Experience Details

How this tour creates an impact


La Palma y el Tucán is not only a breathtakingly beautiful place to develop a deep understanding of coffee but is also a community-driven social project. By selling their coffee, called neighbors & crops, they support smaller, neighboring coffee farmers. Often smaller coffee producers struggle to create a sustainable business around commercializing their product. La Palma y el Tucán offers a solution to this problem by taking over the logistics of distributing and processing the coffee so that farmers can focus on the quality of their product.

What You’ll Experience

Bogota (Pass By)

With just a 2-hour drive outside of Bogotá, the weather gets warmer, and an awarded high-quality coffee is grown carefully among steep mountains, dense forests, and low-flying clouds. La Palma & El Tucán, not only produces top-notch coffee but they also benefit coffee-growing families nearby, supporting fair-trade and eco-farming. You will be driven from a meeting point right into the countryside through the plains of Bogotá's Savannah. As you reach the destination, you will feel a slight change in temperature; a few degrees warmer and some MASL lower which open the possibility of coffee growing close to the big city.
