Jonathan was welcoming and helpful. We went canyoning and it was such a nice experience. We all had fun and they explained well since it was the first time for some of us. We spent Halloween with their family and ate breakfast with them. It was a memorable night. Jonathan is ambitious and creative and I wish his company well.

(Translated by Google) Terrible experience, starting because the numbers that appear there are not the same, but rather they give someone another number, when I called to reserve they told me that we were simply the ones who had the cabin for us, later on the road we informed them that we were about to arrive, The administrator tells us that we didn't have a reservation and that it was our fault. Very bad logistics and bad administration; This affects tourism in Risaralda (Original) Pésima experiencia, empezando porque los números que aparecen ahí no son, sino que le dan a uno otro número, cuando llamé para reservar me salen que simplemente fuéramos que nos tenían la cabaña, después ya en carretera le informamos que estábamos a punto de llegar, nos sale el administrador que no teníamos reserva y que era culpa de nosotros.

It's actually pretty high. ideal for observing the city and the natural beauties surrounding the city. The whole city was covered with fog on the day we were there. especially high altitudes. It was an interesting composition. For example, the church on the back of an ox. We were expected to understand the ordeal and suffering of the colonizers. There is usually a parking lot around. Entry is free.

Beautiful place to visit! You get to see the whole Manizales city from top of the mountain.. The monument is a tribute to the mining industry!!

This monument is composed of two separated sculpture sets. While the one at its center gives the name to the monument, it's the other one hidden at the back that made my trip worth it. This one, named "Agony" a miniature of the city layed as it was suffering from an earthquake, while the surrounding bulls withstand the blow. The entire piece is well crafted and it's a metaphorical representation of a dramatic event.

Really nice to walk around for half an hour, especially on a clear day. Highest part of the city so there are excellent views. Gliding also available here!

A lovely walk to this monument. Beautiful views and there were lots of excellent food trucks nearby.

This is a cool piece of history in Manizales Check out my amazing travel videos on YouTube @ArmyguyTravelsColombia

This is a really nice and elaborate sculpture, they have a beautiful view of the mountains! This is a must when visiting Manizales!

The Arenas Betancourt sculpture, though exceptionally beautiful, has unfortunately suffered from a lack of attention from the city.

This is the best attraction in Manizales. There are many things to admire in and around the Plaza de Bolivar. In addition, there are many coffee shops or restaurants to dine. My favorite cafe is the “Queso & Cafe” adjacent to square. I also suggest coming more than once to the square to catch sun at different angels to each monument. Enjoy!

The sculpture in the middle of the plaza is pretty amazing! It is worth visiting the cathedral and the City Hall.

Perhaps the coolest Simón Bolívar's statue in all Colombia. A classic city's public main square surrounded by gorgeous and historical buildings.

Lots to see here Dominated by the impressive church or maybe just sit in the square and watch the world go by, cafés and restaurants close by.

Located in front of the Manizales Cathedral. It has unusual statue of Simon Bolivar, an eagle on top of his body.

A wonder plaza depicting two Botero murals. It's big and surrounded by historical buildings, sculptures and the Beautiful Cathedral.

The cable cars in Manizales are a great way to get around and see the city from the high above. The cars are comfortable and the ride is 10-12 minutes. The Founders station, which is located at the town square has two stops and the final drops you off at the bus station.

The perfect transportation for daily commute and sightseeing alike that’s also very cheap.

The operating hours start from 6 am to 10 pm with the fees of 1,900COP but need to get the card before one can use the service. We thought of taking this mode of transportation to visit Villamaria and try their chorizo while admiring the view. However, throughout our stay, the town always shrouded by fog, and we didn't think we could see anything, that's why we didn't proceed with the plan.

Ticket to Estación Cámbulos next to the bus Terminal Manizales is CO$ 2.300. Station closes at 10:00pm. - 2022/08/02

Highly recommend. Such a cool experience. A quiet, peaceful, traffic-free way to see so much of the city. And cheap too!

Excellent as a means of travel and also as a touristy thing to do. The best way to get to the city from the bus terminal. Cheap and easy, 1700 pesos to ride. You get a great view of the city from the cable car.

Clean facility, gentle personnel always willing to help, and an eco-friendly, affordable, fast and comfortable method of transportation that can take you downtown from the bus terminal in under 10 minutes, as an amazing alternative to the 30 minute "buseta" ride that costs 50 pesos more.

Constructed by French and Italian architects, this site warrants a visit, particularly for its exquisite stained glass. However, the location's safety is a concern.

Gorgeous cathedral to visit! Elevator to top floor with better plaza view. Have delicious coffee & rose drink for the price of $4 to use bathroom if needs.

I happened to attend a ceremoney of marriage with my friend. The Marriage was with lot of people in spanish culture. The paintings in the church was intricate. If you go in a normal day, its peaceful & quiet.

I think it's one of the best in Colombia. Glass work is great. The cost of participating in a touristic tour inside the cathedral is 13,000 COP per person. Children are 8,000 COP. With this tour, you can also climb to the highest point of the cathedral. Inside, on the 2nd floor, there is a cafe overlooking the square. The service in the cafe is bad but the coffee is good.

Stunning gothic inspired cathedral with sculptures and beautiful stained glass

Known as the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Rosary is located right in the middle of Manizales. A vey beautiful church which is quite large. It has a tower which you can go up to to see a great view of the city.

It's an interesting place to visit, full of history and great for people who aren't afraid of heights. But the guide was missing a lot of information about the place.

I wanted to share my review of the recent wedding I attended at the Recinto of Del Pensamiento. It was truly a stunning event that I believe you would enjoy experiencing as well. The venue itself is breathtaking, set in a romantic environment surrounded by beautiful nature. The bride's attention to detail was evident, especially with the addition of plants along the private trail leading to the washroom and the pabellón building. It truly added to the charm and magical ambiance of the place. One thing to keep in mind is that if you have a limited budget, additional expenses for lighting, heaters, tables, sofas, among others, can quickly add up. The venue only provides the building itself upon rental, so extra amenities need to be arranged separately. However, if budget permits, it can be the perfect setting for a wedding ceremony. For larger weddings with over 300 guests like the one I attended, the restaurant space at the main hotel may feel a bit small for a pre-cocktail hour. In good weather, guests can enjoy the stunning surroundings, but in case of rain, it may become a bit challenging. Overall, the Recinto of Del Pensamiento is a magical place that I highly recommend considering for any special occasion. The natural beauty and romantic atmosphere create a truly unforgettable experience.

