Salento and the Cocora Valley will show you their best natural spots along with their traditional coffee farms and the warm people who take care of the territory. It is a great combination. So, believe us when we say it is one of those Colombian natural treasures you can’t miss.
Then we’ll head to the coffee farm. If you are one of those who are passionate about this drink, or even if you aren’t but you want to learn more about it, let us take you with the experts: the coffee growers. At the farm, you will meet a coffee expert that will walk you along the different areas of the farm in order to explain to you the phases coffee has: from the plantation, picking up the coffee cherries, taking out the bean, the washing, roasting, and grinding
Cocora Valley, in Salento (one of the places that belong to the Coffee Triangle) is one of the few entrance areas to Los Nevados National Natural Park, an environmentally protected park of snowy peak mountains. Besides, the valley was considered as Coffee Cultural Landscape of Colombia Heritage Site by UNESCO. Hike through this magic valley and enjoy some of the best views of the world. Be sure to have your cellphone fully charged, we know you’ll want to take pictures of the amazing nature. And, if you suddenly get caught by the mists and winds, don’t worry about it, that’s how weather tends to be, and it will only make the landscapes look even more magical.

The tour was excellent! Our tour guide Jorge was amazing, as a bonus he took great pictures :D We had a great time and we would recommend it to anyone! Thank you Jorge, hasta pronto!
Cocora valley was spectacular with great views! The coffee farm experience was amazing! My guide Laura was full of information and made the experience very fun!
If you're looking for the perfect coffee tour, visiting cocora, and walking around salento, this is your lucky day because you've found the right business to make that dream vacation happen! Mafe is an extraordinary tour guide and Mauricio was earlier than expected to pick us up. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot about wax palm trees and the story of the surrounding areas. The Luger's coffee farm is absolutely beautiful and it covers everything you need to know about coffee. All visited sites were magical and we didn't have to worry about anything just enjoyed the ride and the places they took us. This was a premium and worthy experience.
My two sons (15,20) enjoyed a fun and long day with our driver Daniel and guide David. Started with a coffee tour for about an hour which was enough time to learn all a great deal about coffee agriculture process in Colombia (refreshingly convenient blend of human activity working within bounds of local climate such as: no artificial irrigation, minimal pesticide use, minimal fertilization. After that, a relaxing, yummy lunch at a local restaurant followed by a hike in Corcora Valley where there are abundant photo ops. Lastly, a walk around and through quaint town of Salento where local artisans sell truly unique assortment of craft works. David spoke Spanish slowly and allowed my sons to practice speaking all day although he is also speaks English as needed. Highly recommend David (and our driver Daniel) for a day!!!
Gran Colombia Tour company was excellent. I initially inquired about the tour several months before our trip and they were responsive to my inquiries. I highly recommend trusting this tour company with your time. We added lunch to the coffee tour since we opted for the full-day tour, the food and service were excellent. We communicated easily thru WhatsApp with the tour company, the driver, and our guide, David. We stayed in Pereria and were promptly picked up in an air conditioned van and driven to the Buenos Aires Coffee Farm. We took an incredible tour of the farm, it was fun, informative and relaxing. We then went to the Corora and spent an hour or so there walking with David who described the history, challenges and opportunities for the valley. Next we stopped in Salento for a tinto and some shopping, David provided several wonderful recommendations for coffee and some history of the town. We visited in late January, do be prepared for rain, and I do mean a deluge of rain. Wear sensible shoes, on the coffee tour we were asked to pick bean as part of the experience (not a lot, like 15) to give an example of what kind of beans to look for, the fields were wet and muddy, sandles and flip flops be ware. David was a superb guide and provided the tour in English and Spanish, he loves his Country and is proud to show it off. 5 Stars for Gran Colombia!
