Amazing! - Honestly, this tour gave me a new perspective on the coffee I drink everyday. No frills or fancy stuff, just straight to the plant and how the farmers harvest it. I enjoyed roasting the beans and learning about the process of growing the coffee plants. Such a delicately designed system of labor. It was a very intimate and fulfilling experience! Thanks so much!

Awesome experience! - This tour was so great! My guide, Delmy, was so knowledgeable, interesting, intelligent, and kind. I didn’t realize I would be the only one on this tour- it was such a good deal for a personalized, high-quality experience. B1 and Delmy were communicative and made sure I knew exactly where to go & what to bring. I can’t over-state how good the tour was. The perfect first stop in Antigua!