A very pleasant surprise. We went when the weather was perfect, overcast. Perfect for pictures or to take a video. Our group was the only one present so we have the complete attention of the guide. A beautiful pace to see nature, and the surrounding area of Manizales. The station of the hummingbird was amazing. Be prepared to walk in some uphill roads. You may need to carry an umbrella if a sunny day or a rainy day.

We arrived at 11 am and told we had to wait until 1pm for a tour. The price of the tour stated online was about $7.50. We went to the restaurant and explained that we needed to finish eating by 12:45 to make the tour and would we have time. They said "yes". We also asked if we could pay with a credit card and they said "yes". We ordered but by 12:30 still didn't have our food. We told them that if the food was not out in a few minutes we would have to cancel the order. They brought it out. We didn't have time to eat much and my husband went to buy the tickets while I paid the bill. Except, their credit card machine didn't work. I finally told them I needed to leave or I wouldn't make the tour. Meanwhile my husband had been told he would have to pay $22 instead of $7.50 and they only accept cash despite saying earlier they accept credit cards. Then he was told the 1pm tour was cancelled and we would have to wait until 3pm for a tour. We said we could not wait that late. Then, another person came and said the 1pm tour was on and we would be charged $7.50 and could pay with a credit card... Eventually we were able to pay for everything with the credit card. But this was only part of our experience. The recinto needs to specify that the tram is no longer functioning and visitors must walk up a long incline to get to the butterfly house and the hummingbird house. It also needs to let visitors know that they will not be able to see the orchids. This means that visitors will only get basically half of what they paid to see. Visitors go to see the orchids, butterflies and hummingbirds and to ride the tram. We were expecting the price of admission included all of what the recinto advertised. It didn't.

Huge estate (approx 350acres) with multiples ponds, restaurants & lodging.

Very nice and big parc. With all parcs like this its almost impossible to keep clean and tidy and the same goes for this parc. The cable car wasn't working when we weten here. On the upside, the parc is beautifull. Loads of plants, trees, hummingbirds, butterflies and orchids. Very nice staff who know what they are talking about during the two hour tour for a low price (€5). Great Valdez coffeeshop!

It's not a recommended place if you want to go birdwatching peacefully and explore the area. You have to pay to tour the site with a guide, which limits your experience, and if you want to enter without taking part in the tour, you're only allowed in the social areas. So, I don't think it's a good place to enjoy birdwatching.

I didn’t get to bring my doggie into the forest because “pets are not allowed”. It was a bummer and we had come a long way. We just wanted to walk around the forest but alas I was just met with dome harsh words by a lady who thought I was supposed to know about these things.

This is definitely a great Experience... The coffee tour by Mateo was great, and much more technical than we've experienced before, a very good thing. The Cacao workshop, again by Mateo, was a very enlightening experience and totally enjoyable. Both were presented in Spanish, with just a few translations offered but we loved it for our practice... Mateo is special and if you can, be sure to get him. The facility is gorgeous, clean, friendly, easy to get around once you are there ... The one trail we took for a walk offered great view... The mixture of coffee, plantains, cocao, agave, palms, bananas, and extremely wide variety of flowering plants is awesome. Above all the staff is fantastic.

This place is like a dream! If you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful retreat in nature then this place is for you! The rooms opening to the lush gardens are enchanting. The surroundings are like walking in the gardens of Eden: flowers, trees, butterflies, humming birds, the sound of water, crickets… just sit on the balcony and enjoy! The food is also regal! They served us a banana soup… I went straight to heaven. So delicious! There is a complementary coffee station available all day long, a pool, hammocks… the best place to escape from the hustles of life.

I wish I'd been able to stay longer. The entire place is incredibly beautiful, food fantastic and atmosphere so relaxing. They offer unlimited free coffee of each of their five coffee offerings, just for being a guest at the hotel, so there's plenty of opportunity to try before you buy. The cocoa workshop was a great intro to chocolate in Colombia and the farm. Hot showers (iykyk) and decent WiFi and added bonus.

What a beautiful and peaceful place this is! We stayed at the hacienda with our family of four and participated in the coffee and cocoa tours, which are both recommended. The ladies in the kitchen made us great meals everyday, so we fully enjoyed the experience.

all they serve is coffee didnt even offer for a coffee tour, wouldnt accept cash. bad place to go for a day trip. just a hotel business, they dont even allow you to go look at the rooms unless you pay for a room first. so weird.

What a wonderful place, hidden from the outside world with hummingbirds, peacocks, jasmine and chocolate cake flavour in the air ! And nature is insanely beautiful, such a diverse and peaceful place, walking around this huge domain. Will be back ! Friendly staff, only improving point is - all additional services come at quite an expensive costs.

I went to English coffee tour today and Mateo was amazing guide speaks really good English I really liked how he showed and explained us everything Whole Hacienda area is really beautiful Highly recommend ☕

I'm going through my stamps to begin planning my next trip to 🇨🇴 I'm organizing my stamps by Department who doesn't love a good volcano stamp

Amazing experience getting to know the different stages of the volcano up to the peak. Unfortunately the very top has been closed for 10 years because of seismic activity. Fantastic moor.

The staff in the park is super helpful. We really liked the experience. I recommend to go as early as possible as it gets cloudy and foggy in the afternoon.

Extremely overpriced, at least for now while the volcano is active. You drive thru the park in groups of 5 cars for about 3 miles, it's very foggy n you see the same landscape u saw on the road up here. You're supposed to stay inside your car. Forget about it.

