Are you ready to turn your hobbies into a business?
If you’re looking for a full day trip that will deepen your knowledge of Guatemala and expose you to interacting with local communities off-the-beaten-path, this is for you. The activities take place in the community of San Miguel Escobar on the outskirts of Antigua (20 or 30 minutes), where the coffee-growing families welcome you into their homes to start the experience in a rural Guatemalan kitchen to learn to cook Guatemalan traditional dishes: Pepian, plantain mole, and tortillas on a wood-burning stove.
After lunch, a coffee farmer will lead you through their fields, explain the work behind cultivating coffee, walk you through each processing step from bean to brew, and finish the tour...

Your Antigua day trip is conducted by coffee-producing families in the community of San Miguel Escobar. It celebrates the heart of Guatemala and will allow you to immerse and connect with local communities. Start by learning to cook Guatemala’s traditional dish, Pepián the traditional way with a local family. After cooking and tasting this Guatemalan delicacy, explore the fields of a coffee farm, learn the process behind coffee, have meaningful conversations with the producers, and end the day with a freshly roasted and ground cup of coffee at their home.
