Starting in Salento you'll meet your new best four-legged friend and start this incredible tour with a relaxed horse ride down the mountainside with wonderful views in every direction. Once you've arrived at the base of the mountain you'll follow a track along a river until you come to the entrance of the best coffee Finca in the Zona Cafetera.
This is one of the best coffee tours in Colombia and so very unique because of the philosophy of the owner. She has created a Finca that is completely pesticide and machinery-free. Every part of the entire process is done by hand and you'll discover the traditional methods of growing the perfect coffee bean. You'll get to explore this wonderful Coffee Finca and find so much more than just coffee is grown here; there is a large variety of fruits as well. You'll learn the complete process from the seed to the cup, including handpicking a few beans yourself. You'll also enjoy sampling and "cupping" the coffee, which is the technique to discover the aromas, flavors, acidity, and other characteristics of the coffee bean.
Following this fantastic all-encompassing coffee experience, including a wonderful homemade Paella and Sangria, you'll prepare for your ride back to Salento. But for this trip, you'll be sitting in or standing on the back of one of the true workhorses of the coffee zone; a Willys Jeep. You'll be taken right to the doorway of your Salento accommodation in time to relax and enjoy a wonderful evening in the Zona Cafetera.
