An absolutely amazing experience! Our guide was highly professional and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared extensive insights about nature and the ecosystem, which we found fascinating. The trip was diverse, and the products we tasted at the coffee farm were absolutely delicious. We even had the chance to taste real cocoa and make our own chocolate! This trip was truly unforgettable and well worth experiencing!
