San Rafael Coffee Tour

In this coffee tour in San Rafael, we'll visit a coffee farm to learn how this aromatic product is produced.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll meet at Calle 32 in Guatapé and proceed to a coffee farm located in the San Rafael area.

Upon arrival, we'll walk the 5-kilometre trail (3.1 miles) to the farm. There, we'll receive a drink before starting the tour through the hacienda, during which we'll learn about preparing Colombian coffee.

The tour begins with a visit to the coffee plantation, where we'll observe how the plants are planted and cultivated. We'll spend about 20 minutes learning about the harvesting process and will have the opportunity to pick coffee beans.

The next steps include washing, drying, and then roasting the beans. After roasting, the beans undergo threshing and are ground. The resulting coffee powder will be packaged, with some used to create a coffee-based drink for tasting at the end of the tour.

Finally, we'll return to the vehicle, which will take us back to Guatapé. Arrival is scheduled 4 hours after pickup.
