From Bogotá: Coffee Farm and Tequendama Falls Tour

1.Coffee Farm and Tequendama Falls Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 130 reviews · from $85Our pick

Leave Bogotá by shared hotel transfer for a guided coffee-farm visit near Fusagasugá and a photo stop at Tequendama Falls. Learn how coffee is grown, processed, dried, and roasted, then taste coffee liquor. English- and Spanish-speaking guides such as Steven, Pierre, Angel, and Juan have helped make the long drive informative and personal.

“Pierre was an excellent driver. I felt safe with him the whole time. I really enjoyed the winding country roads through the mountains. So much beautiful scenery. Tequendama Falls were stunning. Wish we had more time there to grab a bite with that amazing view, but we had to make our tour with the coffee plantation. The tour exceeded my expectations. The grounds were like a tropical paradise & Juan did a great job explaining the coffee process along with other interesting facts. The coffee & coffee liquor we sampled was delicious! All in all, a wonderful day.”

“Alejandro, our guide, is extremely friendly, well informed, committed to his community's well-being, and persistent in making sure everyone is able to understand, feels comfortable, and respects the environment. The trek was invigorating and fun. We saw beautiful fauna and flora -- especially butterflies! The lunch was scrumptious. The whole tour came off smoothly, from coordination and pick up to drop off. The length was just right for us, as we wanted to get out of the city, see the mountainous forest (including old growth!) but hadn't planned such a trip in advance and did not have gear necessary for something more strenuous.”
