Lors du CA Travellers Coffee & Gastronomic Bike Tour, vous serez émerveillé par les superbes pistes cyclables qui se frayent un chemin à travers la plantation entre les caféiers et les arbres d'ombrage. Après avoir fait du vélo parmi les plantes, nous nous dirigerons vers le musée du café pour en savoir plus sur le café guatémaltèque et pour goûter aux différentes variétés et mélanges de café. Apprenez tout le « deal » du café, de la cueillette du grain à la dégustation d'une tasse de café.
Après avoir fait partie de l'expérience de la plantation de café, nous roulerons à 10 minutes du village de San Felipe de Jesus où vous visiterez leur célèbre marché d'artisanat, découvrirez leurs activités artisanales en bois, en argile et bien sûr vous en apprendrez plus sur l'art de fabrication de bonbons traditionnels guatémaltèques. Sur le chemin du retour à Antigua, nous ferons un arrêt rapide pour essayer des boissons fermentées ¨Fresco de Suchiles¨ le Guatemala Kombucha entre autres boissons.
Pour conclure cette expérience incroyable, nous retournerons au bureau de CA Travelers et dégusterons une bière fraîche gratuite.

A spontaneous decision and we did this tour. Diego was our bike and tour guide and was the best! He knows all there is to know about the coffee processes and plantations. We saw the whole process from seed to coffee cup! Then a tour around. A local town - food and drinks all included. 4 hours well spent.
Diego was a great guide! Learned a ton about coffee and enjoyed the food portion as well. I felt like I received an authentic experience of Guatemalan life. I would not recommend for those with limited mobility or older individuals as the biking can be quite fast. Would suggest slower routes and helmets to be included as riding on the busy streets can be dangerous in some situations.
It was a very well organized bike ride where you learn a lot about coffee, Guatemala and the culture. Diego is a very enthusiastic guide, who speaks his languages well. Excellent english a also a little Dutch and Italian (the composition of our group). After the bumpy roads of Antigua, you cycle quietly over the coffee plantation. And then Diego leads you through some villages with the bicycle hose, where you can taste lunch and dessert. Highly recommended!
We have had an amazing bike tour, visiting the coffee farm, local vilages and tasting amazing traditional cuisine. It was a breeze to be out of the touristic places and getting a taste from the real Guatemala. A special thanks to our guide Diego who has contributed to this wonderful experience.
We were a party of 11 with kids age 9 and 12! Biking out of the city with all the traffic was a little crazy to start with, but as soon we reach the the cocoa farm the fun really starts! If you can ride a bike, this is a must do! They offer ebike upgrade for $20 more if you need a little help.
Diego was awesome!! He was so fun and a thrill to have. He was very knowledgeable about the tour and really loved what he was doing. Would recommend 1 million percent.
This was such a great experience! My guide Diego was a lot of fun and knowledgeable. He was also very patient with two other guests who weren't really good with bike riding. But the tour was incredible as I enjoyed learning all about the coffee making process. The reason for one star down is that the front desk (not Diego) contacted me the day before the tour asking to join their 2pm tour. I was traveling that day and thought they were the company that I had booked at 9am which was a city tour. But come to find out, they had the had mixed the time up. They then had me booked for 9am and 2pm when I had only booked 2pm. The confusion caused me to book another morning tour as I thought my city tour was canceled. And it caused me to be late for my city tour. They need to be better with schedule management and communication as the messages should have the name of the tour. People have multiple tours book and do not necessarily know the company name when booking through Viator.
Diego was the best tour guide! It was refreshing to explore the city with him and we enjoyed all his fun facts and jokes. I loved trying all the local snacks and drinks. Everyone should buy one of the helada cremosas inside the cafe at the finca. He is also a good videographer, thanks for the great tour! :D
Thank you Pablo for the tour. It was an awesome experience and to know that it was for a good cause just made it better.
I had a fabulous time with Diego. He was very knowledgeable, kind, and fun. I learned a lot on this excursion. I highly recommend it.