Absolutely stunning. Not swamped by tourists, especially if you have your own vehicle. There's a good paved road to the main gate, except for the last 5km which can be driven slowly in most any car. Tours are available from Manizales or twice a day from the gate. You can also drive past the gate with your own car on the dirt road. No motorcycles allowed past the gate because of previous louts going off road and causing damage. If you decide to go around towards Murillo make sure you have a very high clearance vehicle or dual sport motorcycle. That route is definitely not for the average "tourist".

The Nevado del Ruiz also known as La Mesa de Herveo (English: Mesa of Herveo, the name of the nearby town) is a volcano located on the border of the departments of Caldas and Tolima in Colombia, about 129 kilometers (80 mi) west of the capital city Bogotá. It is a stratovolcano composed of many layers of lava alternating with hardened volcanic ash and other pyroclastic rocks. Volcanic activity at Nevado del Ruiz began about two million years ago, since the Early Pleistocene or Late Pliocene, with three major eruptive periods. The current volcanic cone formed during the present eruptive period, which began 150 thousand years ago.

It's a beautiful place and cold.

Expectacular

(Translated by Google) It is one of the best experiences of my life to have been able to climb the snowy mountain, I had to go through a lot of snow, the climb lasts approximately 3 hours but it is totally worth it, I highly recommend it before this snowy mountain disappears. On the route you can see a lot of paramo and super paramo landscapes, volcanic rock lagoons, frailejones and many mountains belonging to the Andes mountain range. (Original) Es una de las mejores experiencias de mi vida haber podido subir al nevado, me tocó en un tiempo de mucha nieve el ascenso dura aproximadamente 3 horas pero vale toda la pena, lo super recomiendo antes de que se extinga este nevado.

Wow! I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Our Lady of Poverty Cathedral in Pereira, and it was an unforgettable experience. The cathedral's interior is a masterpiece, featuring a unique roof structure crafted from 13,503 pieces of curly cumin wood, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and design. The natural brick construction adds to its charm, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. During our pre-pascua visit on Friday, March 21, 2025, we were fortunate to attend an ongoing service. The open side doors allowed for easy access, and the acoustics inside were exceptional, enhancing the uplifting and clear sermon delivered in Spanish. The cathedral's location on the western side of Plaza de Bolívar makes it a must-see landmark in Pereira. I highly recommend a visit to this beautiful cathedral to appreciate its architectural beauty and serene ambiance.

This Cathedral is amazing with the beamed roof. Incredible architecture

Nice church to be in God's presence.

One of the few places to visit while in Pereira

Just magic…!

Like any churches in Colombia, it's always beautiful! Didn't go inside though.

Cute church - nice architecture

Pereira has beautiful plazas with lots of vendors and pigeons. It’s a fun place to see locals selling their wares and get a feel for the friendly city. Plus it’s always fun to see giant horse statues. I wouldn’t say it’s an all day event but If you enjoy people watching and walking it’s a great way to spend a morning or afternoon.

Pokemon stops galore for my poke fans. Food guys there is a small coffee shop with bunuelos to die for its on the left hand side from the church. This place was awesome alot of people, decorations were nice even simon bolivar has a covid mask went @ night and in the day time safe as hell

Nice place plenty of history. Monument to Simon Bolivar

Nice place to chill and people watch.

It looks much better after the recent renovations. A lot cleaner, more tourist friendly, with a lot less hustle from street vendors. I think security can always improve, I know it would never be perfect, but it can be even more attractive for people to visit. The lack of public facilities makes it harder and more expensive as you have to pay to go to the toilet, and if you are a family it becomes even more pricey. Good choices of shops, restaurants, cafes, bars, etc. Paid, public parking available all over and available at a reasonable price. Good public transport connections and very easy to get a taxi as well.

Some cultural and historic mixing into this park, you can see how big could be someone.

In the city centre of seems to a meeting hub. Also multiple activities are held here. It's worth passing by if you have some time to waste. There is normally a large amount piggins hanging around and the favourite spot is on the statue. (Really need cleaning when I saw it) probably best to avoid it night After 9 or so the type of people change . But the is 24 police presence.

Here at this campus on exchange from France, and I must say it is a BEAUTIFUL campus. There are little cafes around to get something affordable to eat (after protests from students mind you). Very lovely

Great place

(Translated by Google) The best higher education educational center in the entire region and one of the best universities in Colombia and Latin America.

(Translated by Google) I loved the University Campus, modernized and inclusive buildings for people with disabilities and with varied architecture, which harmonizes with each of the environments. Beautiful pictographs and paintings of birds that adorn its walls, half a cake for cultural programs, a beautiful guaducto, multiple environments full of nature, science, archeology of the area and art, a connecting tunnel between the two areas separated by a road; but most importantly, friendly people from the goals to the administrative offices, willing to guide the process and an academic level of its technicians, technologists and professionals, with excellent recognition at the National level. (Original) Me encantó el Campus Universitario, edificaciones modernizadas e incluyentes para las personas con discapacidad y con variada arquitectura, que armoniza con cada uno de los ambientes.

(Translated by Google) The UTP is one of the most important universities in Pereira, since it is public and has a large campus and offers a variety of programs. The place is very pleasant, the library is large, its location is very good and easy to get to, it has many ecological trails, it has a great landscape, the people there are very diverse, the people there are from different cultures.

Absolutely worth the trek to visit. It is beautiful. You can tell they truly care for the animals. The birds exhibit was my favorite. It rained in us all day but we did not even care. We had a lot of fun. The staff was wonderful. All the animal exhibits had the animal information in both English and Spanish, so I did not need to translate for my husband which was wonderful. We will come back next time we r in the region.

Amazing zoo park, with surprising and beautiful animals! The place has restaurants, beverages and snacks, be ready to walk a lot and bring enough water!

Great place for the whole family! Only downside is that we were a group of 11 and one senior on wheelchair and even though the zoo provides wheelchair the roads are not handicap friendly, we had to help between 4 people to get out senior down the hill a few times because it was impossible for him to do it himself.

