Private Tour of Pereira
Having picked you up from your hotel at your chosen time, we'll set off on our guided tour of Pereira. This Colombian city is located 155 miles (250 kilometres) from the capital Bogotá and sits in the centre of the Coffee Triangle.
Accompanied by your guide, you'll visit some of the most iconic places in the city that are also of particular historical and cultural value. One of the places you'll explore is Avenida Circunvalar, also known as the 'pink zone', which is a street full of shops, bars, hotels and restaurants and the perfect place to meet friends and socialise.
Next, we'll head to Plaza de Bolívar. This spot is located in the centre of the city and is Pereira's main shopping area. While we're here, you'll be able to admire the Bolívar Desnudo monument.
Nearby, we'll find the Cathedral of Our Lady of Poverty. This neoclassical building has been hit by two earthquakes over the years, which has resulted in the need for certain renovations. Inside the cathedral, you can spot 13,503 wooden planks supporting the building's ceiling.
Our tour will then take us to the Plaza de la Concordia, which is also known as Parque Lago Uribe. In the past, this square was the scene of celebrations, demonstrations and battles. Nowadays, it houses important public buildings, restaurants, bars, shops and much more.
During the private tour of Pereira, your guide will tell you all about the history of the Coffee Triangle and the customs of its residents. You'll also have the chance to sample some of the local flavours, such as its coffee.
After you've spent 3 hours touring Pereira, you'll be taken back to your hotel. See you next time!
