Varied and informative - We had the tour together with the driver and guide Edmar. It was very informative and varied - we can highly recommend the tour!
It's just a pity that you don't really visit a coffee production/roasting shop but just get off for a short time to see the plantation in the mountains (the plants grow near the road). Edmar was still able to show us a coffee roastery in the city with a small coffee tasting (extra entrance fee required).
Swimming in the Salinas is great! It didn’t seem under time pressure either, it was enough time for everything - true to the motto No Stress :) and no hidden costs or other “buy this and that”.. great!
