When Tamara learned about our mobility challenges, she quickly came up with a plan B. We had a great time and were so grateful to her for her flexibility

Was a really great tour! We learned so much from the guide and host family! Got to see coffee berries growing, and to follow the chocolate-making process from cacao fruit through to the dried beans that we shelled, cooked, and ground into a delicious paste. Lunch and the waterfall were an added bonus!

This is the second tour we book with Tamara, we are simply speechless... The nature, the people and the way we are welcomed everywhere is simply priceless. We would like to thank the Sticos team for the wonderful experiences. My wife and I have always wanted to meet Indigenous people and get to know their way of life, culture and traditions better and with this tour that was possible. Thank you❤️
