Colombian coffee - Great experience, learnt so much about coffee and how great Colombian coffee is. Nicholas our guide was knowledgeable and passionate about coffee, he obviously loves his job. I’m no coffee connoisseur but went on the tour as I love cappuccino and the best cappuccino I’ve had at home in the UK has always been made with Colombian coffee. Rather than booking a tour if you’re staying in Salento it’s much cheaper to use Willy’s Jeeps in the town and pay an entrance fee at the coffee farm.

A lesson in coffee - Excellent tour Daniel spent 4 hours with us showing us from berries to coffee in cup. Very patient young man with a lot of experience.
The tour agency viator used was very good with communication and setting everything thing up.
Thank you. The tour can be purchased for under 100 cop each and you can get your own ride and save a lot of money. I found that out after I booked but the tour agency was so good I stayed with them and didn't cancel
Highly recommend this tour and cafe finca

very beautiful morning - Coming to the coffee region without passing by a coffee farm is like coming to Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower! I think all fincas are the same and offer similar routes, so we chose one among many! the place within the mountain is splendid, the learning interesting, a feeling of calm and serenity, and above all full of birds, including lots of hummingbirds!!