Good place to spend 2 hours. Wish the upkeep was a bit better

Amazing place, all animals looks in really good shape, it is a good place, everyone should visit it

Would not visit again. Purchased tickets and person that takes the tickets spent 5 minutes explaining where to start ect. All while carrying our puppy in his bag. Walked half the park. Then an employee stated there are no pets allowed. Yet, the park is full of stray dogs. Make this make sense? The place is over rated. There is a ton of walking and a ton of empty exhibitions. The hippo exhibit had fish in it. The hippos were in another place. The actual park is huge. Some parts you walk on mud/rock/unpaved roads. I would not say this is friendly for people with mobility issues. The animals they do have are nice. They seem to have space to move around. Staff is rude. There are people at some of the exhibits but no one really speaks to you unless you ask something. They do have a great food court but it is overshadowed by the stray dogs sitting next to you or roaming while you eat. If I had never been to any other zoo in the world, or animal sanctuary, I would give this place 5 stars. But unfortunently I find its high praise over rated.

Amazing experience. First I gotta say: go as early as you can (they open at 9am) or else you will see half of the animals asleep. Bring anti-mosquitoes lotion + sunscreen, there's a good portion of the walk you will be doing in open areas. The good care of the animals it's noticeable, we enjoyed the time spent there. One last tip: don't take the alternative road, just go through the main road entrance (or you will end up in a one-sided way inside of a neighborhood).

Beautiful park with lots of attractions. The wave pool is very popular. The kids can enjoy the kids' pool as well. There's a farm with many kinds of animals and a long trail surrounded by beautiful nature. It's recommended to visit the park early during the day in order to enjoy everything. Also, it is better to go during the week as it's less crowded. Be prepared to have documentation ready for everyone entering the park. It's a requirement to register every person that enters the park!

It is a great place to go on Pereira with lots of things to do.

Wonderful park with beautiful animals, flora, and swimming pools. All about nature 😄

Bit rough around the edges but Awesome value for money! We aren't locals but if you are it's alot cheaper. Nothing is in english.There are lots of pools scattered around the park so you can walk the whole park in togs and swim in random places. You need to pay an extra 2000 pesos for the Rio lento tube river per ride. Loved the bamboo tour, they only open if the weather is good. Loved the farm. Food was tasty and affordable, your typical Colombian meal beans rice chicken fillet coleslaw with soup and a juice for 18000 pesos at the restaurant, all restaurants serve same food except the restaurant by the farm and the consota cafe. They have a little shop there you can buy stuff similar to a gas station. You can rent bikes inside. Lots of different mini sports stadiums and a roller blading rink. I think you can get through everything if you go early. Cafe consota had good coffee and a different menu. We got there at 10am and left at closing 5pm and experienced everything except the indigenous tour which was closed. No tourists there except us, it caters more to the locals. Kids had a blast.

Lots to do and full of nature experience. The people at the farm were great. Very welcoming and coffee was delicious

Great place . Make sure to apply sunscreen or sun block and really bad sun burn .

Love the place, have a lot of venues places to eat and have different sport activities . It's really good for family getting together

Super

Mucha paz se respira en este centro de congregacion religioso.

(Translated by Google) I could only see the church from the outside because it was closed that day. The front and surrounding areas are photogenic. Near the church you can park on the street but not on the main road. (Original) Solo pude ver la iglesia por fuera por qué estaba cerrada ese día. El frente y los alrededores son fotogénicos. En cercanías a la iglesia se puede parquear en la calle más no sobre la vía principal.

We had lunch here after a hike up the mountainside. We were all a bit disappointed by the food. We had heard that the area was famous for their fish, but it was honestly nothing special. As for drinks, their lemonade de coco was just bad. We didn’t even drink the two we ordered. The service was friendly enough, though they seemed rather absent. Overall, I’d try another place next time I go.

Food was bad. This is the first time that I couldn’t finish what was ordered. Best thing was chorizo, the Trucha was nothing special, and the steak was overcooked and tasted bad (seems like it was of a poor quality). We would have left attributing this to a tourist experience but what was disappointing was the feeling that there was something dishonest happening. We were asked to pay cash for a menu item that was left off our bill. Not sure if this is a common occurrence in Valle Cocoro, but I’ve never had to pay cash for a menu item when the other items were paid by card.

This is a MUST!! The food was absolutely outstanding, the steak was all fresh and served in a platter that kept the food hot. The service received from our server, Daniela Duque, was absolutely outstanding. She suggested an amazing passion fruit dessert and was always attentive to our needs. This is the second time we come and will continue to come.

Best atmosphere I've eaten at, nice to get food here after a long hike

The Food was very good as well as the service and of course the amazing view!!

Food was amazing, the service outstanding. Herney took really good care of us, he was kind and helpful, the company is lucky to have him as an employee.

We ordered a punta de angus black and it was the worst meat I’ve had it wasn’t cooked how I ordered maybe because it was just fat and hard the knife couldn’t cut through it, to be the most expensive item on the menu it was easily the worst I wouldn't give it to my dog, the rest of the food was alright but nothing special the service was good but wouldn’t return just for the service.

This was one of our favourite things to do in Colombia. If you are visiting the Salento region this is one of the places you should definitely visit. Make sure you get there early in the morning. It starts to get busy around 10:30AM. It is also more likely to rain in the afternoon, mornings are usually clear. We started our tour around 8AM. You can choose to do the walk on foot or take a horse. Since it was quite steep and muddy we picked a horse tour. If you have a good endurance you can also do it on foot. There are several viewpoints and the scenery is amazing. The palmtrees are the highest in the world and all other hillside are full of beautiful trees and flowers. It does look like something out of a fairy tale. The viewpoints can get busy later in the morning and you might have to wait in line if you want specific pictures. Still, we wouldn’t want to have missed it. Make sure you bring multiple layers (but not too much since you will get quite hot walking uphill), hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and water/snacks. Toilets are available at the entrance for a small fee but not in the valley itself.

Visiting Valle del Cocora is an unforgettable experience. The scenery with the giant wax palms, green mountains, and natural trails looks like something out of a postcard. It’s perfect for connecting with nature, hiking, and taking amazing photos. 👉 Tips: go early as it gets very busy, wear comfortable clothes and shoes, and bring enough water since the hikes can be long. Without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places in Colombia’s Coffee Region.

