A day among coffee fields: a family plan to discover coffee in Pereira

When we think of a family plan in Pereira, we often picture parks, restaurants or places where kids can run around and have fun. But there is another way to get to know Colombia's Coffee Region that can also be enjoyed as a family: walking among coffee fields, visiting a farm and discovering where that coffee we usually drink in a cup comes from.

And that is exactly what we want to talk about today.

At Café Los Grisales we are lucky that our story begins on a coffee farm. At Finca Vista Hermosa, in the rural area of Dosquebradas, Risaralda, our family has lived coffee growing up close, along with all the knowledge gathered over the years, often by listening to our parents and grandparents.

That is why we created our Coffee Tour in Pereira: to open the doors of our farm and share a small piece of our brand with visitors.

A different plan to do with kids in Pereira

If you are looking for what to do in Pereira with kids, a tour of a coffee farm can become a completely different experience from the usual plans.

Here children don't just hear about coffee: they can meet the plant, walk through the coffee fields and discover that before it becomes the drink we know there is a whole process behind it.

During the tour we talk in simple terms about how a coffee plant is born, how it is grown, what happens during the harvest and what the bean goes through before it finally reaches a cup.

And something we really like is that we don't try to turn the visit into a complicated lesson. We want it to be a space to ask, observe, walk and learn together.

Because yes, children can also enjoy a coffee tour when the experience is designed to be shared as a family.

From the farm to the cup

One of the things that surprises our visitors the most is discovering everything that happens before a coffee is brewed.

We often walk into a coffee shop, order our favourite drink and simply enjoy it. But behind that cup there is a seed, a plant, months of care, a harvest and the work of many people.

During our coffee tour in Pereira, we want to bring families closer to that story.

As we walk around the farm, Don Diego shares part of his knowledge as a coffee grower and tells how coffee has been worked from the field, drawing on know-how passed down from generation to generation.

An experience to share as a family

We believe that one of the best memories of a trip is not always the place we visited, but what we learned and the stories we shared with those we travelled with.

That is why our family Coffee Tour is designed as a close, personal experience. It is not only about visiting a coffee farm; it is about meeting the people behind the coffee and understanding a little more about the coffee culture of our region.

If you are planning a trip to the Coffee Region with kids, coming to Pereira on holiday or simply looking for a different family plan, you can include a visit to a coffee farm in your itinerary.

We will be happy to welcome you at Finca Vista Hermosa, show you our coffee and share the story of Café Los Grisales with you.
