This time, there were no participants other than me, and it was carried out one-on-one. The guide explained not only coffee but also the history of the city of Antigua, the cityscape and the historical background of the house, and I had a great time. The riding time on a bicycle was not so long, and it took less than an hour to make a round trip, so it is recommended for those who are physically uneasy.
