Andrew our guide really made this experience special. He is quite knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. He has a calming presence. The tour isn’t just about coffee. It’s also about the fauna, wildlife, history and culture of the region and country. We learned a lot about what it takes to bring a cup of coffee to our morning breakfast table. The new cafe they built at the facility is also quite nice. Would highly recommend this tour and hopefully you get Andrew as your guide.

Das Erlebnis war Klasse - wir haben vieles gehen und am Ende gab es ein Tasting. Der Guide war sehr nett und wir konnten alle Fragen stellen.
Eine absolute Empfehlung :)

What a great local experience! Our guide, Andrew, took us through the whole process of growing and making coffee. You get to do a nice easy hike, see the inner works of the Beneficio (processing plant) and then get to enjoy some fantastic traditionally made coffee. If you really want to understand just how hard it is to grow and harvest coffee beans - this tour is for you!