We did this tour on a weekday, got picked up by the driver and went to Cocora valley where we saw the tallest palm trees of the world. Also we went for a hike with our smart guide Pedro who showed us the best views possible. Later on we went to the coffee farm for a coffee tour and we tasted the best colombian coffee. We finished the day with a quick Salento tour and played tejo. Shoutout to the driver and our amazing guide Pedro
It is a full day visting Salento, the Cocora Valley and the Coffe Farm Luger. It was a great experience. Thanks
Very good tour! 👌 The tour we did in Cocora, Sorento and the coffee experience was simply impressive. From the beginning, everything was very well organized, and on time. I want to highlight especially our guide, Jorge, who made the experience even more enriching. His knowledge was amazing; he explained in detail everything about the flora and fauna of the region, the history of Sorento and Cocora, as well as the geography of Colombia. We even learned about Bogotá, the coast and other cultural and natural aspects of the country. The coffee tour ☕ was also very good. A very cozy coffee farm.
Great visit. Jorge is a very friendly guide. He accompanied us all day, answered all our questions and organized a perfect schedule for the day. The Cocora Valley is beautiful and the visit to the coffee plantation instructive.
The tour went excellent, the Guide went by me at the scheduled time, the visit to the cafetal and the coconut valley were the ones I liked the most, also when I was arriving by car to each place included the Guide gave me very good information is a person with a lot of knowledge, the boy did frankly very well. It is a long but very interesting tour, it is worth it as it has the most important in my personal review to see when you go to Salento and if you do not have much time this perfect.
Excelente caminata y muy bonitas vistas, el pueblo de Salento muy bonito y tranquilo y la finca de café excelente atención
Great tour. Jefferson makes the beautiful surroundings come alive. Best way to experience Salento and surroundings.
Beautiful landscapes. Very interesting coffee plantation visit. The guide provided a great addition to the excursion with great knowledge of the flora, fauna and area.
De principio a fin el tour fue espectacular desde el servicio de recogida donde el señor Jairo en una camioneta muy limpia nos recogió en el hotel para luego pasar por nuestra guía Adriana que tenía mucho conocimiento sobre el pueblo y sus alrededores. Visitamos el valle y salento. Lo que no dice la actividad es que es totalmente PRIVADA lo cual fue muy personalizada al gusto de nosotros y podíamos parar y tomarnos fotos o comprar cosas. Recomiendo mucho el tour y espero que les asignen a las mismas personas que nos tocó a nosotros, enserio quede muy sorprendido con el servicio! No olviden tomar jugo de guanábana en el valle , súper rico y comer trucha en salento !
The tour was amazing. Our guide, Ivan, picked us up at the hotel and took us to the Cocora Valley where he accompanied us on the route and explained everything in great detail. We had a great time with him! Then he took us to a beautiful coffee farm where Gregorio showed us the whole coffee process and gave us the possibility to make it and try it. Very fun and recommended 100%!!
Amazing experience and super recommended. He came to pick us up by jeep to the Cocora Valley where our guide (Ivan) led us along different routes and showed us the peculiarities of the valley. Amazing place to take photons in heart attack views. In the afternoon, we headed to the coffee farm where Don Gregorio welcomed us. We explained from start to finish the coffee process (there are super interesting sizes that surprise) and we had the possibility to make our own coffee, which was 10!!!
We booked the tour of the Cocora Valley and the coffee farm and it was an amazing experience! Our guide Ivan accompanied us all day, explaining each uniqueness of the Valley and tell us all its history, very chevere! At the coffee farm we met Don Gregorio who explained the coffee process with a closeness and familiarity that made you feel at home. 100% recommended!
The excursion was 10!! First we were picked up by jeep and taken to the Cocora Valley. There the visit with Ivan unbeatable!! We learned a lot with him and he showed us the beauty of the coffee shaft in detail. In the afternoon the visit to the coffee hacienda was amazing. Don Gregorio explained coffee curiosities and made us a guided tour of the estate. It also gave us the possibility to prepare our own coffee from start to finish. In a word: SPECTACULAR
The guide and driver very attentive, professional and punctual. Absolutely recommended. Elmtour quite well designed and the restaurant recommended, the best in the place.
An unforgettable experience! We were delighted and especially our guide David, who kept us all the time with a smile! Great.
Excellent experience to learn more about the coffee culture of Colombia. Highly recommended for all those who love to learn and enjoy good coffee