Beautiful place! The horse ride is a great experience but optional. You can still go up the mountain without the horse ride. It is just a long walk uphill. There are three different entrances with three unique things to admire and do. The three entrances have separate prices. The most common ones are the first and second. The first one is to your right as you go up the road. It has colorful signs and decorations for pictures and different levels uphill for a great view. It has a parking lot next to it, a restaurant, and shopping little spots. The second entrance is up the road (5-7 mnt walk). There's also a parking spot, but no restaurants. This one is a taller mountain with great views, and if you make it to the top, you'll see the HAND. Built to stand up on it for pictures surrounded by beautiful views!

Not my favourite hike. Might as well have a holiday home at the base. For all that it's not signposted very well...at all. Handily no one was at the information point. What is the point in a sign telling people they have only 30 seconds to take a picture if it is only in Spanish when everyone ignores it anyway.

Cocora Valley is one of the most beautiful places in the entire country. Even after being there a whole day, it’s still unbelievable that palm trees that tall actually exist. The place is already pretty magical with just the palm trees, but they have also added some real eye-catchers that are so fun to photograph. My two favorites are the absolutely massive Colombian flag and the floating hand at the top of the hike. The hike is of moderate difficulty, so pretty much any family can do it together.

Sad to say that such a famous tourist destination has these kinds of conditions for visitors. On a rainy day, which is very common here, the entire access area turns into mud, and you literally sink in it. If this were along the hiking trails, that would be expected, as adventure travelers are used to it. But finding these conditions right at the center of the site, at the starting point, is completely unexpected for many visitors who simply want to get to know the place. Thousands of people visit this area, so it should really have at least some basic infrastructure, like a paved access road, and more comfortable and inclusive facilities for people with limited mobility who also wish to experience this incredibly beautiful place. It’s not the only country where I’ve found such unpleasant surprises at major tourist spots, but this should be taken into account for improvement. Valle del Cocora is still a "must see", for the views, the photos, and the experience of being there. Just keep in mind that you’ll need proper clothing and footwear, because rain is very likely.

One of the best places to visit in Colombia. The full hike is fantastic and worth doing. The palms and the environment are unique and otherworldly at times. We arrived as early as possible to beat the crowds. We had our own car and the road to the valley was completely paved and easy to navigate. The early morning was the best light for the park in my opinion. We did the full counterclockwise loop hike that goes first through the jungle and ends in the palm valley. It took about about 6 hours to complete with a few rest stops for snacks and lunch. The full counterclockwise hike is strenuous enough that you should only do it if you are in semi-decent shape. There is a lot of up and downhill including one particular tough climb to get out of the jungle. You do need to keep your balance on rocks along and on the river which sometimes are slippery. The scenery was varied and beautiful, starting with going through trenches in the valley with some overly friendly cows, to a forest/jungle setting crisscrossing a river on multiple bouncy bridges, to climbing misty hills, to finally overlooking the tall majestic palms that we all came to see. We were lucky enough to see condors from the viewpoint as well. The descent through the valley kept amazing us with scenic vistas when you would hit different angles. The only thing I would change about the park would be to take out some of the instagram artwork that litters the entrance/exit of the park. I understand that these are draws for some people who want a more colorful photo to post but there really is too many of them and the trees and setting really are nice enough. The only advice I can add is to rent the boots if you are doing the full hike. I went with my normal shoes and they ended up in puddles, mud, and then the river. It is basically impossible to avoid, especially after rain which is often in that area. I had muddy shoes that wouldn't come off for the rest of my trip. I dont know how much boot rental costs as I didn't ask but I saw a lot of other hikers wearing them and I would suggest it.

Our Lady of Carmen in Salento is a stunning Catholic church located in the main square, surrounded by shops and restaurants, making it a focal point of the town. Its unique architecture and beautiful stained glass windows, along with a courtyard museum of the catholic faith in the area, reflecting the rich culture and traditions of Salento. The church is always clean and welcoming, with posted mass times and ringing bells that draw both locals and tourists. This charming parish, dating back to the early 20th century, embodies the spirit of the community and is a must-visit for anyone exploring the picturesque town of Salento.

Beautiful local community church. Feels like a warm and welcoming church.

Nice church to visit!

Excellent Catholic Church in the main square of Salento. Mass times are posted out side and they’ll also ring the bells. Very kind folks attending mass and working at the church.

Beautiful and welcoming. It appears that they have a fairly open door policy. Great centerpiece to the Salento plaza. It is very photogenic, and can be captured against the mountains and plaza. The place is beautiful both inside and out.

Good food, better people! You can find many activities to do around town from there.

Beautiful old church right on the main square. The doors are open.

We did not spend the night there, but went on a guided tour with Carlos to get to know the forest which surrounds the eco-lodge. He is very knowledgable and we learnt a lot during the 2 hour long tour. We should have booked a few nights there, it looks fantastic!

We did the Jungle Hike and it was a truly wonderful experience. It was very interesting to learn about the cloud forest ecosystem. All our questions were answered to the fullest and we even got to see some hummingbirds and beautiful butterflies.

My husband and I didn't stay the night, but we did the walking tour. Carlos is very knowledgeable and passionate about the environment and conservation. Tour is 50000 per person and well worth it, usually it goes for 2 hours but we talked about all the ways we can save the world. All the money seems to go to protecting and growing the reserve as well. Good luck to them in the future. Hopefully, this becomes a great educational tool for tourists.

I didn't stay here, however my friend and I joined a tour of the cloud forest with Carlos which was fascinating and a great thing to do on our first day in Salento. Carlos is clearly passionate about preserving the ecosystem of the area and has put a lot of work into his project. He is very friendly and remembered everyone's name throughout the hike. Would highly recommend the tour! Please note that it can be muddy and you should wear hiking boots and a good rain jacket.

