About This Tour
Roça Monte Café was once São Tomé's largest coffee producer, founded in 1858 and set high in the central mountains where the air runs noticeably cooler than the coast. This private shore excursion takes you there and back within your ship's window in port, with a route that flexes around your confirmed tender time.
A guided walk through the historic buildings, the old workers' quarters, and the coffee museum housed in the restored warehouse ends with a tasting of the estate's own coffee. It is one of the most popular heritage sites on the island, and a genuinely different pace from the coastal cruise-terminal tours most passengers take.
If your cruise ship cannot tender due to sea conditions, you receive a full refund with no forms and no argument.
