The Eje Cafetero or “coffee axis” sits at the crossroads between the towns of Armenia, Manizales and Pereira in central Colombia.
Often called the Coffee Triangle, the region is every bit the bucolic idyll. Bottle green hills are dotted with coffee plants, lolloping banana palms and exotic flora; straw-hatted farmers buzz along meandering roads in jeeps laden with spoils for market; while pastures are grazed by plump, glossy-coated Brahman cattle.
We have singled out a couple of delightful working farms and have access to one of the most spectacular properties in the Coffee Triangle for private rental, complete with staff, horses and swimming pool.
When in the Coffee Triangle, drink coffee. We arrange coffee tastings and tours of the plantations, as well as visits to the market towns of Salento and Manizales. For those wanting more activity, try an afternoon in the saddle accompanied by our beloved horse whisperer. If you want to fully enjoy the landscape views of the region, you can take to the skies and travel between haciendas by hot air balloon.

Many of the delights of Colombia are found off the beaten track. Take in the Marquezian charm of Mompox, the biodiversity of the Amazon, the wild beauty of El Chocó, the quaint cobbles of Barichara, or the vast wetlands of Los Llanos.
