Colombia’s Coffee Zone is an Amazing Place to take your kids and build some Amazing Family Memories
Colombia is the Coffee Country, right? Then how is it possible that it has a “Coffee Zone”?
Yes, I know. As paradoxical as it may sound, Colombia’s export-quality coffee is produced all over its national territory, but there’s an area between the departments of Quindío, Caldas, and Risaralda known as the Coffee Zone. It’s recognized worldwide for having structured all it’s culture and lifestyle around the production of the best coffee ever tasted. This is where you can enjoy not only wonderful coffee but a lot of fun activities around its culture.

Combination and Balance is the key.
As for the little ones, let’s say that pretty much all the activities you can do at Coffee Zone are kids-appropriate but, like any other place, there are attractions that may be more appealing for them, and others where -quite frankly- they could get a little bored because they are more about appreciating the landscapes (both natural and architectural) which is something kids tend to not be big fans of.

PANACA (National Park of the Agrarian Culture)
A very impressive natural theme park where the whole family can have fun as you get an insightful view of Colombian traditional country activities. Your kids will surely enjoy the tours where they get to see animals and interact with them safely, as well as the very popular shows performed by trained horses and their acrobatic horsemen.
Parque Nacional del Café
Another amazing theme park where you can enjoy the combination between coffee-based lifestyle, its history, and traditions, with the beauty of mountains-landscapes and mechanic attractions like rollercoasters, aerial, and slides. So, if your kids don’t want to walk across the mountains or visit a coffee history exposition, you might as well leave them playing in the kids-adapted zone of this park. Isn’t that cool?

La Aurora (Coffee Culture Tour)
While taking this full-immersion tour you may have both an educational and an amusing experience, where you and your family can play the role of a peasant’s family, like the many ones that live in Coffee Zone, and make a living out of the coffee cropping and manufacturing. Kids usually have a lot of fun picking coffee seeds out of the very crops where the best coffee in the world is grown, and then taking it through every step of its industrial process.
So, as you can see, The Coffee Zone has all the merits to be considered a “must” when embracing the whole Colombia experience and it is surely a place where a lot of amazing family memories are created by the millions of visitors it receives every year all year-round.
