    Perfect experience

    Our tour operator Gustavo was an excellent guide. The tour was perfect and the experience on the jeep really funny. Having a private transportation was essential during the day. We saw people waiting more than an hour to get on a jeep/bus. We are happy about our chiose.

    An experience not to be missed

    The tour is as described. The guides provided very detailed information. Sunscreen and mosquito repellent recommended.

    Day well spent in Salento

    Nicholas was a good guide who showed us great views of Cocora Valley and the Buenos Aires coffee farm. The lunch was delicious as well. Don’t miss out on standing up in the Willy jeep and taking in the breathtaking views of Salento and the valley.

    We had the best day!!

    This was the perfect tour for our limited time in Armenia. The tour company was excellent and allowed us 5 min grace period in the morning since our taxi was late and we hit a lot of traffic getting to the meeting spot. The tour included a great hike allong the Cocora Valley followed by traditional lunch and finally a stop at a coffee farm for tasting and tour of the coffee making process. Our tour guide Cesar was AMAZING!! He is so knowledgeable and friendly. He really made this experience unforgettable. He was very patient with all the photos we wanted to take and answered all our questions. I would 1000% recommended this tour to anyone who wants to visit the Valley and the coffee farms. Even with limited time, Cesar made it work. They are awesome!

    Great trip

    Great tour would really recommend. We had Cesar for the trip and he was a great guide, informative and helpful. This is worth every penny.

    Great tour

    Excellent tour, well organised and fun! Excellent English and lots of time at each stop, lunch was also great

    Great but the Coffee Farm has creeps

    Tristan_H, Aug 2023
    Had a great experience the tour guides took up on a small hike that overlooked the cocora valley followed by a jeep ride down the valley to a great little restaurant with a wonderful overlook. Here's where things change, the coffee farm guide (female) was wonderful and took us around sharing the whole process. However the males are creeps. There was a group of females in our party and after the farm tour we went to purchase coffee, one of girls (25) was selecting her coffee bag and one of the males (he might even be the owner based on his demeanor) is just staring her up and down. You can tell she is uncomfortable so she just grabs a coffee bag and goes to the register to get away. Then the same guy/owner looks at the cash register guy and gives him eye brows and they nod at each other as she is checking out. He (primary male) then leans over the counter to stare at her butt as she checks and leaves the area. Watching her butt the whole time. It was so awkward and you can tell the girl just wanted to get away. The tour itself was wonderful but the Coffee Farm experience did put a damper on the whole thing. Btw the coffee farm they used was called Finca Buenos Aires

    Fun and informative

    The hike up Cócora Valley is the perfect way to spend a morning in Salento. Beautiful landscapes and plenty of photo opps along the way. Daniel was the best tour guide, he knew everything about the area. The coffee farm tour at Buenas Aires was interactive and informative. Nadi was so much fun and she definitely turned us into a couple of coffee snobs.

    Very fun and memorable experience!! 100% recommended

    Pickup at hotel was on time. Our tour guide, Juan, was amazing, very patient, very attentive to needs, made the tour very fun and memorable. Juan and the driver treated us like good friends, 100% recommended!!!

    Great but overpriced

    Jordan_D, Jan 2023
    The experience was great and we had a great time. However, this tour was 5x the cost of doing it yourself which we found out after

    Awesome day trip!

    Emma_N, Sept 2022
    I loved the views from the hike (~1-1 1/2 hour uphill with 3 photo spot stops), the horseback riding was awesome, and I love learning a bit about the coffee industry in Colombia! Riding in the back of the 'Willy' jeeps was pretty fun too :) Our tour guide was fun to talk to as well - knew so much about the area and South America!

    Informative and enjoyable tours.

    Jennifer_S, May 2022
    Our tour guides, Daniel overall and Sergio for the coffee farm were incredible. They both provided great information and were passionate about their jobs and providing amazing tours.

    Daniel was a great Tour...

    Daniel was a great Tour guide. Everything was Perfect organized and we had lot of fun. Gracias & hasta luego

    Excellent choice! The tour that has all the best.

    We took this tour on March 4th 2021. This tour has it all! Great service, incredible beautiful and interesting places. Transportation was comfortable. The tour guide in English was very accommodating and professional, the tour guy in Spanish has a lot of knowledge about the area. I am glad we were able to rent rubber boots at the valley since you really need them! wear layers, the weather changes cold and warm. The obleas with mora and queso for sale and the coconut lemonade are exquisite! Cocora Valley is an amazing natural paradise, get ready to breath fresh air and enjoy views that take your breath away. The Buenos Aires coffee farm offers a interesting coffee tour from the seed to the cup. I totally recommend this tour!

    Una excursión increíble...

    Blanca_F, Mar 2024
    Una excursión increíble entre un entorno único. Sara, nuestra guía fue encantadora y nos enseño y contó muchas cosas.

    La mejor experiencia de mi vida ❤️

    Sandra_C, Mar 2024
    Este tour vale cada peso y mucho más. Es de las experiencias más bellas que he tenido en mi vida. Los paisajes son hermosos, los cafetales, el que se incluya comida y los transportes lo hace un tour al que no le hace falta nada. Nuestro guía, el señor Juan Ramón, fue maravilloso. Nos tuvo toda la paciencia, dedicación, fue super puntual y se ve que le tiene amor a su trabajo. Sin duda recomendaría este tour al cien. Muchas gracias también a nuestros transportistas que nos recogieron en la finca donde nos hospedabamos y los que nos llevaron en el jeep 🇲🇽❤️🇨🇴

    Impresionante

    Cesar_S, Jan 2024
    La caminata fue fabulosa, con unas vistas impresionantes. Y la visita a la finca cafetal fue muy instructiva, muy didáctica.

    Increíble experiencia

    RuthMaria_G, Aug 2023
    Paisajes preciosos y guía estupendo! La visita a la hacienda una experiencia única al igual que el transporte en willyz

    Muy recomendable

    EFFROSYNI_T, Jul 2023
    Fue una excursión inolvidable y maravillosa. Excelente guía en Valle Cocora y nos gustó mucho el tour de café en la finca Buenos Aires. La comida después fue muy deliciosa en un lugar bonito.

    Un piège à touristes cette journée !!!

    Brigitte_C, Feb 2023
    Lors de cette journée, il n'y a eu que la vallée de cocora intéressante et prise en charge correcte par notre guide . Puis le guide nous a laissé et nous avons continué seuls en direction du restaurant avec le chauffeur seulement . En guise de repas soit disant typique comme il était indiqué dans le descriptif , nous avons eu un plat unique , boissons payantes et ni dessert ni café !! Ensuite le chauffeur nous a amené dans un Coffee tour à la finca Buenos aires , une fumisterie et un attrape touriste !!! Nous avons payé 122€ pour cela ...c'est juste scandaleux !! Alors que l'entrée à la vallée de cocora coûtait 10000 peso, ce que nous avons mangé au soit disant restaurant devait valoir 1€ par personne et la finca 20000 peso ...au total 10€ par personne !!

    El tour fue muy bueno. ...

    Yadira_G, Feb 2023
    El tour fue muy bueno. El guía nos acompañó durante todo el proceso y nos dio tiempo para tomarnos todas las fotos en el Valle del Cocora. El paseo en Willys fue una gran experiencia, el almuerzo incluido estaba muy bueno y la visita a la Hacienda Buenos Aires para ver el proceso de siembra y cultivo de café fue excelente. El tour es uno muy completo y vale la pena en relación calidad-precio. Altamente recomendado.
