7 Coffee & Tea Tours in Pereira That You Shouldn't Miss

April 21, 2022 Agatha Simes

The vibrancy of Pereira is due in part to its large population of students, who roam the European-style streets in search of coffee, cheap eats or ways to blow off steam between exams. Explore the nature walks of El Cedral eco-park, then marvel at the exotic creatures you’ll find at both the Zoo Matecaña and the nightclubs of Avenida Simón Bolivar. Pereira is one of the three cities comprising Colombia’s “coffee triangle,” so a perfect cup is never too far away.

Arvey the host is just amazing. Friendly, nice and funny. What makes this trip so unique is the 3 different modes of transportation you will probably never have experienced before! Including Brujita, Garrucha and Willy Jeep. Also, Arvey makes it so safe with a support van following you. Even though the bike ride is not technical, if at any moment you are tired you can easily get in the van! This was by far the most authentic, unique and adventurous trip we had in Colombia BY FAR!

When visited the Cocora Valley, I got surprised for the charges to visit the place, I have to add that rules whereas nearby extinguished animal like “Condor” and “Colobris” are at risk as many users take drones to have better pictures and films. Individuals that do not visit the park with guides often abuse the basic rules of respect and cleanness. Supposed Guides are accomplishing the rules, nor protecting animals, the payment of the entry fee is not an added value for the National reserves of Colombia. The main area off the Valle del Cocora is privately owned and from national interest, but it is a shame if you add that the Palma de Cera’s natural habitat is not there only but more in the forest of the cordillera of Colombia
