About this activity

Spend a full day immersed in Brazil's historic Coffee Valley, exploring a century-old organic farm that represents the country's Golden Coffee era. Learn the complete coffee journey from seed to cup, participate in roasting and tasting sessions, and enjoy farm-to-table breakfast and lunch prepared with ingredients grown on-site.

Experience a full-day guided tour visiting the Coffee Valley region and discover a centenary old coffee farm from the Golden Coffee era of Brazil, still productive and certified for good organic practices.

After hotel pick-up, travel to the farm to get a complete understanding of the coffee process, from sowing the seed and harvesting to drinking a cup of coffee.

The farm also produces buffalo milk & cheeses, raises sheep, cultivates and processes banana, sugar-cane, fruits, and a variety of vegetables.

Another highlight is to meet and interact with local farmers and having our guide giving you an utter insight about the importance of the coffee for Brazilian socio-economic development, culture and history.

Gastronomy is an important asset of the farm, where all the products are produced and sourced locally, thus being fresher, tastier and more nutritious.

This tour also includes a full breakfast at the farmhouse and a typical freshly prepared lunch in a wonderful atmosphere.
