Overview

Our mini Chicken Bus, a colorful, shiny, and iconic mode of transport. While regular Chicken Buses are built for 60 passengers, ours has only 20 and is used exclusively for participants, offering a more personal and comfortable ride but keeping the authencity of public transportation, the reduced sized allows us to easily move through villages that othewise we couldn't connect in the same route. These buses, known for their unique designs, are a symbol of local pride.
Our Half Day experience provides a safe and comfortable journey from village to village, allowing us to immerse in local lifestyles. Along the way, we visit family-owned workshops and community projects that preserve ancestral traditions like artisanal chocolate, loquat wine and more. Your participation directly supports these efforts and has a positive impact on local families.
