Nice tour and tasting of banana products - Nice informative tour of banana plantation with a chance to take photos afterwards. Small banana ’museum’ and little shop with reasonable prices.

Let yourself be fooled by the banana plant - We have learned unthinkable things from the banana world. The visit has been very entertaining and very complete. The place breathes calm and authenticity. And in the end, the appetizer, which is a highly recommended experience!

Wonderful tour for something slightly different. - Had a wonderful day learning all about bananas…. I know that sounds a little off beat and you’d be right but I’m so happy we did it. Our guide Maria had a good sense of humor which added a great little ‘slant’ to the tour. We learnt a lot and I’ll never look at a banana the same again. As usual the weather was perfect as we wound our way around the top of the plantation, it was like walking through a slice of history. The tour ended up with a banana based tasting in a garden with absolutely amazing views. This was a very relaxing way to do something that’s slightly different…. I highly recommend it!

Now you'll now why bananas are curved! Good experience! - The museum could be bigger and more informative about history etc. The tour itself is about 30 minutes and lots of information is given. You'll learn how a banana grows and why it is not straight but curved. I feel like it could be a bit longer, but not much. After the tour you are free to taste soms banana delicacy.

Definitely worth it!! - Great location, cool guide, and interesting informations. In my opinion the tour could be a little bit longer because there is so much to learn about. At the end you get a free tasting of drinks and food made out of bananas. All in all a great Choice!

Guided tour with samples. - We were on a guided tour of the plantation. We got information about banana cultivation and how many different kinds of bananas there are. Then there was tasting of bananas, drinks and jams with the possibility to buy in their store. It was a pleasant experience.
