This coffee tour takes you to a local coffee plantation near Lake Duluti. On this tour, you will be taken to a coffee plantation to learn how coffee is grown and harvested. From there, you will be taken to a farm to begin the process of taking the dried coffee beans and turning them into ground coffee that is ready to drink. The coffee will be ground traditionally with a giant mortar and pestle. This is always done to the beat of a local song, so prepare to sing along. Then the coffee beans are roasted over an open flame before being ground again. After the final step, the coffee will be prepared for you to enjoy the fruits of your labour.
Then enjoy a local-style lunch.
For the pottery lesson, you will be taught how to make pottery in the local way. The pottery takes a few days to harden, and we will bring your art to your hotel or residence when it is ready. If you won't be in Arusha when it is ready, you will have the option to purchase another piece make by a local artisan or have your piece shipped to you.