Kasaguadua is something truly special. Getting into the jungle feels like an adventure in itself—a short trek that instantly shifts your mindset into nature mode. Totally worth it. Once you arrive, it’s like entering a secret world, and in our case, we had the entire place to ourselves for a full day. Absolute magic. The grounds are beautifully preserved, with winding paths, hidden viewpoints, and the constant soundtrack of the jungle all around. The huts are designed with sustainability and comfort in mind—open, airy, and totally in sync with the environment. You feel connected, not just to nature, but to the intention behind every detail. Whether you’re hiking through the forest or just lounging in a hammock with a view, Kasaguadua is pure peace.

Wow - what an incredible experience. We took the two hour tour with Carlos ( it was just the two of us so it was essentially a private tour !) and left with a whole new appreciation and understanding not only of the complex ecosystem of the cloud forest but also of the ethos and philosophy of Kasaguadua. Carlos is so knowledgeable and passionate about the reserve and communicates his expertise in an engaging and authentic way. He is also a lovely person and we left feeling we had made a good friend ! Thank you Carlos for this wonderful experience - we only wish we could have stayed in the reserve! Róisín and Tadhg

This is the best place we stayed at in our whole South America trip of 8 months. It’s a really special place and it was great to stay here for 5 days to learn all about the place’s wider conservation project too. I’d recommend this a thousand times over staying in Salento, and I’d also recommend renting a scooter to get easily to and from Salento. We fell in love with the place and its surroundings and took notice of all the effort that has been put into the details of the decoration and the hospitality that form a truly curated experience. We felt very pampered and Willie is a truly brilliant host. There’s a delicious breakfast included every morning in the stay too.

A coffee farm on a human scale. The welcome was warm and the tour very interesting. You'll learn all about coffee, the different varieties, cultivation and production. At the end, you can try the finca's coffee and buy some if you like. Be sure to bring mosquito repellent, or you'll be eaten!

Excellent day out. Incredibly interesting tour from Sebas. Coffee afterwards was amazing. Great view whilst enjoying perfectly made coffee! Would heavily recommend going. We did it as part of a horse riding trip which again was fantastic.

Such an insightful and beautiful coffee tour available here! The tours are available in Spanish and English and are great value for money! You are able to learn and see each stage of the process for harvesting coffee. We had a great time here and the coffee was delicious!

Absolutely amazing tour (in English). Our tour guide was friendly, patient,and incredibly knowledgeable. Las Acacias is a coffee farm that goes back Generations- they truly understand the entire coffee process and the coffee is delicious.

Sebas made our experience here so memorable - he was incredibly enthusiastic and insightful. It’s a small, family run, traditional coffee farm & tour, however this didn’t affect the level of experience and knowledge they could share. The tour included a walk around the farm, picking, grinding and tasting our own cherries - finished off with a gorgeous coffee of choice made with the beans from the farm. Super good value for money!!

We had a tour of the farm with Christhian today. He was so friendly and so knowledgable about coffee and the region and was happy to chat about Colombian history more widely. Coffee tasting was included in the price - couldn’t recommend enough! Thank you

We did the English tour with a great guide, that we recommend 100%. It was a 1h round, just enough to understand the basis about coffee production. Then, we enjoyed a good espresso in front of a stunning view and cute birds. Enjoy it💛💙❤️

No restaurant was open on a weekday. I don't know how a business can survive working weekends only. The good part was that we're zero traffic...zero food

ITS A NATURE AND ADVENTURE PARADISE JUST 15 MIN AWAY FROM THE CENTER OF IBAGUE, TOTALLY RECOMMENDED IF YOU WANT AN ADVENTURE IN THE MOUNTAINS AND WATERFALLS OR JUST CHILL WITH TE SOUND OF THE RIVER AND BIRDS SINGING

A wonderful place, full of trees, many species of birds.

The sweet nature surrounding the area make a pleasant time. Beautiful restaurants aswell.

Nice canyon, so much ecoturism, and restaurants

Such an incredibly beautiful place a must visit when you come to Colombia

Super plan!! 🗺️

We had a fantastic time as a family, and my little one absolutely loved it! It’s great that you can bring food and water inside—very convenient. The pig show was a delightful highlight, full of laughs! If I could make one suggestion, it would be to add more bathrooms along the way, especially for families with little ones who might find it tough to wait. Overall, it was a wonderful experience!

Lots of activities, mostly for the young ones, a variety of shows around the park (the negative point: the time schedule of those shows not always match your own). Be ready to walk, is huge. Take a hat or a cap with you, heat and humidity is massive there. The thing that you can't miss: El trapiche, where they sell cold "Mazamorra" with solid melasa.

It is a great park for kids, my kids (6 and 2) enjoyed every minute of it. They provide a kind of an off road stroller (12.000 COP) so you can carry your kid. The shows are great and they are scheduled so as to go with the tour, so you don't have to go around, just follow the path. The stand up comedy show is not as fun as you would think, since it is a couple arguing about everything. My recommendation is to try to go on weekdays so you can move around without problem. Restaurants are ok and not expensive, you can take fruits or small snacks and maybe a couple of water with you,

Okay place, a bit on the expensive side. I went on a weekday so it wasn't as busy but not as lively as expected. They have tons of farm animals and some shows. Expect to walk a lot.

PANACA: Where the cows are friendlier than your in-laws and the goats have more attitude than you. From the second we walked in, it was like National Geographic met Colombian farm life — but with snacks, laughter, and a whole lot of mooing. We fed animals, milked cows (spoiler: it's harder than it looks), and I’m pretty sure one goat tried to adopt me. The animal shows? ICONIC. I laughed, I cheered, I questioned my career choices. The views? Straight out of a telenovela. The air? So fresh I tried to bottle it. The food? Don’t even get me started — I left with a full belly and zero regrets (except maybe not wearing stretchy pants). Whether you're a kid, a grown-up pretending to be mature, or someone who just really wants to hug a donkey — PANACA is the place. 10/10 would let a llama photobomb me again. 🐐📸🇨🇴🔥

Many years ago there were more animal acrobatic shows. It might be due to animal protection laws. Now the small animal show is mostly just two people doing comedy. It's very good except that international tourists get a little lost if they don't speak Spanish.

