Perfect coffee tour for a small group - I learned a lot about the coffee process and what happens before it gets into my cup. Interesting to see different brewing options and taste the difference. Very informative and hands on tour that we truly enjoyed.

Educational, fun, interesting - My husband and I learned so much about how coffee is processed naturally and what all is involved from planting, maintaining the best conditions possible (really using the natural environment), harvesting, cleaning, drying, roasting, packaging and shipping the beans. We even got to try the coffee using various brewing methods. Our guide was really friendly, funny, and knowledgeable.

Educational, fun and an eye-opener! - I love coffee, but before this tour of Finca Casanga, I had no idea the time-consuming process it takes to make my one cup. Our guide, Martin (known as Marty) educated us and entertained us at the same time. The interactive experience made the process come alive! We left with our own bag of coffee we ground and name—Larada's Blend. At the end we sampled different ways to brew the same coffee and enjoyed the flavor of each.
I highly recommend this tour—the owners are personable and went out of their way to provide us with vital information about their finca and the surrounding area. What a hospitable atmosphere!

Coffee education at its best! - The hands-on coffee tour is a great choice anytime, a really informative, interesting, fun morning. Highly recommend!! You learn so much, hands-on picking, cleaning, sorting, roasting the beans. You leave with your own roast, just the way you like it. Enrique is an outstanding guide and SO knowledgeable. We loved this morning with the Finca Casanga family

You must go on this tour if you're in Boquete! Especially if you love coffee. - Very informative tour. Learned a lot about the history of coffee and the different types. Ric and Andi are very knowledgeable and professional. Even though it's not picking season Ric had examples of every stage of growing. He described the different processing techniques and had hands on demonstrations that everyone who wanted to could experience it. The property is picturesque and comfortable.

Enjoyable, educational, and ultimately tasty - If you like coffee, this is the tour for you. Our guide, Martin, was excellent - he was engaging and often humorous in explaining all facets of the coffee making process. You get to cook your own coffee beans toward the end of the walk-through (and take them home :-), and of course drink several varieties you've learned about.

Awesome afternoon with amazing people - Highly recommend this tour to everyone coming to Boquete wanting to learn about coffee production. Rick picked us up at their store in Bajo Boquete and took us by his car to their farm. Enrique was the best tour guide - funny and ready to answer an question. We were even able to take home a pack of coffee we roasted ourselves. Do not hesitate, do this tour!
