Start your morning while observing a variety of exceptional hummingbirds on our stop at the hummingbird viewpoint, and enjoy the scenery of the Ecuadorian Cloud Forest.

Visit a family-owned coffee plantation where we will reveal all its coffee-making secrets, and you will have another flavorful tasting of an awarded specialty coffee.

We will head to Mindo, a beautiful town located in the cloud forest, where you'll become a cacao expert on your visit to the cacao workshop. Ever had a 100% pure chocolate?
