Book this informative, fun tour! - Outstanding! The coffee and chocolate cafes were in the heart of the city. Lina was very informational and had a great personality. Her knowledge of downtown bogota and the history of coffee was a highlight of tour. I do not doubt there are a ton more great shops she could show but the selection she had for my girlfriend and I were perfect. Very quaint and scenic. Highly highly recommend!
Thank you for a great time Lina.

Introduction to Colombia’s artisanal coffee and chocolate scene, it’s going to be big! - Lina was an amazing guide! She is very knowledgeable about coffee, the various regions coffee is grown in Colombia, how the area it grows in affects the taste of the coffee, how the beans are prepared to how the coffee is made. She has an incredible amount of knowledge of coffee and it’s history. And not only coffee but chocolate as well! The chocolatier we stopped at last has so many varieties of chocolate from areas all over Colombia! Again where the cocoa pods and seeds come fr greatly impact the flavor profile and taste of the chocolate. And no two bars of chocolate from the same region can taste the same! Just like with wine, where it is grown and what grows around the cocoa plant greatly impact the taste! You have to go on this tour if you are love coffee and/or chocolate! You will not be disappointed! Colombia has an underrated chocolate and coffee scene that is only starting to grow, taking this tour is a must for coffee and chocolate lovers.

If you’re a coffee or chocolate lover, don’t miss this tour! - Can’t recommend this tour enough! My wife and I are both lovers of coffee and cacao and this tour was an excellent way to spend a morning touring two specialty coffee roasters and one cacao cafe. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, spoke perfect English, and helped us learn the history of the coffee and cacao trade in Colombia. It was great to learn not just about the various types of coffee bean preparation methods, but also how the brew type affects the taste of the coffee.
Would highly recommend!

Amazing experience in a fun neighborhood with an incredible guide - This was a highlight of my experience in Bogota. The neighborhood in Zone G where the tour takes place is charming, with great buildings and a fun vibe. Lena, the guide, walks you through each tasting describing the history of coffee in Columbia, the many ways of processing beans, and the variation in brewing methods. I will never drink or buy coffee the same way. Then to top off the experience the chocolate tasting highlights how even small changes in the environment change the flavors of the cacao. All this while touring a lovely neighborhood with a truly lovely guide. Don't miss this tour!!!

Colombia's Coffee and Chocolate Culture - I live in Costa Rica but I enjoyed learning about the coffee culture in Colombia and how it is unique an has its own story. The chocolate part was my favorite not because I love chocolate, but once again Lina did an excellent job sharing her knowledge about Colombian culture, and how much where the chocolate is grown impacts its flavor.

Great experience, great coffee, great chocolate! - What a wonderful experience! Lina is a great guide. Everybody who is a bit interested in coffee and chocolate should book this tour - you'll learn so much and will never again buy coffee and/or chocolate blindly afterwards. All three places we visited are super nice and cozy and I just went back to one of those cafés straight after the tour for another coffee. The two hours really flew by and I would definitely recommend this tour! Thanks Lina!
