About this tour
The tour begins with a hotel pickup in Pereira and a transfer to a family-run coffee farm nestled in the mountains of Risaralda. There, a fourth-generation family, led by women, opens their home and shares a tradition passed down from parents to children for decades, keeping the region's coffee legacy alive.
The welcome takes place amidst working coffee plantations, accompanied by a cup of coffee prepared in the traditional style. While enjoying the aromas and flavors of the farm, you will learn about the host family's history, their connection to the land, and the role coffee has played in shaping their identity over generations.
Before starting the tour, you will receive the typical coffee farmer's attire — poncho, hat and basket —, elements that are part of the rural culture of the Coffee Region and that will accompany the experience during the visit.
As you walk through the coffee plantations, the guide explains how a coffee plant grows, its stages of development, and the factors that influence the quality of the bean. However, the most special moment of the tour comes when each visitor participates in planting their own coffee tree on the farm.
More than just an agricultural activity, this act represents a direct connection to the land and to a tradition that has shaped the region's history. Planting a coffee tree allows one to understand the time, care, and dedication required for each cup of coffee, while leaving a symbolic mark on a landscape that continues to produce and grow generation after generation.
The experience continues with hands-on activities that offer a close look at the daily work on a coffee farm, including hand-picking coffee beans and observing some of the tools and processes the family uses to transform the beans. Through stories and demonstrations, visitors discover how planting techniques have evolved without losing the essence of coffee tradition.
The tour concludes with a cup of coffee prepared using filter methods, accompanied by homemade cake and a special surprise reserved for the end of the experience. It's a moment to share with the hosts, ask questions, and enjoy the result of a process that begins long before the coffee reaches the cup.
This coffee planting experience in Pereira is ideal for those seeking an authentic connection with Colombian coffee culture, actively participating in a family tradition and experiencing one of the most representative gestures in the world of coffee: planting a plant that will continue to grow long after the visit.
