Excellent Tour! - My friend and I enjoyed this excursion so much. Our guide, Delmy was amazing. She was very thorough and her explanations of the production of Coffee and we met up with a young man named Cristobal who was a local farmer. He took us to a coffee farm and explained everything about the coffee plant And how they pick it, etc. etc. We ended up in his home grinding roasting and drinking coffee. So much fun! I recommend this tour to anyone who is interested in getting to see the real process of making coffee and it’s great to walk through the small town on the outskirts of Antigua. Beautiful place!

An excellent artisan coffee tour from bean to cup. - A very hands-on and up-close insight into the cultivation and production of artisan coffee. You actually get to toast the beans and drink the resulting coffee. Also a good opportunity to see and learn about the history of the town of San Pedro Huertas.

Best coffee tour! - Loved the coffee tour! Axel and Martha showed me the coffee plants as well as many other plants growing in the area. I learnt so much! I also got to try to make my own coffee from scratch, roasting and grinding and finally drinking it, it was delicious. And best thing is that this is a Guatemalan business, supporting the local community!

Amazing local experience! - It was an amazing experience! We walked through the coffee farm and learned about the process from a local farmer and learned about other plants along the way. We also learned about the culture of coffee. Afterwards we went to their home and watched as they made a fresh pot of coffee from start to finish. The family was so welcoming and provided coffee and some biscuits. We loved how local it felt and that the proceeds of the coffee we bought went directly to the farmer. Our guide walked us back to the meeting point and made sure we got into our taxi safely before leaving. Highly recommend!

A memorable coffee journey - I had a delightful and intellectual half-day tour with Axel and Marta a. We visited a coffee plantation at the foothills of Agua Volcano, where we learned about the cultivation of coffee beans. Afterwards, we went to Marta's home to experience the traditional coffee roasting process and enjoyed a pot of coffee that we roasted ourselves. The entire tour was very enjoyable, and Axel and Marta were incredibly warm and knowledgeable. I highly recommend it to travelers visiting Antigua!
