Il tour si svolge all’interno di un solo negozio di souvenir. Vengono date molte informazioni sui prodotti tipici colombiani. Nell’ultima parte viene offerto un approfondito mini corso, che permette di apprendere in dettaglio sia le caratteristiche che l'origine degli smeraldi.

Es un recorrido por una tienda en el barrio de Candelaria. Son muy amables, puedes conocer la historia de sus cafés, chocolates, artesanías, museo del oro, taller joyería de esmeraldas...etc.. Quizás estaría muy bien ampliarlo por otras tiendas de la zona. Aquí te vas a sentir bien asesorado y con calidad en todos sus productos. Elvira es muy buena explicando y una gran guru
