Wonderful Tour Experience - Our group of five had an outstanding experience visiting this coffee / fruit plantation in La Herradura. Manuel owns the farm which has been part of family for generations; he provides the tour. The tour is a wonderful walk thru his property amongst fruit trees (banana/avocado/mango/kumquat) and coffee plants. Great story telling about the history of the land and his entertaining journey in planning his business. The 90+ minute tour is interesting, educational and just fun. We drove to the farm; its an easy drive. Manuel provided a few of his avocado's for us which we enjoyed that evening as part of dinner. Great experience - don't hesitate giving it a chance. As a bonus, the farm is very close to the terrific La Herradura beach with plenty of options for a beverage and snack in a beautiful setting.

Coffee- farm march 2025 - Very interesting to see and hear about farming in south Spain. The guide is very educatet and entertaining, and we had a good time visiting the farm. If you need to take a taxi to the farm, maybe a good idé to send him a message and ask him to book the taxi, because a little problem for the taxi driver. Highly recomended 👍

Very interesting and pleasant visit - We went in January 2025 as a family to visit Manolo’s estate. It was very interesting, Manolo conducts the visit in a professional, entertaining and pleasant way. We really enjoyed knowing the species he taught us and the history of the estate. In the end we were able to buy some delicious products. Highly recommended.

A full flavour experience - We had a great 90 minutes being shown round Manuel's finca which cultivates a wide range of tropical fruits and coffee. He is a great racconteur, with lots of relevant detail and family anecdote. At the end of the tour you can buy some if the finca's produce. We're enjoying the Aguacate honey! PS it's a 40 minute walk up the hill from La Herradura. An easier walk back down.

You won't regret this tour! - Manuel was an amazing guide, he took the time to go through the various fruits and coffee he is growing and answered a ton of our questions! He's funny, personable and says 'text me anytime you have a question!" We talked about what we grow in Canada and if we could one day work on his farm.... Good luck Manuel! I hope to buy your coffee in Canada one day, but if not, I'll take the banana rum, avocado honey and anything else you are willing to give us ;) Elle and Joe

Extraordinary - The visit to the Cafetal has been extraordinary. Manuel does the route very well. Unhurriedly explains everything about the trees, the fruits, the coffee.. It is very educated in agriculture and makes the walk in the middle of nature very interesting learning and enjoying.. Thank you.
