coffee class
We had a fantastic experience with this coffee class in Antigua! Marco was our instructor, and he was excellent—knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and happy to answer every question we had. The class started with a very interesting presentation explaining how coffee is grown, harvested, processed, and ultimately prepared for drinking. Marco did a great job of making the information easy to understand and engaging, even for someone like me who wasn't really a coffee drinker. One of my favorite parts was the hands-on brewing portion. Marco showed us several techniques and tricks that we can easily use at home to make better coffee. We also had the opportunity to taste coffee prepared using several different brewing methods side by side, which really helped us understand how much the brewing method can change the flavor. I actually booked the class mainly for my wife, who loves coffee, and because I wanted to learn how to make better coffee for her at home. I wasn't expecting to become a coffee fan myself—but the coffee was so good that I may actually start drinking it! This was a fun, informative, and very worthwhile experience in Antigua. Whether you're already a serious coffee drinker or simply curious about how great coffee is made, I would highly recommend this class. Marco made the experience especially enjoyable and memorable.

Best ways to learn how to make and appreciate artisanal coffee
Really appreciate that it wasnt cancelled for only me, 1 person, in the workshop. The instructor knows a lot about coffee, and the way of preparing coffee. We have tried brewing two different beans in two different ways. Great experiences. BTW pleaee take note that the workshop is taken place close to the colonial travel agency. There is no pick up service. Better to confirm the location the day before.

Great Experience
This coffee workshop was great! We loved learning about the different coffee-making methods and getting the hands-on experience of doing it ourselves. It also helped that the location was near the center and easily accessible to other must-see places in Antigua.

Great relaxing morning activity in Antigua.
We had originally thought about a farm tour, but that didn't work with our schedule. This coffee workshop was a great alternative for sampling Guatemalan coffee while learning more about cultivation and brewing. 14 year old found it alright as well.

A fun morning learning about Coffee!
This class was fun and very informative! We first took a walk to learn about the origin of coffee in Guatemala, then they did a presentation for us and afterward it was a very hands on class learning all different techniques and ways to make coffee. We then tried each cup! We learned way more than we thought we would! It was definitely a fun activity to do in Antigua!

Coffee Workshop: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Antigua.
How much does Coffee Workshop cost?
+
Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Antigua usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Coffee Workshop take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Antigua is not rushed.
Is Coffee Workshop worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Antigua, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Coffee Workshop?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Coffee Workshop suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Coffee Workshop?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Antigua can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Antigua and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Coffee Workshop start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Antigua within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Antigua?
+
On Outty we rank every Antigua experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Coffee and Gastronomic Bike Tour in Antigua, Antigua ATV Mountain Adventure, Antigua ATV Sunset Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Antigua?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Antigua?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Coffee Workshop?

Where is the meeting point for Coffee Workshop?
+

What languages is Coffee Workshop offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
