Tour Highlights

Organic Coffee Farm - Choachi

Colombia is world-renowned for its coffee and there’s no better place to discover its secrets than in the lush mountains of Choachí.

On this tour, you’ll visit a local organic coffee farm tucked into the hills outside Bogotá, where much of the work is led by women who have dedicated their lives to sustainable and artisanal coffee production.

You will walk through the entire coffee cultivation process, from identifying ripe coffee cherries and hand-harvesting them, to pulping, drying, and finally brewing the beans. The experience is hands-on, immersive, and deeply connected to the rhythms of the land.

Detailed Itinerary

Departure Time: 8 am

We will begin the day with a visit to one of Bogota’s most iconic landmarks: Monserrate Hill. This legendary site offers a meaningful and unforgettable experience, not only for its cultural and spiritual significance but also for the stunning panoramic views of Bogotá that we will enjoy from the top of the hill.

Afterward, we will travel to the charming and picturesque town of Choachí, located about 90 minutes from Bogotá, where we will immerse ourselves in an authentic coffee experience. We’ll start with a traditional Colombian lunch at the farm before gearing up like real coffee pickers, wearing a poncho (a traditional coat), a hat, and rubber boots if the weather requires it, before embarking on a hands-on tour of the coffee plantation. At the farm, we will learn about organic farming practices, the geography of coffee cultivation in the region and across the country, and how these sustainable methods contribute to high-quality coffee. You will even have the opportunity to plant your own coffee tree and discover how natural fertilizers nourish and protect the crops.

Through a series of interactive and sensory stations, we will explore the fascinating world of coffee, captivating aromas, rich textures, and complex flavours that each tell a unique story. Every step, from seed to cup, is thoughtfully designed to showcase the richness of Colombia’s coffee ecosystem and its positive impact on both our health and the environment. The tour concludes with an educative talk about the various types of coffee available in the market and how to identify the highest quality beans. After this unforgettable experience, we return to Bogotá.

Bespoke tour of the highlights of Colombia with a focus on nature

Uncover Colombia put together an itinerary for us based on our love of nature, scenery, and hiking, and our desire to see some of the best the country has to offer. We loved their suggestions and we have felt looked after every step of the way - hotel bookings, transfers, internal flights, guides...

Amazing

Beatriz was a wonderful tour guide for visiting Guatape city from Medellin. She went out of her way to help me find shoes before we officially started our tour because my shoes got ruined in the rain the day before and I had nothing proper to wear. She has a clear love for the city she grew up in and that personal connection to it made the tour and information she shared more genuine and meaningful.

Colombia travel

We traveled three weeks across Colombia – from Bogotá, Villa de Leyva, Barichara, Medellín, the Pacific coast of Nuquí, the Coffee Region, Tayrona National Park, and finally Cartagena. In one word: exceptionally well organized. Excellent guides, seamless transfers, and an organization where everything worked exactly as planned.

What about it? Look no further!

We have travelled to just under 80 countries around the world, often on our own, sometimes, when the country had some problems, relying on an agency; something we decided to do for Colombia as well. I must say that UncoverColombia is absolutely among the best tour operators I have ever met. The organization is immaculate, precise and very accurate...

A professional tour operator

Uncover Colombia did a great job in arranging accommodation, transport which included 4 domestic flights and meals. Most importantly, they have assigned tourist guides who are professional, friendly and passionate. They are sometimes funny and always helpful.

Blown Away

Every detail was taken care of, the destinations are world class, communication was excellent. I would give them 6 out of 5 if I could. The guide UC booked for us was exceptional. He knew his stuff, was very good with e-bird, he was an interesting guy and an overall good bean. Our tour actually started in Barranquilla...

Tour of Medellin and local villages.

Sol, our tour guide, was amazing. We did a three day tour of Medellin and local villages nearby. Sol shared her vast knowledge of the political and social recent history of the region. She led the tour at our pace. She was lovely to be with. The driver was very cautious. It was a great experience.

Great to work with!

Uncover Colombia was fantastic to work with! We had a 12 day itinerary and everything went very well. The agency reps were very flexible before and during the trip even when we requested last minute changes. They always did their best to accommodate us. The assigned contact person during the trip was always reachable and responsive...

Great organization - even at short notice!

My girlfriend and I wanted to visit Colombia, but were late in the planning. We reached out to Uncover just a couple of weeks before our departure and they were able to organize the whole tour in just a few days, and for a more than fair price...

– David, December 2025

We highly recommend!

We had a FANTASTIC experience with Uncover. Nidia and her team organized the most magical 4-day trip to the Colombian Coffee Region. I am Colombian but needed assistance as I wasn’t familiar with the area. We went to the Cocora Valley, Rafting down a river, had a fabulous coffee farm experience and even visited a cacao farm where we got to make artisan chocolate. We traveled with our school aged children...

3 Week Tour of Colombia

We feel very fortunate to have chosen Uncover Colombia. Your guides were passionate and professional and informative, the accomodation was exceptional at every stop and most impressively, we were aware of you constantly checking in our wellbeing. We return to Australia with an awareness of Colombia’s variety, vitality and positivity.

Amazing tour with Uncover Colombia - San Agustin, Tierradentro and Tatacoa

My mother and I did a 5-day trip to San Agustin, Tierradentro and the Tatacoa dry forest/desert with Uncover Colombia. It was absolutely brilliant. The communication was great and Nidia helped us to ensure that the trip was tailored to our needs and wishes. Our driver, Jesus, and guide, Jorge, were very friendly and Jorge was very knowledgable...
