Young, rich and powerful

by Experiencia Cafetera

Get to meet the pride of a region

2 nights / 3 days in Pijao and Salento.

DAY 1: Salento and Cocora Valley Daytrip

Salento is a cultural bridge between locals and foreigners that provides an exceptional exchange experience.

We will meet in this charming town to take the road towards the legendary Cocora Valley. Once we’re there, we’ll take a hike where we can appreciate the landscape and the gorgeous wax palms, known for their great beauty and magnitude. After this, we will go back to the town where we can enjoy a delicious typical lunch, trout and fried plantain (specialty of this mythical town). We will have a stroll around Salento. The municipality is also recognized for its elaborate crafts that are offered along the Calle Real. After familiarizing ourselves a bit more with the town we will visit a coffee shop where we will chat and enjoy the softest coffee in the world. If you’re curious enough, the baristas of this region will happily answer any questions you might have about coffee and its preparation. We finish on the Calle Real, among coloured facades and artisan workshops, before heading back to Pijao.

DAY 2: Wakecup Tour: Coffee tour

Not a farm visit: it's understanding coffee from the inside. Six hours in Pijao with Don Leo — who grows, roasts and sells his own — on the mountain UNESCO named a Coffee Cultural Landscape. WakeCup means waking the cup up.

Wakecup Tour is a unique way to discover the colombian coffee, considered by several blogs as Colombia´s best coffee tour, this experience breaks the mold.
During the day we will visit a traditional farm, you will taste the typical food of the farms and enjoy a private jeep ride like a local. We will visit a couple of families who have shown that living off coffee is possible by turning their farms into sustainable ventures. We will visit El Patio, where we will learn about medicinal plants that we use in our daily lives. This experience is for people looking for something more than the explanation “from the seed to the cup”, we will discover characters in Pijao who reveal to us that in Colombia coffee is made by a whole community: those who buy it, sell it, transport it.


Wakecup Tour is a bridge that brings travelers from all over the world with the inhabitants of the Andes to speak the same language: the coffee.

DAY 3: Birdwatching

In Quindío, the smallest department in Colombia, we are amazed every day by the richness of our land when we discover a new species.

Muchas de estas especies son conocidas por sus nombres comunes, o populares: El Barranquero (momotus momota), el Bichofue (pitagus sulphuratus), el Pechiamarillo (tolmomyias flaviventris). En nuestra región podemos encontrar 642 especies hasta la fecha ¡imagínense la cantidad de nombres! 

Many of these species are known by their common or popular names: El Barranquero (Momotus momota), El Bichofue (Pitangus sulphuratus), El Pechiamarillo (Tolmomyias flaviventris). In our region, we can find 642 species to date. Just imagine the number of names!

With book in hand and binoculars, we head out before sunrise, when the birds are most active, and watch all the social interactions within the bird world. If we are sensitive and open our perception, these birds will accept us into their flock.
