1-Week Coffee Roaster Tour

…so much more will introduce you to the city and give you a good sense for its history. We’ll also enjoy a walking tour in downtown Medellín, where we can get up close and personal with the intriguing features of this popular sector. In the afternoon, we’ll head to the Medellín Coffee Laboratory where we will take a tour of the facilities and even partake in a coffee tasting.

…A visit to another coffee farm and production center is just what the doctor ordered. After another cup or two of joe, we’ll head to Pereira, about 4 hours south of Jericó. Here, we’ll have lunch (not included) and relax at the Santa Rosa hot springs. To finish off the day, we’ll enjoy dinner at the Hacienda San José, our accommodation for the next few days.

…one of our favorite restaurants will give you the energy to plant your very own palm tree. Day 5 wouldn’t be complete without a cup of coffee, so we hop on over to a traditional coffee farm, where we learn not only about the production, but also why Colombian coffee is king. The colorful streets of Salento invite us for an afternoon stroll before getting back into the car to head back to the hacienda for dinner.

exploring a nature reserve that features a sub-Andean forest before heading into the village of Filandia for lunch. A local historian will lead us through the town and relay the stories that Filandia has for us. In the afternoon, we’ll meet an authentic basket craftsman who will explain to us what he does and how he does it so that we can try our hand at making our own baskets. After an informative day, we’ll finish it off with a relaxing cup of coffee up at the viewpoint El Tambo de Cruces, where we can reflect on the trip and share our favorite parts. Once we’ve had our fill, it’s time to head back to the hacienda for dinner.
