| We are a fully licensed tour company (drivers, vehicles, and Guides) offering private tours with a Naturalist Guide. We have included three suggestions of natural and cultural heritage tours, if you wish to explore the Eastern Puerto Rico, please visit this link. |
Since 1992 we have been offering private tours to the
small mountainous towns of the western-central region,
best known as la ruta del café, the original coffee
plantation tour. This is one of the best way to discover
and explore Puerto Rican culture.
We depart from San Juan during the months of
September thru December, depending on the coffee
season. Reservations are a must since this program is
offered only on a private basis. You will visit a real coffee
plantation still in production, not a museum. Cruise ship
passenger, it takes a drive of approximately 2 hours from
San Juan to the coffee plantation; you should depart at
10:00 PM or later to go on this trip.
Tour packages include overnight in restored coffee
plantations, such as La Hacienda Juanita (Maricao) and
Hacienda Gripiñas (Jayuya).

TESTIMONIAL
Hilda,
We have all agreed that the day we spent with you was the most spectacular thing
we did on our trip and are very happy we went. We hope you had a nice time with us
as well. I'll send you electronic copies of the photos we took that came out well. I'm
having hip replacement surgery in a few weeks and look forward to doing more
strenuous activities within the next year, so maybe we can come back and do the
longer tour you offer. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and love of the
forest with us.
