M
The best
Baudillo and his wife Anna were great hosts. They were very informative about the history of the family farm, the process of growing, harvesting the beans as well as roasting, grinding and brewing. His precise process yielded the best tasting coffee. it was interesting how brewing using different methods with the same beans resulted in a different taste. So pleased with our trip. Pick up was close to where we stayed and riding in the back of the truck was an experience in itself.

For lovers of good coffee
It was a great experience to know everything behind a good cup of coffee. Baudillo and his family have a wealth of knowledge and experience in this area. So if you are a coffee lover you can not miss this Tour.

Wonderful Experience!
Wonderful tour. The coffee was great, the hosts were warm and knowledgeable. The tour operators are the actual owners of the coffee farm and they pick, process and prepare the beans themselves!

Support small family farms!
I really enjoyed this tour of the coffee farm and tasting. I love to support a small family farm and see the process from the beginning to the end. This is a true family endeavor with everyone involved in the business and the tour. I learned a lot about the different regions of coffee in Guatemala, how it is cultivated, the challenges facing the coffee bean and the families growing it due to climate change and how to taste good coffee. HIGHLY recommend this tour.
