AMAZING private tours around Medellin and Guatape and El Penol. - This review is long overdue, but I highly recommend booking all of your Medellin area tours with Feliciano and Oscar. My husband and I booked multiple private tours with them, and they were worth EVERY penny, and EXTREMELY reasonably priced. They are both so extremely intelligent, knowledgeable, courteous, and flexible, allowing us to customize our time as we wish. Not having to worry about navigation, parking, or where to go or how to do it made our time there so stress-free. They were punctual and the vehicle was immaculate and comfortable. They know so much about Colombian history and just extra little details about each place we visited, giving us as close of an insight that we will ever have into what it is like to live in such a beautiful and culturally rich country. We will never forget our trip to Colombia, and it could not and would not have been the same with these amazing men as our tour guides.

The Peñol tour was one of the best experiencespr I have ever lived in Colombia. Personally, I loved everything from e - The Peñol tour was an unforgettable experience. From the beginning, the organization and punctuality were excellent. Climbing the more than 700 steps of the Peñol Stone was completely worth it for the panoramic view of Guatapé, a stunning natural spectacle. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, enthusiastically explaining the history and culture of the place. We also visited the colorful town of Guatapé, famous for its picturesque baseboards. Every corner was perfect for photos. I definitely recommend this tour to those who visit Colombia. It is a perfect mix of adventure, nature and culture that cannot be missed

Feliciano is an excellent guide, helpful and cheerful. - On this excursion nis accompanied the charming guide, named Feliciano. He is a very friendly, helpful young man who answered us questions related to the country, its customs and traditions. Plus he drives very well. I will give the recommendation to any family member or friend who comes to Medellin to hire Feliciano. Good luck and thank you very much for your excellent services. Hugs Doris Cordero Switzerland
