An amazing journey on the metro cable to Parque Arvi and then a bumpy ride through the jungle led us to this incredible coffee farm. The staff were amazing. We did not expect to learn so much about how coffee is made and we even got to plant our own tree! Including our name tags so can’t wait to check in on those when we return! Which we will return! The sauna, frozen juice, cold plunge and massage were so good. We all felt so rejuvenated and relaxed afterwards! Online it says 3 hours but expect it to be an all day thing. Journey up there takes about an hour then between the market at Arvi, bathroom breaks, travel to and from and the experience in general, it was more like a 6 hour day.

This was an awesome experience. The tour guide kept us well informed and the pickup was very punctual. The coffee tour experience was fun and educational. We opted to go on the horseback riding tour after the coffee tour which was also a fun experience. Served lunch and tastings were great.

My guide was so nice, and he made me feel comfortable the entire time. If you are scared, don't be. These are professionals who know what they are doing. I honestly have never felt more secure or tranquil in my life. It's a moment, view, and feeling I'll forever remember and cherish.

This coffee tour is super informative, you learn so much! The guides are so nice and so welcoming onto their farm. Make sure you wear tennis shoes, you will be walking up rocks and mud through the coffee farm, also bug spray is a must. bring a small bag try not to bring a backpack.

Sebastian is an awesome tour guide, very knowledgeable, helpful, easygoing and fun! I highly recommend him
