At a coffee farm in Pereira, situated just a few kilometers from the bustling city center, a family of the fourth generation—spearheaded by women—cultivates the same soil as their ancestors did. This tour focuses on a simple yet unforgettable experience: planting a coffee tree with your own hands on a genuine farm steeped in history.

You will spend 4 hours on a functioning coffee farm, experiencing the complete Colombian coffee production process and leaving your legacy by planting your own tree on this land.

Tour Description


The journey commences with a convenient hotel pickup in Pereira, followed by a transfer to the coffee farm. Guests are welcomed with a cup of coffee prepared in the traditional style, offering an introduction to the family’s history before embarking on the tour. Prior to entering the plantations, each guest is provided with authentic coffee farmer attire —a poncho, hat, and basket— enhancing the cultural immersion for the traveler.

The guide provides insights into the planting process, harvest cycles, and the factors that influence the bean quality at this coffee farm in Risaralda. The highlight of the tour is when each participant plants their own coffee tree in Colombia on a fourth-generation family farm that has been dedicated to coffee production for decades, preserving the legacy of their ancestors.

Subsequently, the group engages with the coffee beans: hand-picking within the plantations and processing them using the original machines that the family employed decades ago, offering a comparison with modern equipment. This isn’t merely a theoretical discussion; it’s a journey through the technical evolution of Colombian coffee utilizing the tools specific to each era.

The concluding segment of this coffee tour in Pereira involves a filter coffee tasting session, complemented by homemade cake and a surprise product that is revealed during the visit. It concludes the coffee experience in Colombia perfectly, where participants engage in the entire process firsthand, from soil to cup.
