Highlights
This unique walking experience is thoughtfully crafted for foreigners and locals in Spanish, English, and Portuguese (We select the language one day before the experience if all participants agree, otherwise I suggest canceling). We utilize information and expertise in specialty coffee to convey the truth. Our goal is to provide an understanding of specialty coffee, offering history, samples of coffee plants, processes, and bean defects, among other aspects, teaching you how to appreciate coffee through various methods, evaluating them, and guiding you in selecting quality beans. The tour includes three stations. We'll be regular customers, not having pre-booked the coffee shops, to impartially assess their service and coffee quality. With the assistance of our coffee experts and feedback from baristas, we're committed to refining this experience. We appreciate any suggestions after the coffee experience because we continuously improve it based on your feedback.

About Bogotá
Bogotá, Colombia's capital, sits high in the Andes at around 2,600 metres, with a colonial old quarter, a famed gold museum and a hilltop church.
La Candelaria, the old quarter, lies at the foot of the eastern hills, with streets of colonial houses, galleries and murals around Plaza de Bolívar and its cathedral. The Gold Museum holds thousands of pre-Hispanic gold objects, and the Botero Museum shows the plump figures of Fernando Botero, who gave the city his collection. Above town, a funicular and cable car rise to Monserrate, a white church at over 3,100 metres.
Top-ranked sights in Bogotá: Plaza de Bolivar, Botero Museum (Museo Botero), Gold Museum (Museo del Oro).
