Filandia, you find the colorful landscape of its houses, doors, windows and its beautiful people in the park in front of the church, happy, talkative, you can easily get around the surroundings, viewpoint, shops and streets, museum, generally easy to get around, “Grandma's shop” there you can have a delicious colada in a pewter vessel, without words, a true delight and divine pastries.
Salento, good roads, allocate more time for your tour, it is truly beautiful, much more colorful and friendly, its people everywhere, there is a beautiful viewpoint that you should take the complete tour to see the city, it is worth it!!! movie gastronomy!!! Where “Laurita” the tostón and the trout in its various varieties is a delight, in addition to its attention, price and the very picturesque decoration, its owner is attentive to closing the visit with a handshake and obvious hugs because everyone there seems of the family, divine!!! The coffees for dessert are a delight, special in their presentation, good prices.
The icing on the cake, Cocora Valley, tremendous place, natural landscape of Quindío, magic, total charm, there is no spotlight that does not spot the perfect angle for the photo, especially there are tours available to its forests and extreme adventures, on horseback , viewpoints, and a walk around the area, especially to see the beauty of the wax palm, its own little clouds, a journey of immeasurable beauty.
Recommendation Filandia, Salento and Valle del Cocora, travel on non-holiday days, given the number of people who visit them, comfortable clothing and shoes, a light jacket due to the clouds typical of the region. If you go on your own camper vehicle, parking is very difficult. Don't forget coffee tasting in Pereira "Cafe Pandora". !!!unique experience!!!

¡Muchas gracias por compartir tu increíble experiencia! Nos llena de alegría saber que disfrutaste de tu visita a Filandia, Salento y el Valle del Cocora.
Estamos encantados de que hayas podido apreciar el colorido y la calidez de las casas, puertas y ventanas de Filandia, así como la amabilidad de su gente. Nos alegra que hayas disfrutado de la "Tienda de la abuela" y sus deliciosas coladas y repostería.
Salento siempre sorprende con su belleza y su gastronomía. Nos alegra saber que tu visita a "Laurita" fue memorable, y que tanto la comida como la atención te hicieron sentir como en familia.
El Valle del Cocora es, sin duda, un tesoro natural del Quindío, y nos complace saber que disfrutaste de sus paisajes mágicos, recorridos y aventuras.
Agradecemos tus recomendaciones sobre la ropa y el calzado adecuados, y la sugerencia de evitar días festivos para una experiencia más tranquila. ¡Y por supuesto, no podemos olvidar la experiencia única de la cata de café en "Café Pandora" en Pereira!

The area is beautiful, and visiting with Jose adds knowledge, Colombian culture, good humor and modernity to this day.
Tasting Colombian coffee explained by a connoisseur, discovering a local beer, learning about birds and discussing Colombian lifestyle adds to the experience.
We warmly recommend visiting the coffee area with him.