Beautiful. The shows are especially beautiful. We went to all the afternoon shows which were spectacular. Our kids were enchanted. Also very large place so best to come in sporty and light clothing for all the walking. They have tours, which we didn't do but I am sure it would have made the experience better.

Very fun park that takes you on a circuit around the park with different musical, comedy and theatrical presentations. Everything is in Spanish, both of us apeak the language so it wasn't an issue. Check the pictures for an idea. This park gives you some of the history and process of coffee in Colombia, the importance and process of sugar cane, as well as how farms and animals are used in the coffee culture.

I'm from Pennsylvania,USA,these men and weman actors put on a great show,very funny,interaction with the crowd I will be going back to the show on my next trip

This is a beautiful place, very entertaining, and a great way to learn about the culture of Colombia! Lots of fun and fantastic food!

Excellent theme park that teaches us about the coffee culture of our Paisa ancestors, I recommend it 100%.

The experience here was exquisite. There was quite a bit of people that would entertain us with their speeches and talents. The architecture is of the buildings is pretty beautiful as well. You can tell that the people here worked hard to make it a blast for visitors. Would definitely recommend going to if you want to learn about Colombian culture, 10/10

Stayed here four nights. The rooms are in nicely styled bungalows or multi-room complexes. Rooms very clean. The help was very kind. Included meals were basic, but filling and good. Two days into our stay the pool turned green and big frogs enjoyed their turn. The amusement park tour was a combination of skits. The letdown was a pigeon show. There were interesting horse shows in the horse arena.

Nice place,good food nice shows,affordable prices

Awesome theme park. If you really want to enjoy it, this have to be a full day run. On weekends it's really crowded, so try to get as early as you can. The best parts: the train, horse rides, no one smoking and lots of sunrays.

Great park to visit with family or friends. It’s stroller friendly, lots of activities for the kids, make sure they are tall enough for the rides. More than 90cm. Being extra clothes and shoes because there are water attractions that you can easily get soaked. Good sunscreen and hats for all.

Fantastic experience of nature, attractions, coffee flavors and culture, art, landscapes and of course Colombian warmth and hospitality. We had a great time, savored coffee like never before, danced and rejoiced at the folklore show, relaxed walking along the trails. It was a blast.

Amazing amazing experience. There is something for everyone, you can easily do everything in 1 day. By far one of the best folklore shows I have seen and like everyone says, you cannot miss it. The reviews do not lie.

Parque del Café in Quindío is a must-visit destination to enjoy with family or friends 🎢☕. It combines fun, coffee culture, and beautiful landscapes all in one place. The weather is warm, so it’s advisable to wear light clothing and stay hydrated 💧👒. Among its attractions are roller coasters, a cable car, and tours that highlight the history and tradition of Colombian coffee. A truly unique experience you shouldn’t miss!

We had a very fun day at the park. We’re 4 adults and we came for coffee but the park is so much more. It’s a cultural experience and there’s a lot of fun rides to do as well. I can recommend the coffee show, take a stroll in the bamboo park, ofcourse take the teleferico for beautiful views, the train is fun, all the water rides are fun but prepare to get absolutely soaked. The coffee museum in the beginning is a must and the sensory room at the end completes the whole thing. For food I can recommend the oriental place at the food mall near the tree boat ride. Although there are more options at the plaza bolivar (there’s even a Subway). Get your coffee at Juan Valdez or try a granizado. The horse ride is fun (and a complementary $15,000) but a bit boring. I would do it again though! We didn’t expect to spend almost all day here. It’s very fun for kids too and people of all ages. We didn’t try any of the thrill rides like the rollercoasters but they look like a lot of fun. There’s almost no lines to wait for the rides and there’s lockers near the water rides to keep your stuff safe and dry.

Great amusement park and great views of coffee plantations. The “coffee show” is a well performed act that takes you on a journey through the coffee regions of Colombia. Fairly priced well maintained.

Very interesting spot to explore in La Union. It is a great place to learn more about the agriculture and history of the area. Even though it was entirely in Spanish we (non-Spanish speakers) were still able to learn a lot. Plus, they have some awesome products available including grape marmalade, jams, panela and of course wine.

This was very fun, definitely wear sunscreen and a hat. We bought yummy food and the views were amazing.

it's a beautiful place to have walk with family and get to know some of the products Colombia has to offer like panela, honey, and of course whine

Amazing experience. Prices little bit high but with it. Recommended.

Fantastic place. Visit it. A great experience

Nice place to go and learn many things about the vines, have a nice walk through a small forest and see some farm animals.

Great place to hang out and learn a lot about the products and animals!

Spent the whole day here with the family and had lots of fun. They advertise it as a coffee farm visit, but it’s way more than that. I’d even say that coffee takes a small place here. They will put you in traditional costumes and teach you how to dance the old-school way. They will show you a big handmade model village that’s fun to explore. They will also take multiple pictures of you (and charge you for them later if you want to keep them). At the very end, they finally tell you a little about coffee and let you taste a small cup. So don’t come here for the coffee, but more for the photos and the fun experience.

Solid tour. Thanks to Alejandro for his energy and engagement. We learnt about coffee, the Paisas and had heaps of fun despite the heat. Apply sunscreen and keep cool ☀️ The park can feel kitschy at times but that’s part of the charm if you are into that sort of local immersion.

