Ride an ATV from Antigua to La Azotea coffee farm, taste coffee and chocolate, and see the city from Cerro de la Cruz.
“The ATV quad bike tour was very good. We drove for 15 minutes up to Cerritos De La Cruz viewpoint. Then for another 15 minutes to the coffee plantation. The polite and enthusiastic guide gave a good tour of the coffee site and explained how it is made. We were able to try the coffee and afterwards were able to try chocolate. Then a 15 minutes drive back to the offices. So we had good time on the ATVs also which were easy to use and we drove on public paved & cobbled roads.”

“This tour of a small, sustainable eco farm was more than we ever expected. Michael is incredibly personable and hospitable (along with their adorable dogs), quickly making us feel right at home in Guatemala. Michael is passionate about his work and his farm, for what it can do for sustainable agriculture and his community. Not only did we learn an immense amount about sustainable farming practices, but we got to be immersed in the experience unlike we ever have before on a tour - making hand made tortillas & guacamole and handling coffee beans at every step of the process, from picking the beans all the way to roasting a…”
Explore El Salvador’s Ruta de las Flores, colonial towns, local markets, murals, and a coffee farm on a nine-hour small-group tour.
“I am so happy that I booked this tour. It far exceeded my expectations! The Ruta de las Flores consists of several villages, each with its own beauty and character. I can't even decide which was my favorite. For me, Jocelyn was the perfect guide. She gave pertinent information and was quick to answer any questions that the group threw at her. Otherwise, she allowed for time to discover each site, on our own. Sandra was a delight behind the wheel. I felt safe the entire journey. If you come to El Salvador, don't miss the villages of the western mountains. the best way to see a lot in one…”

“Teníamos una mucho mayor expectativa. No visitamos todos los lugares que se mencionaron en el tour al momento de contratar, no visitamos el cerro de la cruz, nosotros tuvimos que pedir ir a lugares como la casa de Santo Domingo porque no se planeaba visitar a pesar de que se mencionaba como uno de los lugares de interés y el tour en el museo del café fue súper corto, vimos que otros visitantes hicieron un tour más largo viendo lugares que nosotros no llegamos. Tampoco recibimos mucha información durante el tour como veíamos que explicaban otros guías. En señor Julio fue muy amable y muy atento durante el tour pero…”

“We had such a wonderful experience on this coffee farm tour! The husband and wife picked us up directly from our hotel and welcomed us warmly onto their family farm, which has been passed down for generations. Our host walked us through the entire process of growing and producing coffee, and he was incredibly knowledgeable. Sharing so many details in a way that was both interesting and easy to understand.

He really took his time with us, answered all of our questions, and went above and beyond to make sure…”
