The 5 Best Sights & Landmarks in Chinchina, Caldas Department

Reviewed By Yingyang54 - Tucson, United States

From the moment I arrived, Jorge and his family made me feel very welcome. Jorge and Santiago speak excellent English and they were invaluable to me. The food is prepared by Jorge’s mother Maria Theresa and was the best food I have eaten in Colombia since arriving three weeks ago. Of course, the coffee was plentiful and delicious. The tour was extensive. I now have a much greater appreciation for the hard work it takes to produce good coffee. Jorge also gave me a wonderful tour of the grounds and explained all the tropical vegetation growing in that area. Many dogs were on the property. They were extremely friendly and were never noisy or a nuisance. My room was very comfortable and a fan was thoughtfully provided since it was a little warm and there is no AC. The room, bathroom and shower were spotlessly clean and hot water was plentiful. A hammock and swing was available on the porch outside my room. One caution I would give future visitors is to bring insect repellent. There are biting insects in the coffee groves and I failed to protect myself with DEET. My stay was an incredible value as my total bill for the one night; two meals; tour and souvenirs was only $70 usd.
