the multiple connections that Guayaquil has with this product and how much of its development was due, and still is due, to the cultivation of this product. Getting there is easy and you only ask for a contribution when you enter, which is voluntary. (Original) En verdad, hay un museo para todo lo que se pueda imaginar y así hay también un Museo del Cacao. El lugar está en un edificio que ha sido restaurado. Por dentro la muestra del museo es en verdad muy interesante y se aprende de las múltiples conecciones que tiene Guayaquil con este producto y de cómo gran parte de su desarrollo se debió, y aún se debe, al cultivo de este producto. Llegar es fácil y sólo se pide una contribución al ingresar que es voluntaria.

(Translated by Google) To enter you must give a contribution. Let's support Tourism, they can give 1 cent if they want but I suggest giving at least 1 dollar, it's worth it. Long live Guayaquil! (Original) Para entrar debes dar una contribución. Apoyemos al Turismo, pueden dar 1 centavo si quieren pero sugiero dar al menos 1 dólar, vale la pena. Viva Guayaquil!

(Translated by Google) excellent place to visit (Original) lugar excelente para visitar

Nice museum to visit in Guayaquil.

It is important to know the history of the golden nugget, in the museum there is a lot of information about how our ancestors cultivated cocoa, the guides are very attentive and for nationals the entrance is only a voluntary contribution, an experience that is worth it. All very nice and with excellent infrastructure.

Nice place to visit and learn about the history of cocoa, the entry cost is voluntary for nationals, and at the end you can taste all the delights of chocolate

Great little museum to get a good history of the role cacao had in Guayaquil and Ecuador. Not too long, not too simple, and put together very nicely and interactively. Don't miss visiting the restaurant Juliana on the top floor for a great view of Santa Ana, and the chocolate store and mini factory on the first floor.

Interesting place that shows the history of the ecuadorian cocoa. The anatomically correct dolls are very realistic and well done which adds more pleasure to the experience.

It's small but very informative about the history of the Cafe. It has a bar on the third floor and a cafeteria on the first floor. Admission is $5 or if you are local you just leave a donation. Recommended if you are in the area

A pleasant experience, very well structured, spaces with technology such as augmented reality, art, history, audio guide and personal guide, but the latter two require a financial payment, for nationals the entrance price is a voluntary contribution, for foreigners 5 dollars.

A beautifully made museum on three floors (elevator available) about the history of cocoa. Lots of information, but unfortunately only in Spanish. Admission is $5, an electronic guide costs extra! It's a shame, for the price of admission at least the texts in English would have been nice. Certainly interesting for older children too. As a reward, there's cocoa, cake or delicious ice cream in the café on the ground floor. Of course there is also a café for adults! We weren't allowed to enter the bar (in the afternoon!) because we had an infant with us and they weren't allowed in the bar!🤷‍♀️It's a shame and incomprehensible, since there is also food and a café there and it's not a nightclub. But apparently that's a rule!

Awesome place to visit and learn something about Cacao and culture.

The chocolate ice cream they sell in house is some of the best ice cream I have ever eaten! Absolutely recommended!

Fantastic Museum. Be sure to get a tour guide and afterward get the 70% chocolate ice cream at the chocolate shop attached

Very good museum in a beautiful old house. Displays and explanations are in Spanish only.

I walked by this museum today but it's still under construction however building in which museum would set up looks great. I guess it would great place to visit. Not sure when it's planned to be opened.

Cute little place to visit

Wanna knIw everything about chocolate ? Come here ask few questions.. staff got ur answers

I went with my clients to have another point of view about Cacao and Guayaquil lifestyle when it was the boom of Cacao. Also to know that Ecuador is the main spot of the beginning of Cacao history.

Ubicated in the of the city, the guides help you with your tour. Very interesting place!! The cacao guayaquil is delicious.

Good

Great experience in the museum - just missing the English translation of all paragraphs in Spanish to fully understand.

Gorgeous place, very interesting its story very complete and important for the Country.

As I scroll through the pictures which others have posted, I see only Spanish text with no effort to translate any written English. That seems an unfortunate choice and absolutely precludes me visiting.

El Museo del Cacao es una iniciativa privada ubicada en la calle Panamá, en el centro tradicional e histórico de Guayaquil. El ingreso se hace por grupos, puede ser con un guía en cuyo caso tiene un costo, o puede ser sin guía en cuyo caso solicitan una contribución voluntaria. La casa donde se desarrolla el Museo tiene construcción tradicional, en varios pisos. En ellos se presenta un recorrido por la historia del cacao, desde la época de las culturas indígenas, la época colonial, moderna, y la importancia del cacao en la economía del país, con su época de auge y su caída Gracias a eventos como: las enfermedades de la fruta, los piratas, caídas en el precio. Es una excelente opción de visita para familias, especialmente durante los fines de semana cuando la calle Panamá es de uso exclusivamente peatonal. Hay policías constantemente y parqueo privado en los alrededores. Si el recorrido dejó ganas de probar la fruta, hay una chocolatería inmediatamente junto al Museo.
