Höjdpunkter
Discover everything you need to know to become a coffee expert in one day! Your visit begins at Monte Café plantation, where you'll learn about the coffee tree—its flowers, beans, and maturity. Next, visit the Coffee Museum and meet Efraim, a young Santomean company exporting 100% organic coffee. They'll guide you through the coffee bean transformation process. The journey ends in São Tomé at Diogo Vaz shop, where you can buy local souvenirs (chocolate, coffee, pepper, vanilla...) and enjoy a cup of coffee. Lunch options (not included): Efraim at Monte Café or Almada Negreiros. Note 1: Availability may be limited on Sundays. Note 2: The Efraim workshop depends on availability. If unavailable, we'll try to arrange a visit with the local cooperative. Note 3 (cruise ship travelers): Due to a shortage of English-speaking guides when cruise ships are in São Tomé, we may merge different travelers in the same vehicle.

About São Tomé Island
São Tomé is the larger of the two islands of São Tomé and Príncipe, an equatorial volcanic island of rainforest, old cocoa plantations and quiet beaches.
São Tomé lies just north of the equator in the Gulf of Guinea, off the coast of central Africa, a green volcanic island about 50 kilometres long that rises to the Pico de São Tomé, 2,024 metres high. Portuguese navigators found it uninhabited around 1470, and it grew rich on sugar and later on cocoa. The capital stands on the north-east coast, with the fort of São Sebastião, built in 1566, which houses the national museum, a cathedral and a lively market.
Top-ranked sights in São Tomé Island: Pico Cão Grande, Praia das Sete Ondas, Boca do Inferno.
