Sample Itinerary

Day 1

Be greeted by a private guide and then transfer to the organic farm from Cuzco. Upon arrival, enjoy a refreshing welcome juice while getting settled. In the afternoon, experience a lunch of typical Peruvian cuisine infused with regional flavors. Later, discover the farming techniques used to produce exotic fruits, nuts, spices, cacao, tea, and coffee. Tastings of the food will be available to travelers according to the season. Then, learn how to prepare coffee “the jungle way," which features peeling, roasting, and grinding the coffee.

In the evening, share some sweet moments with the local community throughout dinner. Finally, finish the day learning how to drink the coffee like a local.

Overnight at the farm.

Day 2

Breakfast is enjoyed early in the morning and is, of course, served alongside a cup of exceptional coffee. With a full and happy belly, embark on another tour of the farm. Discover the cacao tree and its fruits, learn about the harvest and fermentation of the cacao beans, and then learn how to prepare a hot chocolate with organic cacao.

In the afternoon, enjoy a farewell lunch at the farm before heading back to the hotel in Cusco.

Note: Upon request, organized hikes to Machu Picchu are available for travelers.
