Rute
You will be driven to “Luger”, a traditional coffee farm with a hundred years of history where you will find great views, a relaxing atmosphere but specially hectares of coffee plantations. Once in here, you will meet the tour guide and coffee expert. He will walk you along the different areas of the farm in order to explain you the phases coffee has, and he will invite you later to participate in some of them. Planting a coffee seed right in the seedlings and picking up the coffee cherries from the bushes, for example. After witnessing and being part of the growing process, you will go and see the last steps, like roasting and sometimes grinding.

5Lugar coffee tour.
Really interesting tour of the Lugar cafe plantation. Marlon took us through the whole process from picking the coffee fruit to roasting the beans. We also enjoyed drinking the end product. Yazmin was great in coordinating our tour including transport and we enjoyed learning more about the town of Salento from her after the visit to Lugar. She kindly provided more coffee to try along the way.
5Exceptional Tour
Our guide, Juan Camilo Robledo, was extremely knowledgeable and communicative. He went out of the way to accommodate us.
510/10 Highly recommend! Do not miss Finca Luger
Absolutely amazing. Our tour guide, Marcela, was phenomenal. The staff at Finca Luger goes above and beyond to explain the entire coffee process. Truly a remarkable experience. Pro tip: bring shoes you don’t mind ruining and do not forget a rain coat. It rains every afternoon. I highly recommend Gran Colombia Tours and all of their staff/partners.
5Great experience
Great experience. Excellent communication. Fun times. The driver and guide were both exceptional. The tour was well-organized and well worth it.
2Extremely overpriced
The guides were very nice, but the tour itself felt rushed (at one point the boss shouted to our guide in Spanish to hurry up). There was very little coffee served during the tour - one tiny cup at the start, and one tiny cup at the end. And it wasn't especially good coffee either. parts of the tour felt very much like a dog and pony show... I found out later that not all of the information given was correct. I think the price I paid - about $150 USD - would be fair for a couple, but is extortionate for a solo traveler considering the experience.
5Informative and interesting tour
The tour was very good. We enjoyed very much. It's very informative. We experienced different processes of coffee production. We learned a lot. Our guide Gustavo was excellent. He's a nice guy, very considerate, warm hearted.

About Salento
Salento, in Colombia's coffee region, is a small hill town of coloured balconies close to the Cocora Valley and its towering wax palms.
Salento sits in Quindío department at around 1,900 metres in the Central Andes, in the heart of the coffee region. Houses along Calle Real are painted in bright colours, with carved wooden balconies and doors, and the main square is ringed with craft shops and cafés. A stairway climbs to a lookout above the rooftops, and old Willys jeeps parked on the plaza carry passengers to the valley.
Top-ranked sights in Salento: Cocora Valley (Valle de Cocora).
