      Great fun and very educational. Details of coffee production from planting,tending and picking the beans. Chance to experience the whole thing from the type of clothing through to picking and being paid for the result.Fortunately I was with a group who were happy to dress up and dance etc so I didn't have to. The coffee was good and Jefferson, our guide, very enthusiastic.

      I recommended to take the time to go to place like this where you can have a coffee experience inside the plantation and tasting first class coffee. The people are so friendly. They teach everything from the beginning to the end about the coffee process. You can dance, wear some clothing and enjoy the view.

      At the suggestion of a few people we visited Recuca to learn about coffee production in Colombia. The tour starts with everyone dressing up in traditional clothing and told an odd history of coffee production mixed with sexual innuendos, but after that everything is worthwhile. There is a walk through the traditional methods of preparing the bean, a discussion of the cultivation of crops while walking among the coffee plants and an opportunity to spend some time picking the berries from the plants. A knowledge of Spanish or a translator are necessary.

      We were slightly skeptical about the whole dressing up business and being made to feel a bit stupid but Cesar was such a good guide that it was great fun. It was clear that he enjoyed his job enormously and took the time to ensure that I could translate for the rest of my group. He had a genuine passion for coffee and knew his business well.The dressing up was actually enormous fun and we were all in hysterics including during the machete fight at the end.We opted for the lunch option and it was great to be served the same typical food as the staff were eating, essentially a bandeja paisa.My only complaint is the photos as there is an onsite photographer that will sell individual prints from the maybe 50 photos but will not sell them all on a disc. This I am sad to say is a typical Colombian attitude to business and short sighted on their part as I bought 2 prints when I would have paid double for the whole disc.

Finally you have to eat there, the food is delicious.

      In a sunny Sunday morning, while in a weekend in the zona cafetera area, we went, "driven" by our Colombian friends, to this famous finca where they have coffee plantations and they make visit to it. The best moment to go is the early morning (between 9:00 and 10:00), to avoid the strong sun.At our arrival we were so lucky that an English tour was already booked for that time, so we joined it. So in case you don't speak Spanish, be sure to ask for it in advance in order to not miss anything of the great explanation about the local life at the time of the "paisa" (typical old name of the farmers in that area)! The girl who was our guide (Jennifer, if I well remember the name) was very kind and really good in English and she explained us everything. The tour will start explaining the plants, the different coffee varieties, the origin, ... . All this, moving among the coffee plants. Then you will go to pick the coffee fruits from the plants, as they do! You will get a fresh aguapanela, perfect under the equator sun. After, you will also dress yourself as the old "paisa" and will learn how to dance typical dances. And at the end, if you booked it at the time of your arrival in the morning, you can also have lunch there. I really recommend it, it's not expensive and very traditional (also according to our Colombian friends who were with us).Not to miss!

      This is definitely a very educational yet interactive tour of the the coffee production process as well as of the norms and lives of coffee collectors in this region. Not only was the tour fun, but the staff went beyond the call of duty to be accomodating. When I was talking to my niece about what "panela" was, one of the guides over-heard us and went out of his way to bring some panela from the kitchen to show my niece. As if we weren't charmed enough, since one member of the group could not walk through the coffee field and had to wait behind during that portion of the tour, they found a staff member to play cards with him while he waited. I have never seen hospitality like this!

      Great enjoyment from welcome to farewell. You will be guided through a history of coffee production in Colombia with a full explanation of growing conditions etc. Our guide Ivonne, was very knowledagable and passionate about coffee. This is followed by a role play where you put on the equipment of the people who pick the coffee beans and pick some yourself! Then there is more role play putting on the typical clothes of the region, a five minute dance and photo opportunities. Then there is a demonstration of how coffee is dried and the steps which finish in a cup of premium grade coffee. Lunch is a traditional "bandeja" which is an optional extra. One suggestion for the managment, during the role play, photographs are taken and at the end of the visit you can view the pphotos and pay 10,000 pesos for a small picture. If I had been offered all the photos on a memory stick for 30,000 - 40,000 I would have paid for them.

      RECUCA is an unique cultural experience you cannot miss if you are traveling through Quindio. You will go by the farm and see what it takes to make coffee. Part of the tour includes harvesting it and of course, drinking it. Nice people around, great staff.
