We had a very fun experience with Dahiana as our Guide and Daniel our driver, who always treated us in the best way and took us to a chocolate farm where we could learn the whole chocolate process. Then we went for a hike in the impressive Cocora Valley and then a delicious lunch, to finish knowing a little Salento. Highly recommended experience to do when they are down the coffee shaft!
