An unforgettable experience

5.00My husband and I are vacationing in Medellín for the first time and knew we wanted to visit Guatapé but not have to change base location. I found this tour online which hit all the places I’d been told to go. From the very start, Sebastian was very communicative. Everything was laid out and very clear. His team also runs a very tight ship to guarantee you have maximum time at each stop. Our guide, Ale, was excellent. She flowed from Spanish to English easily giving important histories and instructions for each stop. She also shared some candy with us on the bus (perks of riding up front). A big kudos to our driver Alexis as well; lots of tight corners and traffic and he did it with ease. Overall I would highly recommend to anyone coming to Medellín. It is a long day though so come well rested and in comfortable clothes, especially if you are climbing! I would easily rate this tour as one of my favorites and I’ve traveled to nearly 20 countries at this point.

5.00This was a fantastic experience—we saw and did so much in one day. Sebastian was an excellent coordinator from start to finish, checking in multiple times before and after the tour to ensure everything was well organized. Our guide, Valentina, was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, providing great insight at every stop. It was a long day, but absolutely worth it. The included breakfast and lunch were also very good and a nice bonus. Highly recommend!

5.00Ale was an outstanding tour guide who made the experience around El Peñol both enjoyable and stress-free. Ale kept the group perfectly on schedule while always making sure everyone felt safe and well looked after. The explanations about each attraction were clear, precise, and informative, with just the right amount of detail to keep things engaging without ever feeling overwhelming. It was also greatly appreciated that the tour agency thoughtfully provided water before the climb up El Peñol, which made the ascent much more comfortable for everyone. Overall, highly recommended.
