All went smooth as described , tour guides oscar and hernan were friendly and good , itinerary was on schedule 100% no delays. Enough time at each stop. Breakfast was okay , lunch's size was dissapointing but it is as described. My only suggestion for the tour operator is improving communication , we had requested hotel pickup , days before the tour we were ghosted up to 8 pm the day before the tour. This was unnecessary uncertainty, when you have limited time in the city every second counts. I spent a lot of time worrying and trying to contact the tour operator via instagram, viator and whatsapp So if you need 100% certainty i would book another tour. If you are flexible and can afford to reschedule, this one will do just fine , but at that point you might as well pay a bit more to have your itinerary secure.

All the positives mentioned yes. A few things to improve: 1) no communication about pickup detail until I reached Gigi tour myself; they never replied message on Viator. 2) bus is not air conditioned and can be windy; and a full bus can be quite crammed. Must praise the tour guide Philip who speaks super good English and organized well.

Such a good tour for this price! Oscar did such a good job, he helped with everything we needed (especially about vegan food) Definitely recommend if you want a diverse experience for a cheap price:)

It was my second visit to Guatapé. I really enjoyed the experience with Gigi Tours. The time I spent visiting the sites was different than my first visit (with another company), and I really enjoyed the Peñol because it wasn't as crowded. Hernán was our tour operator, very friendly, and I really liked that he didn't play silly games, sing, or get to know each other bs. However, he did tell us very useful and important information about the history of the sites and fun facts. The bathroom stop/ visit to the llamas was wonderful! The food was also good, considering the price. Overall, a good experience.
