Great tour, highly recommended. - Cipriano was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything from local history to how the farmers’ cooperative runs. As well as tasting some mangoes he also introduced us to some tropical fruits I’d never heard of. It was a well run day with a fantastic guide. Thank you!

Always happy!!!! - It was our 2. Tour with Cipriano. It doesn’t get any better, as it is always small groups and all explanations in Spanish, English or German. Cipriano and his team are in the best hands. Everything is conveyed with a lot of expertise, dedication and, if necessary, humor. Also the ratio price/performance is top!!!!!

Mangoes and Avocados up close - A really informative day about something I previously knew nothing about. Following a very informative tour through the farm looking at not only mangoes and avocados, we saw different exotic fruits that the farm is experimenting with. This was followed by a tasting session of these fruits. We then headed over to Vélez Malaga to the church of Santa Maria and also the tower that overlooks the town. From here there are amazing views. Next stop - a very welcome lunch. Throughout the day, Cupriano and Miguel were perfect, knowledgeable hosts. A fabulous day !

If you like Mangos and Avocados, book this tour! - Had a great time! Cipriano, our tour guide showed us and explained the different varieties of Mangoes and Avocados. The Avocados weren't quite ready yet, so he made up for it with other fruits from around the farm. Highly recommend! Then took a quick trip to Velez-Malaga and spent some time at the cathedral there with views of the fort nearby. He explained their religious holiday "Semana Santa" which really sparked my interest in the Catholic Faith. Note, the meeting location is not in Malaga (it's in Torre del Mar or nearby Lagos). Took an Uber and made it there fine.

Learning about many different tropical fruits - not just mangoes and avocadoes - We had an amazing tour with Cipriano, he is a truly gifted guide. Small group of 6 people, comfortable transportation, lots of laughter and sunshine. Highly recommend.

Interesting info about tropical fruits and Velez Malaga - We had a lovely day and became experts in tropical fruits. At least for one day;) It was a lot of information to take in. And the historic information of Velez Malaga made us want to visit the city again. The part we liked best was the plantation. Interesting to understand how a family runs the business. And we could really feel Cipris passion for his city

Fantastic tropical tour - TROPICAL ROUTE We where 4 norwegian persons who did participate in a trip to a tropical garden with mangos and avocados. Afterward we had a sighseeing in Velez Malaga. It was a very interesting tour where we were told about the different types of mangos and avocados. Afterwards we had the oportunity to taste them. The guide spoke very good english and was a very simpatic person. In Velez Malaga he showed us two beautifull churches and we had a very nice view over the town. At the end of the day he took us to a restaurant where we got a very good lunsj. I would very much recommand this trip to other tourists. Marianne Naess

This tour will be the highlight of your visit to the Malaga area!! - A MUST do if you are in the area! Highly recommend - for national and international visitors. The content of the tour was interesting, fun and educational. Cipriano's knowledge, passion, friendliness and flexibility is what makes this particular tour unique guaranteeing a spectacular time! The itinerary had a nice balance - something for everyone; I am a foodie so the avocado/mango and lunch were my favorite parts. My husband enjoys history so learning about a few of the historical places in Velez-Malaga were interesting to him while not "too much" for me. Due to the small size of the tour (8 people max) by the end of it we not only had a wonderful time learning about the area but we left feeling like we made new friends. A very nice touch was that after the tour, Cipriano's partner, Maria, sent us a video of the days events giving us a nice memento of the day. If we had had more time we would have done other Ole tours that were offered. Will do when we return! Also, Cipriano has an excellent command of English (German too) which was important to us because my husband does not speak Spanish.
