Great Tour - not worth $55 though
It was a beautiful adventure, cable car ride and walk around a small area of a farm, the guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The coffee process was also interesting to learn about. I don’t think it was worth $55 though. Unless you love coffee I wouldn’t recommend it
via Viator
A hike and a treat!
Seeing and Learning how coffee is cultivated from start to finish at the highest regions of the country was both an experience and a history lesson. Melissa was our guide and though she lacked some formality, presentation and knowledge of the region she was still very kind and welcoming. You’ll hike the high regions, don a uniform, pick coffee beans, watch as they undergo the selection, washing, drying, and roasting of the best beans, and finally drink a cup while listening to a short seminar and how to find the best coffee to drink back home. Tips: Wear sunscreen, wear hiking shoes and light cargos and or dri fit pants and shirts. You’ll be in the bush!

Highly Recommended!!
This was one of my favorite tours in Medellin. The spectacular panoramic views from the mountainside and the cable car ride, the hands-on coffee lesson (we picked our own beans), the beautiful and peaceful landscape of the coffee farm, and last but not least - our energetic, fun and infinitely helpful guide (Valentina),

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views cost?
+
Prices start at $15 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Medellín usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views take?
+
Plan for about 4.3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Medellín is not rushed.
Is Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 79 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Medellín, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views?
+
Around 28 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Medellín can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Medellín and add a light layer if any part of the 4.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Medellin Coffee Farm Tour with Panoramic Cable Car Views start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Medellín within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Medellín?
+
On Outty we rank every Medellín experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guatapé Tour: Piedra del Peñol with Boat Tour, Breakfast, Lunch, Half-Day Coffee Tour: From the Seed to the Cup, Farm & roastery, Private Guatape & Coffee Farm Tour: The Two Must do in One Day. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Medellín?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Medellín?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
