  A really good experience and a cosy bike tour outside the local cities of Antiguas. We visited churches, coffee plantations, chocolate factory and around in the local towns. With a skilled tour guide and a solid mbt bike, the tour can definitely be recommended.

  Our tour was perfect. We had a two-day volcano backpacking trip booked for later in the week so we wanted a relatively easy bike tour. Old Town Outfitters set us up with the perfect outing. The ride was long enough to feel like we got some exercise but not taxing at all. The bikes and the gear were all high quality. I really enjoyed getting to test out a Kona full suspension! Our guides Francisco and Diane were super knowledgeable and engaging. They made sure we had a great time. Highly recommend the tour of the coffee plantation and Old Town Outfitters in general.

• So fun! Informative!

  Had a fantastic time on the tour of the area around Antigua, the coffee farm, and getting to meet wonderful people along the way. My tour guide was the best, she was kind, helpful and took great care of me while biking and touring the area. 10/10 would recommend

  Amazing experience! Bike riding through Antigua was beautiful and the visit to see how coffee was made with lunch with a local family was great too. Highly recommend. Good people.

  I'm so glad I signed up for this! I chose to do the tour that visits a local coffee farmer instead of a plantation, and even though it's pricier I definitely felt like it was worth it! I was the only one on the tour and it started with a mountain bike ride through Antigua out to the neighboring town to meet up with the coffee farmer. Oseas was my tour guide and he was great! Extremely knowledgeable about the history of Guatemala. We met up with Fredy and a translator (wish I got his name because he did a great job!) Fredy showed us the farming co-op and explained how they grow & roast coffee beans. We ended the tour by visiting Fredy's home where his family cooked us lunch and we spent time talking and enjoying coffee! It felt like a personal, inside look at life in Guatemala and their coffee industry and I felt very grateful that Fredy and his family welcomed us into his home. It was a very special experience and I would definitely recommend it!

  This was one of 3 trips/tours we did with Old Town Outfitters. This is a great way to see the beautiful buildings and scenery. When you are in a car or bus, you cannot appreciate the beauty. Pablo was our guide. He was excellent. He is from Antigua and very knowledgeable about the history of the town and all of Guatemala. We rode through the cobblestone streets and Pablo pointed out many points of interested. Our destination was the coffee plantation. We had a wonderful guide that gave us the history of coffee and walked us through the plantation showing us the process. At the end, we were able to taste the different kinds of coffee.

  

  

  

  

  

• Sip n' Cycle Coffee and Mountain Bike Tour

  The Sip N’ Cycle Bike Tour with Old Town was an amazing glimpse into the life of the Guatemalan coffee farmer. I had never been on a tour that was equally as genuinely informative, beautiful and easy going. You begin the ride on cobblestone and continue to cruise through rolling hills of the Antiguan outskirts where grand Colonial churches are surrounded by homes, street lamps and parks sprinkled with hydrangea. Buildings and Tiendas pop out, as you pedal by, with saturated colors and waving store clerks. El Volcan Agua stands proudly over the pueblo, as power lines break up the clouds that waltz past in an amazing glimpse of daily life. Riding through town we meet with our guide, Daniel and he begins explaining the history of the pueblo and coffee in Guatemala. We dismount and leave our mountain bikes in his house and continue on the journey to the farm. I am given a basket to hold in which you traditionally carry with your head, I proceed to use the basket to carry my own pack like farmers would carry coffee. We follow Daniel into the farms while listening to him explain the logistics and process of a coffee farm. He is a very welcoming and jovial man making it a pleasure to listen to his life’s work. To see the origins of the coffee that is so common in our lives was a real treasure. It brought meaning to the hard work and love that goes into growing and making amazing coffee. Seeing and understanding the process gave me a true appreciation for what otherwise would be taken for granted when buying it off shelves. I always feel strange being the outsider on tours but I truly felt Daniels appreciation for us and our genuine curiosity. He walked us through the farm explaining the ins and outs of his plot. We proceeded to pick the fruit and return down the mountain to Daniels where lunch was waiting for us. After the delicious meal he showed us how to separate the beans and dry them, then we then joined his wife inside where she ground and brewed the coffee for us. The tour of the De La Gente CO-OP farm was one I will always remember. I feel honored to be able to see how Daniel and his family live and have a better appreciation for the work that goes into coffee production. After the coffee tour we glide back down towards Antigua, once again among the amazing colors and sounds of Guatemalan life.

  I took the Sip n' Cycle Coffee and Bike tour with Old Town recently and I have to say that it was one of the more enjoyable tours that I've been on. The first part of the tour takes you on bike through several small pueblos surrounding Antigua and highlights the incredibly beautiful colonial churches/cathedrals in each place. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and the culture of each little pueblo. What really intrigued me about this tour was getting off the touristy streets of Antigua and off the beaten path. Getting to see and experience how the local communities are composed and how they live their daily lives was very interesting indeed. The second part of the tour was equally as stellar. We met a local coffee farmer from a coffee CO-OP called De la Gente and took a tour of his coffee plot. If you are a coffee lover, this part of the tour is definitely for you. Our guide has been farming coffee for 20+ years and his knowledge of the plant and process was unrivaled. I learned so much I had no idea about previously. Coffee is so commonplace in our lives that we never think twice about where it comes from, so it was really nice seeing this process firsthand. Being in the coffee field is very hands-on, as you are given baskets and are allowed the opportunity to harvest some of the coffee from the plant. Amazing! After actually being in the coffee field, the tour goes back to the local guides home where you have a delicious home-cooked typical Guatemalan meal. You have some time to relax and then the tour gets going again by showing how the coffee is processed and prepared for sale right there in the guides house. You even get to try some of the coffee as they cook the beans and serve it to you right off the stove! Overall, it was amazing seeing the entire coffee process and to get it from a local farmer instead of a large corporate farm made the experience that much better. All in all, this was a very laid back day filled with interesting information, local culture, and great food and coffee. 10/10 would recommend and would certainly use Old Town again for any other of my Guatemalan adventures.
