## About this plan

If you want a different kind of day trip near Bogotá, this full-day tour combines two experiences worth your time. You visit a traditional coffee farm and walk around Laguna El Tabacal, a quiet lake surrounded by local legends in the town of La Vega, Cundinamarca.

The tour leaves Bogotá with pickup at agreed spots and lasts seven to eight hours. You start with pan de bono at Alto del Vino, ride through the coffee fields in a 4x4, join a hands-on coffee workshop, and walk the trails around a lake that nearby indigenous communities consider sacred. A traditional lunch is included, plus a quick stop to see local crafts before heading back.

This plan works well for anyone who wants to get out of the city without dealing with the logistics. Transport, main meals, and activities come in the package. You can check the current price and exact times in the source at the bottom of this page.
