A Must-See Experience: Cocora Valley and Salento
Visiting Cocora Valley and Salento was an unforgettable experience. Cocora Valley is absolutely breathtaking. The towering wax palms and rolling green hills were beautiful but the birds and wildlife were also unique and vibrant. Our guide Jhon was phenomenal. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about Cocora, he also knew everything about the coffee region and was able to provide information the coffee guide didn't even know. Also, he is a biologist and had an uncanny ability to recall every species of bird just by their calls. He could also call them (people surrounded us to witness this). He helped us locate rain ponchos in town, and some delicious pastries at a local shop. The visit to Finca Entrebusques was very interesting. We picked coffee seeds, roasted them and learned about the process from start to finish. This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Colombia and I can confidently recommend this tour.

Essential tour to know the heart of Colombia!
The tour was fantastic, thanks to the explanations of the guide Eduardo, with whom I learned a lot about the palms and all the nature of that wonderful area of Colombia! We were even offered to plant a tree, to leave our mark there. The views of the Cocora Valley are beautiful, as well as the colorful streets and architecture of Salento. It is an essential excursion to enter the heart of Colombia!

Must see this beautiful place
This was our second visit to this area and a first for our two grown kids. It was just as beautiful as ever.
Pictures don't do it justice.

Colorado Valley and Salento Family Experience
Gustavo led our family on a scenic and educational tour of Cocora Valley and Salento. We hiked in the valley and saw the breathtaking diversity of the surroundings. The wax palms, the condor, parrots, and flowers were beautiful. Gustavo was very friendly and knowledgeable, that also has a cinematographic eye with the pictures he took for us.

A Perfect Day!
Gustavo was our tour guide for the day and did a fabulous job. We started off at a family coffee farm and Anderson was our guide. He brought the whole experience to life and made it so interesting! We even got to pick coffee beans. After experiencing the coffee farm we headed to the town of Salento and Gustavo helped us find the souvenirs we were looking for. You could easily spend a whole day there...lots of shopping. We then headed to lunch after we left Salento and it was delicious. They even had a special lunch for my mom who is vegetarian. After leaving lunch we headed to Cocora Valley. There are no words absolutely breathtaking. We did some hiking and Gustavo told us the history behind it. He also took some fabulous pictures for us :-) Highly recommend this tour. From them picking us up at our resort/hotel to dropping us off everything was very well organized.

A must, 5 stars!
5 stars! The trip was very well planned and our guide, Juan, was super friendly, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable about the local plants and birds, and the history and conservation of the beautiful places we visited.

AMAZING guide and tour
We were picked up on time at our hotel in Salento for our private tour for 2 people. Our guide Gustavo and driver Hernan were exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for a more professional and engaging experience. We never felt rushed at all. We took our time at the end of the hike to the wax palms and spent about 30 minutes relaxing and taking in the view. Lunch was amazing. And the coffee experience was very informative. I wouldn’t do this with anyone else - one bit of advice - request Gustavo as your guide!! You could tell he loves his job :)

Best Salento Tour!!
Yasmin was a dream! So patient and kind with us—despite us being 30 minutes late for our start! A true angel. Our hike was absolutely beautiful, as was the coffee tour, and Yasmin customized to add in some time for us to play a game we were dying to try (tejo) as well as buying chocolates! Thank you for putting up with us goofballs, Yasmin! You were amazing!!

Amazing experience
Ivan was our English speaking guide. He was awesome! So knowledgeable and friendly. He went out of his way to customize the experience with parts he knew we would love. He was patient and overall a wonderful tour guide. I look forward to visiting again and taking one of Ivan’s other tours! Must do!!!

Coffee tour
Wow, wow and wow!!! That’s absolutely fantastic trip . Gustavo, our tour guide was amazing. To say we love it is to say nothing. From the very beginning of picking us up to the very end it was absolutely unforgettable trip. I haven’t met such a kind and knowledgeable guy as Gustavo. Thank you thousand times for great experience. We’ll be back with friends very soon :-)

Unforgettable Experience. HIGHLY recommend!!
What a wonderful experience. Starting with communication, Diana was very helpful and responsive.
We started our tour right on time by being picked up at the location of our choice. First, we traveled to the valley of Cocora. our guide, Jhon Took the necessary time to talk to us about the local area and the history of the valley. He was extremely knowledgeable on birds, landscape, the very tall wax palms, and we prayed to see a condor. Jhon was on the lookout the entire time and suddenly the condor appeared. many people from the area spend their entire lives without seeing one due to their endangered status. He was very patient with me especially due to my difficulty breathing with the high elevation. Recommend having comfortable shoes with grip if you plan to walk up the sides of the very steep hills. If you have hiking shoes I recommend bringing those for this portion of the tour.
we drove through Salento And as a personal suggestion on my part I asked to skip the stop in Salento due to a National holiday which caused heavy traffic and an excessive flow of people. This was completely a choice I asked for as I will return to Colombia at another time. After the valley we had an amazing lunch that is included in the price. The location was absolutely stunning with the most beautiful vibrant colors and the most fantastic food.
finally we went to the coffee farm. We had coffee in an open air balcony followed by the tour guide from the farm who took us on a tour of the entire process. We donned our uniforms and headed out to pick coffee. The amount of information that was provided to us on the process of coffee production was astonishing and I have such a great appreciation for what farmers do on coffee farms. This was one of the most incredible experiences I’ve ever had. Being a child of Colombian Parents I truly felt connected with the land in with my people. Everyone spoke English so phenomenally. My husband who speaks a small amount of Spanish was able to communicate freely and well with everyone we encountered. Our driver Ramiro was extremely endearing and very fun to communicate and spend the day with. When I come back to Colombia I will more than likely do this tour again because the amount of beauty and nature that I saw is hard to compare. it was definitely a major highlight of my visit and I would recommend this trip to anyone. Jhon was is extremely knowledgeable and was wonderful at answering all of our questions.
