Salento and the Cocora Valley will show you their best natural spots along with their traditional coffee farms and the warm people who take care of the territory. It is a great combination. So, believe us when we say it is one of those Colombian natural treasures you can’t miss.
Then we’ll head to the coffee farm. If you are one of those who are passionate about this drink, or even if you aren’t but you want to learn more about it, let us take you with the experts: the coffee growers. At the farm, you will meet a coffee expert that will walk you along the different areas of the farm in order to explain to you the phases coffee has: from the plantation, picking up the coffee cherries, taking out the bean, the washing, roasting, and grinding
Cocora Valley, in Salento (one of the places that belong to the Coffee Triangle) is one of the few entrance areas to Los Nevados National Natural Park, an environmentally protected park of snowy peak mountains. Besides, the valley was considered as Coffee Cultural Landscape of Colombia Heritage Site by UNESCO. Hike through this magic valley and enjoy some of the best views of the world. Be sure to have your cellphone fully charged, we know you’ll want to take pictures of the amazing nature. And, if you suddenly get caught by the mists and winds, don’t worry about it, that’s how weather tends to be, and it will only make the landscapes look even more magical.

Traveler reviews
Amazing day trip!
It was one of our favourite days of our Colombia trip! The tour guide was so lovely and ensured we had a great time. Highly recommend!
An unforgettable experience of Cocota, Sorento and the coffee tour
Very good tour! 👌 The tour we did in Cocora, Sorento and the coffee experience was simply impressive. From the beginning, everything was very well organized, and on time. I want to highlight especially our guide, Jorge, who made the experience even more enriching. His knowledge was amazing; he explained in detail everything about the flora and fauna of the region, the history of Sorento and Cocora, as well as the geography of Colombia. We even learned about Bogotá, the coast and other cultural and natural aspects of the country. The coffee tour ☕ was also very good. A very cozy coffee farm.
The best tour ever

Beautiful valley of cocora
Great visit. Jorge is a very friendly guide. He accompanied us all day, answered all our questions and organized a perfect schedule for the day. The Cocora Valley is beautiful and the visit to the coffee plantation instructive.
Loved the tour
The tour went excellent, the Guide went by me at the scheduled time, the visit to the cafetal and the coconut valley were the ones I liked the most, also when I was arriving by car to each place included the Guide gave me very good information is a person with a lot of knowledge, the boy did frankly very well. It is a long but very interesting tour, it is worth it as it has the most important in my personal review to see when you go to Salento and if you do not have much time this perfect.
