You’ll also get to explore this wonderful Finca and find so much more than just coffee is grown here, such as a large variety of fruits as well.

You’ll fully appreciate how Colombia has the greatest variety of bird species in the world (in this area there are over 330 species).
While you are searching for singing birds, be sure to keep a careful eye out towards the treetops, as a family of red howler monkeys calls this sanctuary home, and more than likely they’ll be keeping an eye on you from a distance.
