Travel with guides such as Angelo from the Arvi Metro Cable Station to Don Leandro Coffee Farm. Ride a horse along an old mountain path, learn coffee production, plant a coffee tree, taste several brews, and relax in a coffee steam room with a full-body massage.

“If I could give this tour ten thousand stars I would. Such a magical day, everything was perfect. Angelo was very informative and kind and made everything easy. Everyone at the farm was delightful and welcoming. The property was absolutely beautiful and we had an awesome day. The massage and spa experience was lovely and the coffee tour was interesting and interactive. The whole experience was fulfilled in a super fun and inviting manner and it was probably our favorite day in Medellin. I would reccomend to everyone!!”

Meet at La 9 Mall in El Poblado at 8:40 am, then ride to Palmitas for a family-run coffee experience. With guides such as Christian and Mateo, you’ll dress like a coffee farmer, pick beans, follow the coffee process, taste different brews, enjoy lunch, and learn about sugar cane traditions.

“La finca la Arrinconada es un sueno, una vista hermosa y un Experincia para toda la vida y UNICA! Si eres amante al cafe NO TE LO PUEDES PERDER! Mateo con mucha jcosidad nos conto la historia de su familia y como comenzaron el legado de este maravilloso tesoro, nos reimos y disfrutamos. Mi parte favorita fue vestirme y salir al campo a buscar el cafe y vivir todo el proceso hasta llevarlo a la taza. He hecho decenas de tour de cafe y nunca vii uno como este ! Gracias a Omar de Aeroturex por llevarnos y sus recomendaciones y por tratarnos con mucho cari~o.”

3.Coffee Tour, Horseback Arrival, and Sugar Cane

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 82 reviews · 6 hours · from $76

From El Poblado, travel 45 minutes into Antioquia for a short mule or donkey ride to a family coffee farm. Christian and his relatives explain coffee growing, processing, and brewing, with tastings, lunch, sugar cane, mountain views, and a souvenir.

“Excellent tour and Christian and his family were very welcoming to allow us on their property. The views were incredible, the coffee lesson was excellent. They served us lunch which was also very tasty with options for vegetarians. My only advice is there could be better communication prior to pick up as I waited about an hour after the scheduled time to be picked up. Otherwise unforgettable experience and would recommend 100%. I will cherish my experience forever.”
