My
two
friends
and
I
had
an
AMAZING
time
on
a
Medellin
Concordia
Coffee
Tour
with
Andrés
(which
ended
up
being
about
much
more
than
just
coffee!).
We
spent
a
week
in
Colombia
across
Bogota,
Medellin,
and
Cartagena
and
this
was
by
far
our
favorite
day
of
our
trip.
Andrés
got
in
touch
with
us
many
days
before
the
tour
date
to
confirm
the
pick-up
time
and
location.
He
picked
us
up
directly
from
our
hotel
and
provided
a
thorough
explanation
of
what
we
could
expect
for
the
day.
At
the
same
time,
Andrés
also
offered
us
say
in
what
we
wanted
to
do,
what
we
wanted
to
see,
and
which
routes
we
wanted
to
take
in
order
for
us
to
maximize
our
experience.
Over
the
course
of
the
day,
we
had
a
home-cooked
meal
at
his
ranch,
picked
and
processed
coffee
beans
at
a
large
Concordia
coffee
ranch,
visited
the
town
of
Concordia,
and
visited
other
ranches
in
the
area
that
had
the
most
breathtaking
views
of
the
area.
Along
the
way,
Andrés
was
always
ready
to
stop
so
we
could
take
photos
or
so
he
could
take
photos
for
us.
Andrés
was
also
an
incredibly
good-natured
and
interesting
individual,
and
we
enjoyed
many
fascinating
conversations
about
his
life
journey.
On
top
of
all
that,
what
was
most
impressive
was
Andrés'
deep
knowledge
of
every
facet
of
the
trip.
He
pointed
out
and
identified
different
birds
flying
around
us
in
the
Andes
and
which
trees
and
flowers
were
blooming.
He
provided
a
thorough
account
of
Colombia's
coffee
history
and
coffee
industry.
And
he
taught
us
about
the
social
and
political
context
that
set
the
backdrop
for
these
details.
I
left
Andrés'
tour
feeling
with
a
deeper
understanding
of
a
variety
of
topics,
from
coffee
to
food
to
culture
to
politics,
and
the
personalized
and
full
experience
Andrés
provides
is
worth
every
penny.
