Not at all what the description says. They crammed us into a van instead of the open air bus like pictured. The coffee and cocoa demonstration lasted a total of 3 minutes and did not even offer tasting of coffee. Most of the stops seemed to only be for gift shops. The market he led us through was just a walk through which included alive and dead chickens where everyone was gagging from the smell. The guide did not talk about the culture during the trip and instead slept the whole was back. I wish I could get my money back for this waste of time.

The visit to the open market was very interesting and loved previewing the spices. Really enjoy making a cigar and watching them being made.

At first I was concerned that we were riding in a closed in van. I was looking and dress for a vehicle with no air and able to see views. The tour was like a vip tour after all. The tour guide was on point.
