Nature’s heart - David was an incredible tour guide. He was thorough, patient, and knowledgeable. The Cocora Valley showcased the beautiful landscapes that Colombia offers. The ride in the Willy Jeep was a memorable experience that I highly recommend. The Coffee Tour was truly remarkable and is a must if you visit this region. I’m already thinking about my next trip to this region!!

He is incredibly knowledgeable about the culture, history and nature of the region, goes at a good pace and most importantly takes phenomenal pictures and knows all the best spots. I would highly recommend this tour!

Fulll day of riches- qué rico! - Peter was a terrific guide- while exploring magnificent vistas he opened our minds about the flora, fauna and history of this beautiful place. Peter’s English was great. We felt enriched at the end.
The coffee tour was a blast. We were able to pick the beans and prepared dried beans through to the end game- a delicious cup of coffee. So rewarding.

Incredible experience with a wonderful guide, beautiful views and activities. - From the first moment the experience was exceptional. The day before starting, the person who guided us contacted us and was very punctual. The guide, Nicolai, was very attentive, with countless information, curiosities and stories about the places we were, the treatment was very close and trusting, making our experience even more beautiful, pleasant and enjoyable, always attentive to us all the time, advising us on our purchases, places to visit, stores and future activities, 10/10.
The experience at the coffee farm was great, the guide and attention of Gregorio, owner of the Luger farm, was especially instructive, entertaining, pleasant, close and attentive, being able to collect grain directly, making our own coffee and enjoying it and how prepare it correctly another 10/10

Great day in Valle de Cocora and Salento - We had the best day in Cocora and Salento with Mauricio! We left early to Valle de Cocora (highly recommended to avoid the traffic) and enjoyed the hike in the morning sun. Then we went for a short walk and lunch in Salento. Finally we went for the tour of the Luger Coffee Farm, which was a lot of fun in an amazing place. Our guide, Mauricio, was super nice and flexible to all our needs; the transport was also very smooth and let us fully enjoy our day. Highly recommended !

Worth It Coffee Run - It was extremely smooth from beginning to end. I liked the hands-on experience and will remember a lot more about coffee growing and processing as a result

Experience these things with another guide - I don't know how this experience got such high reviews from everyone else on this site. Though Cocora Valley was beautiful, and I loved the coffee farm, I did not have the best experience as a single woman embarking on the tour with Juan Pablo. He is knowledgeable about everything, for sure, but disregarded my requests and made me feel uncomfortable/frustrated throughout the day due to a variety of inappropriate comments and behaviors. Not at all worth how much I paid, I wish I had just gone on my own.
