Guatape: A cultural walkthrough

Guatape was our second tour with Sebastian. And yet again, he delivered. It felt more like a road trip with a friend than a guided tour. Seeing Guatape and the surrounding scenery was truly amazing and I highly recommend the hike to the top. However, the real experience for us was walking the streets of Guatape after our hike. We had time to grab a tinto with Sebastian and then gain some cultural perspective of the town. And to cap it all off, San cocho at a local spot that was delicious. 10/10 would recommend!
Highly recommended and fun!

Colombian Ambassadors and especially Sebastian were simply amazing! The communication is clear and there are no surprises. They pick you up in a very nice and well kept SUV with AC and with enough room. Sebastian has a good eye on reading people and adjusts anything based on the needs and wants of the group. He’s friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable. You are guaranteed a good time. We will always recommend him and the company for this experience. If you want to learn about Guatape, it’s history and it’s people in a relaxed and fun way, look no further.
