Coffee Tour Antigua

Description

Experience the full journey of Guatemala’s most iconic export — coffee — from seed to cup. Just a short drive from Antigua, this immersive tour invites you to explore the lush coffee fields of San Pedro Las Huertas and witness firsthand the traditional process of artisanal coffee production.

Walk alongside a local coffee farmer as you learn each step — from planting and harvesting to roasting and brewing. Gain insight into the daily life of Guatemalan coffee producers, understand how altitude and climate shape flavor, and, of course, enjoy freshly roasted coffee right at the source.
