We’ll start with a relaxing drive along the coast, enjoying breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. Around 10:30 a.m., we’ll arrive at a beautiful mango and avocado farm overlooking the sea. For about two hours, you’ll learn all about how these fruits are grown in the region — from the planting phase to distribution across Europe — and how they make their way to your table. Of course, we won’t leave without tasting them! We’ll enjoy a fresh and healthy picnic featuring seasonal tropical fruits like juicy mangoes, creamy avocados, and other local treats, surrounded by an exotic landscape and stunning sea views. Please note: mango season runs from September to late November, and avocados are harvested from November to April, so offerings may vary.
