The Tea & Chocolate Place

The Tea & Chocolate Place IS NOT a restaurant nor a coffee shop. WE DO NOT SELL FOOD OR COFFEE. We are a Visitors Center open to the public only from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm from Monday to Saturday. Since 2003, we have been working as a family to reforest steep and eroded areas around Copan Ruinas. Our objective is to serve as an educational space where you can learn about environmental issues affecting the area of Copan, at the same time learn about a variety of teas and other natural products that we make from native and foreign medicinal plants organically grown in our Copan 2012 Botanical Research Station. Our center is located in a peaceful, garden-like setting with amazing views of the mountains. We only offer a Tea Menu where you can choose from 20 different medicinal teas, or enjoy our hot chocolate beverage made from ground cacao beans (along with a small traditional local snack) while watching the sun go down. If you are hungry we recommend that you eat before, or plan for dinner

Fatima has great hands for delivering a soothing massage. They are warm and with strength yet very smooth. Bamboo patio massage pavilion is recommended by Howard, the owner of B&B Iguana Azul I had a very pleasant stay there. Fatima has a musical instrument( peobably from india, some of my yoga teacher use it in the class) very spiritual and calming. The ambiance is green and breezy. Very soothing massage after a long day of horesback riding and walking in the maya ruinas.

Hieroglyphic Stairway

Copan Ruinas are a must if in Honduras or even if you're in a neighboring country. The quality of the ruins, in terms of preservations, is outstanding. I highly recommend walking about and getting close and personal with these Mayan ruins.

Copan Ruinas

Copan Ruinas valley of Kings, Sacred Valley of the Red Scarlet Macaw. Copan Ruinas is an ancient city in the Mayan Empire. Located in western Honduras at just under 10 minutes from the border with Guatemala el Florido. More than 138,000 visitors came here in 2017, the lowest in years but with a slight increase in traffic in comparison to 2015. Many agree the bad condition of the road plays an important role to this lack of traffic. Hopefully in 2018 will be better.

Winners can really have their heart taken. Story by guide was very interesting and well done. Cesar was on top of the tour and was excellent. Looong walk, plan well, take water and remember no facility inside park. Plan to walk a great deal and wear solid shoes. Sun protection is needed

Macaw Mountain Bird Park & Nature Reserve

A multi - faceted eco-tourism project on ten heavily forested acres in a stream fed valley, only six minutes by vehicle from Copan Ruinas Central Park. Macaw Mountain Bird Park and Nature Reserve provides our visitors a very personal encounter with the fascinating birds of Honduras in a stunning natural setting. It is a relaxing, educational and quite memorable experience and your visit will help support our goals of aviary conservation and free macaw reproduction.

We had a quick afternoon visit here with our 4 year-old son. Admirable enterprise and allowed us all to see several species of birdlife, while appreciating that they had been rescued from dire circumstances. The park is easy to reach from Copan Ruinas town centre (via tuk-tuk) and the paths are well laid out throughout the property.

Luna Jaguar Hot Spring

Reviewed By noem955

I visited as part of a package tour from Finca El Cisne. I wore flip flops, but water sandals might work even better. There were enough pools, points of interest, activities and food choices to keep things interesting for 2 separate visits. The staff was very friendly, the facilities were very clean, and the entire experience relaxing, reinvigorating, and satisfying. I also brought along swimwear, a towel, and cellphone camera. Early December was not a buggy time of the year. This is the reason why the place is called Agua Caliente...????

This is a great collection to see before or after the main ruins. It may be more meaningful to see the ruins first. Nice collection. Good English signage. You need 1-1.5 hours to see it all. Highly recommend. If this review is helpful then please indicate so below.
