We did this tour yesterday and overall had mixed feelings. Our tour guide, Juan Carlo, was truly a pleasure — friendly, professional, and did his best to make sure everyone was comfortable and informed. He was definitely the highlight of the experience. That said, we felt the tour was significantly overpriced for what you actually get. Lunch was not included, which felt disappointing given the cost of the tour. For the price point, that really should be part of the package. The Santa Rosa hot springs were very crowded and, unfortunately, a bit dirty. There were many kids there as well, which made it feel less relaxing than we expected. It didn’t have the tranquil atmosphere we were hoping for. If we were to do it again, we would skip this tour and just go to Cocora Valley on our own for much cheaper and organize transportation independently. It would have been more cost-effective and flexible. Juan Carlo was great, but overall we wouldn’t book this particular tour again.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. We truly appreciate your kind words about our guide, Juan Carlo. All of our guides are professionals who genuinely strive to provide the best possible service and care for our guests, and we’re glad you highlighted his efforts. Regarding the price, it’s important to note that TripAdvisor applies a commission to reservations made through their platform, which impacts the final cost. In addition, this was a private and personalized transportation service, allowing flexibility with your schedule—something that would be similarly priced if booked directly with any reputable company. Other factors such as licensed guides, insurance, secure payment platforms, and operational costs also contribute to the overall price. Additionally, the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar being at a historically low level at the time can influence how the cost is perceived. Lunch was not included because we offer different tour options, and the selected plan does not cover meals. This allows guests to choose the option that best fits their preferences. As for the Santa Rosa hot springs, they are a public attraction and extremely popular among both locals and tourists. Their maintenance and crowd management depend entirely on the hot springs administration. Due to high demand, access is managed by time slots, and it’s common for the facilities to be busy. In the region, there are several hot spring options, each with a different atmosphere and experience, and guests are free to choose which one best suits their expectations. We’re sorry that factors such as crowd levels and the presence of children affected your enjoyment of the visit. We truly value your opinion, as it helps us continue improving our services. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us.
The tour guide Dahiana was very fun and knowledgeable. She also had very good recommendations of what to do around the area.
Eduar was an amazing guide. He was lovely and tailored the trip exactly as i requested. He was very knowledgable about the area and the entire history and culture of Colombia. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the highlights of eje Cafeterio in one day!
We're grateful for your review! It was great to have you on our tour.
It was the best investment we made is our few days in Pereira, everyone was very friendly especially Soledad our tour guide and Armando the driver who was with us the whole time!!! I will look for them again when we return to Colombia!!
¡Qué alegría saber que lo pasaste bien! Gracias por recomendarnos y confiar en nuestro equipo.
Very good agency to make a personalized tour. We touch with Dahiana and really what an excellent experience. He has a lot of passion about the history of his land apart from giving very good tips for the rest of the days 100% recommended 🤩
¡Gracias por tomarte el tiempo de escribirnos! Nos alegra saber que tu experiencia fue tan increíble. ¡Esperamos que sea solo la primera de muchas!
Very good visit, very complete explanation and very friendly. We visited both the coconut valley and salient and it was great. We were lucky enough that it made us very good and that helped.
Muchísimas gracias por tu reseña. ¡Esperamos verte nuevamente en tu próxima aventura!
Excellent tour, very good experience. Very good food. Our Dahiana guide was very friendly. Highly recommended to do this tour.
¡Tu reseña es música para nuestros oídos! Nos alegra mucho que disfrutaras tanto. ¡Hasta el siguiente tour!
Choosing this agency was the best choice. Our drivers Carlos and Fernando and our Guide Sergio made the experience in the coffee region special. We loved it. We are truly grateful that our day was so divine. The bad thing about not staying longer in the area
¡Qué bueno que lo pasaste bien! Gracias por tus palabras, nos motivan a seguir dando lo mejor.
Natalya our tour guide did an excellent job. Guillermo our driver was great! Loved the tour! The hike at Cocora valley was so worth it. Salento is beautiful and the tamales was very relaxing
We really appreciate your feedback! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your tour. Looking forward to seeing you again soon
Had a great day in Cococora valley, a wonderful recommended lunch. Great time walking around Salento and finished the evening with a latte before heading off to the hot springs to enjoy a soak and waterfalls watching the sunset into darkness over the falls. Our tour guide Juan was knowledgeable and the best photographer ever too! This was a great choice for a private tour guide out to see sites we wouldn’t have been able to organize on our own.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're glad you had a fantastic experience with us. We hope to see you again on your next adventure!
