This was an amazing tour. The guide shared a bit of history and present-day information about the area. He also answered out questions and provided comic relief. The tour of the herbs was informative. We enjoyed the lunch the most. We highly recommend this tour if you are interested in local agriculture.

Mit der Abholung hat alles super funktioniert. Auf dem Weg zur Farm hat er uns schon sehr viel erklärt. Bei der Farm angekommen, konnte man dann verschiedene Früchte probieren und danach ging es durch die Farm. Hier hat er ebenfalls sehr viel erklärt. Das Essen am Ende war auch sehr lecker.
Der Guide Lascells war immer freundlich und hat sein bestes gegeben. Es hat sich sehr gelohnt und man hat sehr viel gelernt.
Ich kann es nur jedem empfehlen!
