Coffee Experience

When people think of Colombia, one of the first things that comes to mind is our coffee. We live in a country full of mountains, valleys, very rich soil and hard working people. All that together creates the perfect conditions for growing coffee. This has been a mayor development driver and a reason of pride for every Colombian. As a result, we are one of the main coffee producers and we grow the best soft Arabic coffee worldwide. In our Bogota coffee tour we will travel an hour and a half from Bogota and we will go down the mountains to another state located 1720 meters above sea level. At this altitude, the cold weather of Bogota changes into a temperate and damp climate, which are optimal conditions for growing coffee. This coffee state reminds us of the same architecture and traditions found at the Colombian coffee axis, and the organic plantation and production sites are still operating. During our visit we will tour the orchid gardens, we will learn about temperate weather vegetation, and enter the heart of dense crop growth. There we will witness the way fruit trees contribute to the aroma of coffee, we will collect coffee beans with our own hands, and see both the traditional, as well as the industrial process from the seed to our cup. Also, you will come to understand more about the manners and lifestyle of the coffee growers' population. Outside the farm, we will make a final stop at the villages market where you will be able to appreciate Colombian biodiversity at its best. This market commercializes in a traditional way all the exotic fruits, vegetables and herbs of the region. Also, they have a permanent orchid market featuring dozens of beautiful plants. After visiting the market we will make our way back to Bogota. Our guide will take you one of our restaurant choices according to your preferences. The options range from food from the pacific coast of Colombia, the iconic dishes of the coffee region or the typical local dishes of Bogota. After lunch you will be dropped of at your hotel or any other point in Bogota.
