Bogota Coffee Farm and Tequendama Falls Day Trip
Hours, prices and access verified by the Bogota Coffee Tours team — last checked 2026-08-29
A farm, a waterfall and a door-to-door transfer
Collected from your hotel
A return shared transfer from your own address,
which removes the 6:30 taxi from the equation.
Two hours on the finca
A guided tour of a working coffee farm near
Fusagasuga, entry ticket included in the fare.
Tequendama Falls
The Bogota River goes 132 metres off a cliff, and the day builds
a viewpoint stop into the route.
Coffee liqueur to finish
A speciality the farm makes itself, poured at the
end of the visit.
Birds along the way
The route runs through forest, and the species you
pass are part of what you are paying for.
Why this is the one most people book
It has the highest review count of any coffee departure from the city, and the reason
is structural rather than scenic: it collects you, it includes the farm's entry ticket, and
it adds a second sight to a drive you were making anyway. For a first trip to Bogota that
combination is hard to argue with.
The day starts at your accommodation and runs south-west through countryside towards the
Bogota River. At the farm a guide takes you through how coffee is grown and processed here,
and how the operation has scaled up over the years. Then Tequendama Falls, seen from a
viewpoint by a local eatery, and a coffee liqueur back at the finca before the transfer
home.
Set your expectations on the coffee itself. This is a working commercial farm rather
than a specialty estate, and the cup at the end is brewed on an espresso machine. If the
cup is the point, a coffee plantation tour at the specialty end will serve you better; if the day is the
point, this is the best-value version of it.

local eatery beside it.
The coffee farm, near Fusagasuga. Two hours guided, entry ticket
inside the fare.
Coffee liqueur. The farm's own, at the end of the visit.

Who this suits, and who should book something else
Book this if
It is your first trip, you want the logistics handled, and you would rather see two
things than one. The included transfer and entry ticket make it the least complicated full
day here, and the review volume behind it is the largest of any coffee departure from the
city.
Book something else if
You are a specialty drinker who came for the cup. The farm brews on an espresso machine
and does not work at the specialty end. In Chapinero the cup is the whole subject, and
the two-hour workshop there
costs half as much.
Know before you go
Food is not included. The fare covers transport, guiding, the farm
ticket and the liqueur, and nothing to eat. Bring money for lunch, or eat first.
The guided part runs two hours standing. One traveller asks for
somewhere to sit during it, and that is fair warning if you need to.
It is a long drive. Nine hours door to door, and the return leg is
Bogota traffic. Do not plan an early evening.
Not suitable for wheelchair users. It is also flagged as unsuitable
during pregnancy.
Small group, shared vehicle. The transfer is shared with others
booked the same day.
Bring layers. You start at 2,640 metres and finish the day much
lower, and the falls viewpoint is exposed.
Free cancellation up to 24 hours aheadHotel pickup and the farm's entry ticket are both inside the fare.
Next step: pick your date and see live availability, the exact meeting time and travellers' own photographs of the day.
Questions people ask before booking this one
How high is Tequendama Falls?
433 feet, or 132 metres, where the Bogota River goes over the cliff. You see it from a viewpoint rather than from below, and there is a local eatery at the stop.
Is lunch included?
No. Food, extra drinks and souvenirs all sit outside the fare. Bring cash in pesos, or eat before the pickup.
Which farm does it visit?
A working coffee estate near Fusagasuga, about two hours from the city, and the entry ticket is inside the price. It is a commercial operation rather than a specialty producer — the farms page sets out the difference between the estates you can reach in a day.
Is the coffee any good?
It is honest farm coffee, brewed on an espresso machine rather than by filter, and the estate does not work at the specialty end. If a specialty cup is what you are after, the two-hour tasting workshop is built around exactly that.
Will I be collected from my hotel?
Yes, and that is a large part of the appeal. The return shared transfer is included from your own address in Bogota. Confirm the pickup time when the operator contacts you.
Can I do this with children?
There is no minimum age, but it is nine hours with a two-hour standing tour in the middle. Younger children usually do better on the two-hour city tastings.
The driver-guide and the farm guide were both excellent and the waterfall stop is worth adding. I did not rate the coffee itself — it is brewed on an espresso machine, with no filter methods and nothing from the specialty end.

★★★★★
Sergio was a pleasure to travel with and the farm was an eye-opener about how the industry actually works here. The falls give you a view from a local eatery that you would never find alone.
Sergio's group — Johan, United Kingdom · April 2026 · couple Bogota Coffee farm tour · Coffee farm and Tequendama Falls
★★★★☆
A good day overall, but it is a long drive out and the guided part runs two hours standing up. Somewhere to sit during it would make a real difference.

If this one is not yours, the other two featured days are a hands-on day on a women-led smallholding, meeting in La Candelaria and a two-hour specialty workshop through three coffee rooms in Chapinero.
