This tour was one of the best adventures we have ever taken. Our driver, John, spoke excellent English, and kept us entertained and informed throughout the activity, even giving us a restaurant recommendation near our hotel, which was outstanding. And the tour of the Silleteros flower farm was incredible. The knowledge and experience of the owner was really appreciated, including his religious references to the equipment that he used. We will always cherish the time we spent on this great tour, and thank Trip Advisor for making it available to us.
Highly Recommend!

Their name says it all it was a Way cool tour with a way cool tour guide Lina! The booking process was smooth the staff went out of their way to help even with other advice on where to go and not. The Exotic Flowers Farm Sillereros tour was a delightful experience the flower family made me feel at home they were in their outfits and the farm was so colorful and full of flowers everywhere it seemed like something from a movie. Lina was my guide for all three tours she is an amazing human being not just a typical tour guide she has so much knowledge an overall beautiful person inside and out. Thanks to her I experienced a wonderful city with so much to offer I took other tours of theirs Santa Fe de Antioquia and Guatape with coffe villa tour and they gave me a discount since I wrote to them directly. All in all a wonderful time I would and will very highly recommend the folks at Way Cool for all of their tours and activities in Colombia.
Wonderful Visit

Jose Ignacio gave us a tour of his flower farm. He told us the history of the silleteros and the Medellin Flower Festival. It is a beautiful location in Santa Elena. We were lucky enough to have lunch there. It was delicious! It is a scenic 45 minute ride from Medellin. Don't miss this great tour!

My tour was fantastic with Alex as my tour guide. My driver arrived 10minutes before time and I received a complimentary Colombian coffee at Avoeden Cafe, the coffee was delicious!! After my coffee we drove for 45minutes to Santa Elena, the landscape was beautiful and we made a quick stop to try corn cakes with fresh cheese and hot chocolate after that we visited a very authentic Flower farm own by a flower farmer and his wife we had a magnificent time learning the history of the silletas and seeing unique flowers. I strongly recommend this tour.
