Prepare for Variable Weather
Pack a lightweight rain shell and an extra layer—the mountain shifts from sun to mist in minutes.
Wear Sturdy Footwear
Trails on the estate and plantation paths are uneven and can be slippery after rain; closed-toe shoes with grip are recommended.
Hydration & Altitude
Bring at least 1L of water; the climb and highland air can dehydrate you faster than at sea level.
Respect Tasting Etiquette
When sampling coffee, sip slowly and ask the guide about processing—roast and altitude affect flavor dramatically.
