The trip

Coffee axis & the Caribbean

Coffee farms with the families who run them, a city that dances on a Tuesday, and the slow Caribbean at the end.

Colombia gives you energy you did not ask for. We build the route so you can keep up.

The day-by-day isn't written yet

We publish an itinerary only once we have walked it with the local host, slept in every bed on it and eaten in every kitchen. For Colombia the route and the hosts are confirmed; the day-by-day is still being tested.

Everything else on this page is real planning: the regions, the nights, the difficulty, what's included and what isn't.

Register interest and you'll be first to see the full itinerary — and first in line for the opening group, which is where the price is lowest and the group is smallest.

What you'll actually do

Confirmed already

Picking, not touring

A morning working on a small farm, then drinking what you helped pick.

Salsa with no mercy

Three lessons across the trip. By Cali you can hold your own.

Where you sleep

Accommodation

Finca stays & small hotels

Farm rooms in the coffee region, simple beach cabins on the coast.

How hard is it?

Gentle — easy days, late nights

Level 2 of 5

One 5-hour valley hike. Otherwise the hardest thing is the dance class.
