Coffee Tour with Andres
Wow! Not only was Andres a communicative and helpful guide about much more than coffee, but he welcomed us into the homes of two local coffee farmers like we were family. If you travel to Medellin, I highly recommend taking this tour with Andres!
Fantastic Experience!
I highly recommend this experience, for the coffee lovers and not, because you’ll experience a different side of Colombia and it’s flavors. I have taken away so much from this tour, and I am excited to share my coffee making techniques with my friends and family.
Thank you for an amazing time and I can’t wait to visit again soon!
Wonderful coffee farm tour near Medellin
After 5 great days in Medellin, this was the best!
This was absolutely the best tour my 28-year old son and I had while in Medellín. The beauty of the view from the plantation run by Antonio and his wife blew us away. They were also incredibly kind and genuinely happy and proud to show us (and let us participate in) the whole coffee process, end to end. They served us coffee on their balcony (prepared in different ways) while explaining their operation. The 1/2 day tour was perfect, allowing plenty of time to to enjoy the coffee plantation and still leave time for 2 other activities in the day. Andres was super helpful with translation and our short-notice arrangements, even setting us up with a driver for our eventual departure 3 days later. He was entertaining and provided interesting insight about local culture and history while driving us through 30 minutes of phenomenally beautiful countryside. Medellin Day Trips is very flexible too; they’ll combine tours to suit to your interests, and they have multi-tour discounts. Can’t wait to come back with my wife next time.

THIS IS THE ONLY REVIEW YOU NEED TO READ
He picked us up with less than 24hrs notice and took us on an incredible tour through a beautiful coffee farm. The car ride there alone was gorgeous and his conversation and company were lovely. The tour overall was fantastic, as we had the opportunity to pick our own coffee beans and intimately learn about the whole coffee manufacturing process. Andres acted as a fantastic translator between us and the coffee farms owners, so language was not a barrier at all. Lastly, we were able to try several different types of coffee roasting and share some great conversation to learn more about the farmers “story”.
Andres is not only an incredible guide, but a great throughout the tour friend. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering it!
