Posted Sun Feb 10, 2008, 6:48am Subject: Coffee Tours / Sights / To-dos in Brazil
I will be visiting Brazil in a few months on business, flying into Sao Paulo. I am hoping to take a few days extra as personal time, as it is my first trip to South America.
I saw the recommended cafes mentioned by Edson (thanks!).
Can anyone give any advice if there are other sights worth seeing while I am in town? Obviously I am referring to coffee-related sights, not general tourist information. I see a few advertisements for coffee plantation visits, but they look pretty cheesy (costumed people talking about slavery, etc.).
Anything around for the more serious coffee student?
Appreciate any advice, sites, experiences, etc.
Unattended children will be given espresso and a free puppy...