Manuel, our Jeep chauffeur recommended this place. This place is beautiful. Our coffee tour guide, Juan David Giraldo, was the best. He is fun and enthusiastic, and his energy is contagious. We all loved Recuca and in grand part because of his fun energy. Ok. Now the bad: we were horribly disappointed to learn the coffee shop didn't take cards. My heart sank when the employee said it was CASH ONLY 🤯. I mean, this is a tourist spot!!!. We paid for the tickets with a visa card. And we really wanted to buy MANY bags coffee there to bring home..... it was kind of horrible to go home empty-handed. So this is my humble recommendation for the administrator: ALLOW people buy and pay with ALL the options available. Not only cash!!!! You are losing a LOT of clients. 😪

I loved this coffee experience! They taught us everything from how coffee originated to how to distinguish the differences between coffee beans, to how to make the perfect cup and all the varieties of coffee. We even dressed up in costumes that represented the people who previously had coffee farms. Towards the end we had to pick out coffee beans. It was an enriching experience especially for someone who loves coffee

Very fun and informative. There is lots of colored commentary and double entendre jokes along the tour. Not sure if they offer tours in English though. It is recommended to bring a hat, sunglasses and some sunscreen. There is lots of walking and some areas aren’t very accessible if using a wheel chair or pushing a stroller. I wouldn’t recommend bringing small children as it can be hot and they probably wouldn’t enjoy the tour as much. A typical lunch is offered with beans, rice, ground beef, plantain and your only choice for a second meat is either chorizo or pork cracklings.

Excellent chocolate tour! We had an English-speaking (bilingual) tour guide (Andres G). I assumed he had worked there for 10-15 years! He was so knowledgeable. He explained everything about the cultivation and processing of cocoa. My kids loved it. My wife loved it. We got to eat yummy fresh cocoa from the fruit! They made it super fun. I'd recommend wearing pants and long sleeves! This might have been the highlight of our whole trip!

We had a great time here. The tour (in English) was very good. Everything was explained in great detail and you could also take part yourself, for example picking coffee beans. Everything was very informative and interesting and the area is simply beautiful. We had also booked lunch. I personally wasn't a fan of it, but others in the group really enjoyed it.

This was a great experience with wonderful views. The history is very interesting, the place is so clean. The staff are friendly and fun. Started and ended tour with amazing coffee, along with being an ambassador for coffee after the coffee baptism. Highly recommended.

Before coming here, we spent the whole day on a coffee tour where they did a much worse job explaining coffee in hours compared to the young barista who attended us at this coffee terrace in just a few minutes. You can truly feel the passion for coffee that everyone who works here has. The baristas deliver impeccable service and explanations. Of course, it’s no surprise that the coffee here is some of the best I have ever tasted. If all that isn’t good enough, there is also a terrace with beautiful views of the landscape and the small village in the mountains. I will never forget this place, a magical spot in the mountains.

The expresso was very good. The cappuccino was also very good. They have a small variety of desserts but the atmosphere and view are the real reason for coming here. The service is very good also. Enjoying the birds singing and the beautiful view really brings out your our inner peace and awakens you to a beautiful place.

The best place to learn about the world famous coffee culture and its anthology. Great tour, delicious bakery, awesome coffee and a mind blowing cocktail made with a sweet melasa made out of coffee. The landscape you can capture from the terrace has no match on this country.

We had a great time at San Alberto. We learned a lot about coffee and all the different ways of preparing it. The view was beautiful and service was excellent. I highly recommend the coffee experience.

One of the places that you have to visit in the coffee region of Colombia if you want to taste the coffee that won the most of the prices over Colombia. This cafe represents perfectly what is a perfect cup of coffee in many different types of ways. Enjoy it strong or soft, or cold or hot or in many other popular ways. Also San Alberto offers you the possibility to see the coffee process since the picking of the red beans to the drying, roasting and grilling of this coffee of this same farm for the end have a experience with some of the best "catadores" to teach you how to distinguish a perfect cup of coffee.

This is one of the cofee places that owns their own cofee farm and sells it. The cofee is definitely an experience and some are prepared on your table. The view is magnificent. There is an offering of dessert to complement your cofee but very limited and not all may be available. This is not a restaurant just in case you're looking for a real meal.

It's not just your usual coffee tour but a whole experience! We started with a wander around Pijao and visited a beautiful traditional house, not just charming on the outside but enchanting on the inside! Followed by a 4x4 adventure to Don Leo's coffee farm. Everything felt very authentic and so well explained in a captivating and engaging way. Lunch was a delicious traditional soup. Once back in Pijao we visited a nursery which specialises in healing herbs, I learnt a lot about what herbs will help what ailments and we enjoyed a herbal tea. I had a great day out with Alejandra!

This tour was so authentic and without other tourists. We ve be been the only tourists in Pijao. There is a wonderful landscape. We met a lot of locals. Learned about Tradition , Culture , Food and of course coffee :).. It was super interesting. Our Guide was super openminded, we learned also about her past and life in Columbia and Pijao a lot. Thanks for this nice family atmosphere. In Columbia this was our best tour to see different aspects of Columbia, coffee, nature and People

Strongly recommend this tour both for locals and foreigners. I took part of this tour together to we with 4 friends (all Europeans) and had an amazing time. Alejandra is really knowledgeable and well connected in the region so she will take you to places you may not come across but yourself. During the experience you not only learn about coffee from bean to cup, you get to try and learn about specialty coffees from the actual people involved in the process. I can only recommended !

Choosing Experiencia Cafetera to learn about the Colombian coffee culture was the best decision I could have made! For three days I lived a unique space of immersion around coffee production and peasant life in Pijao, a beautiful and peaceful town that has it all: rivers, waterfalls, mountains, lovely architecture, delicious food, unbeatable coffee😃 and wonderful people. The professionalism and warm service of Juan David, Don Leo and Doña Ligia were beyond praise. Special thanks to Juan David for his knowledgeable guidance and for making me feel so at home. I highly recommend this experience for academic visits.

Great tour operator. The 1 day wakecup tour is an amazing and thorough way to understand every step of coffee making, from planting the seeds to savouring the cup. And you can really feel the passion and hard work that go behind it. A definite must for coffee lovers but highly recommended to everyone.

Our family spent the day with Alejandra on our last day in Colombia, and it was the highlight of our trip. Our time in beautiful, uncrowded Pijao, sampling coffees and learning about regionally vital herbs, were the bookends to an amazing visit to the finca where Don Leo devoted hours to a detailed tour of his farm. Alejandra was informative, proud, and joyous throughout, and her excellent English was a relief to our family after some struggles with Spanish! We cannot recommend Experiencia Cafetera enough.
