Coffee Farm Tour from Bogotá – Be a Farmer for a Day
Coffee Farm Tour in Bogotá – From Bean to Brew Escape the city and join a full-day journey into the Andean countryside, where Colombia’s coffee culture comes alive. Begin with a campesino-style breakfast and olleta-brewed coffee served by local hosts. Explore the farm’s organic plantations, learn to spot ripe beans, and see how hand-picking shapes the harvest. Participate in a workshop led by a campesina host, who grinds pre-roasted beans using an electric mill and prepares a second brew using a French press. If the season allows, plant your own coffee tree and leave a mark on the land. Enjoy a traditional Colombian lunch in a serene, open-air setting before returning to Bogotá. This immersive experience blends sustainability, storytelling, and flavor—from seed to sip.
