Shuttle pick up time: 8:45 am for morning tours/1:45 pm for afternoon tours.

Shuttle pickup location: At La Ermita de Santa Lucía church located on the west side of Antigua at the corner of Calle del Espíritu Santo and Calzada Santa Lucia (Click here for the location).

The entire experience (from pick up to drop off at Ermita de Santa Lucía Catholic Church in Antigua) lasts approximately 3 ½ to 4 hours. You can expect to return back to Antigua around 12:45 pm/5:30 pm.

• Reservations must be made at least the day before the desired tour date. If you’re looking to make a reservation with less than 24 hours in advance, contact us directly to check availability.

• Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the time of the Coffee Tour will still be charged. To schedule a tour with a producer, he/she forgoes a day of work in their fields to be able to welcome and host visitors, so last minute cancellations mean a lost day of work and income.

• If you need to reschedule a tour with less than 24 hours' notice, 50% of the payment will be charged.

• The shuttle will arrive at the shuttle pick up location slightly before the pick up time to leave at 8:45 am/1:45 pm. If your party has not arrived by 8:55 am/1:55 pm, we will consider it a cancellation.

During your Coffee Tour, you can expect to walk approximately 5 kilometers (3.2 miles) as we make our way through the fields and back to the producer's home in town. Parts of the walk include uneven terrain, loose dirt paths and trails, and while minimal overall elevation gain, some parts of the walk are steep. If you foresee having any difficulty participating in this kind of activity, we can make the necessary adjustments so that you have the most enjoyable experience possible. Just please be sure to add those notes during your checkout process.
