Filandia, the Daughter of the Andes

Filandia. SustainableDestination– Natural Private Reserve

(Duration: 8 hours approx.)

Transfer from the meeting point established previously to Filandia, the daughter of the Andes in the Eden, traduced as Quindio in Quimbaya language. We visit a private nature reserve, where you walk through a sub-Andean forest. There you can see a sample of the biodiversity in fauna and flora of Coffee Cultural Landscape and perhaps see red howler monkeys in the wild. Afterwards, we go to Filandia, where lunch is a gastronomic experience, with fusion cuisine with typical products. In the afternoon, with a local historian, walk the main streets observing its architecture with a variety of shapes and colors.
