About this place

Letefoho Coffee Plantation (Ainaro Extension)

Nestled in the cool, lush highlands of Ainaro, the Letefoho Coffee Plantation (Ainaro Extension) offers visitors a unique opportunity to delve into Timor-Leste’s renowned coffee culture. Guided tours take you through verdant slopes where local farmers hand-pick ripe coffee cherries, following traditional, sustainable methods passed down through generations. Guests learn about the bean-to-cup process, enjoy fresh tastings, and gain insight into the role coffee plays in local livelihoods.

This extension site is quieter and more remote than Letefoho’s main plantations, allowing for an authentic, immersive rural experience. The scenic journey to the plantation rewards travelers with panoramic mountain views and a chance to observe daily village life. Make sure to prearrange your visit, wear sturdy shoes for exploring the hilly terrain, and bring your camera to capture the breathtaking landscapes and genuine Timorese hospitality.
