Colombia is often identified with its coffee, but what many don’t realize is that the country boasts the finest quality emeralds too. The goal of our trip is to educate you about this gemstone and the significance it holds in Colombia. You’ll learn to distinguish between high-quality and inferior emeralds, comprehend the extraction and carving procedures, and spot genuine emeralds from the counterfeit ones. Our first stop will be the Plaza del Rosario where you’ll wonder at the hustling emerald traders who remain in the plaza all day. The subsequent stop will be a workshop illustrating the mining and carving of these prized stones, finally transitioning to a jewelry outlet to observe the final selling process of these magnificent gems. We conclude our tour at the emerald museum, offering you a splendid skyline view of the city.
