San Rafael Coffee Tour

In this coffee tour in San Rafael, we'll visit a coffee farm to learn step by step how this intense and aromatic product, famous all over the world, is produced.

Description

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

To get there, once we get out of the vehicle, we'll walk the 5-kilometre trail (3.1 miles) to the farm. There, we'll be welcomed with a drink to get some energy before starting the tour through the hacienda, during which we'll discover all the steps involved in preparing intense Colombian coffee.

We'll begin the tour by visiting the coffee plantation, where we'll see how the plants on which the beans grow are planted and cultivated. We'll spend about 20 minutes observing the harvesting process and be able to pick the coffee beans ourselves.

The next steps include washing, drying, and then roasting. Once the beans are well roasted, they'll undergo the threshing process and then be ground. The coffee powder produced will be packaged, and some will be used to make a coffee-based drink, which you'll taste at the end.

Finally, we'll walk back to the vehicle for our return to Guatapé, with an expected arrival time of 4 hours after pickup.
