Calling all gourmet coffee aficionados! Join this journey into the mountains by open-air safari truck or by coach. The ride is half the fun, and the views are breathtaking.
Venture off the beaten track and into the beautiful tropical forest to experience the legendary flavor of world-famous Dominican coffee. Meet local farmers, hear their stories, and learn the ins and outs of coffee production, from bean to brew. Your participation helps to support economic opportunity for hardworking families, increase income and wellbeing for coffee growers, create employment opportunities, and keep families and communities together. Enjoy a cup (or two) of joe -- perhaps the finest coffee in the world. And you can put all your caffeinated energy to work, if you're so inclined, by planting some coffee seedlings and taking a turn at roasting the beans -- an up-close look at the origins of your favorite morning ritual. You love the flavor and aroma of truly great coffee; now you know what the buzz is all about.
At a beautiful mountain lodge, you'll be treated to a delicious lunch.
Notes:
Wear comfortable closed-toe walking shoes. Not advisable for guests using a wheelchair or for those with mobility limitations. Shade is limited; to avoid sunburn, wear light, long clothing suitable for use as a cover-up. Bring a hat and sunglasses; wear biodegradable/reef-safe sunscreen. Bring bottled water. Bring a rain jacket. Bring local currency, as many vendors do not accept credit cards or US dollars. Minimum age is 8 years. Transportation may vary; coaches may be substituted for the open-air safari truck.
