This was a very lovely tour. Karen is a very knowledgeable and articulate guide. She gave me clear instructions where to pickup. The tour included two guides. One to pick you and drop and show on your way. And the other on the coffee estate specific about coffee plants and productions. I was happy with both.

We had an exceptional tour with Courtney. He explained the murals and even sang the songs to go with them, a lot of which we recognize. He's so friendly and knowledgeable. He also guided us through the National Gallery. Thanks so much Courtney. 👍
