Hidden Gem - Hidden gem in Medellin. Juan is a great host and tour guide. He’s kind, friendly and full of great stories to tell about this beautiful farm. It was fantastic being able to gather eggs from chickens, to milk and feed cows, to ride horses and feed horses. The views were spectacular and the meals were excellent. Everyone in the family there was friendly and welcoming. So far this has been the best experience I’ve had in Medellin. I would recommend this to anyone with a love for animals, culture and adventure.

Memorable horseback ride in the Andes. - This finca offers a delicious breakfast, interaction with farm animals, a beautiful location, delicious coffee and the absolute highlight of the trip was the horseback ride. Aquiles, a well trained obedient and loving horse was my companion for a memorable ride in the mountains with beautiful scenery. Juan, the guide, made this trip extra special with his warmth, professionalism and passion for ensuring each guest had a great safe ride.

Please go! Please visit! - I highly recommend this experience for both Colombians and travelers from any country! The views are beautiful, the horses and other little animals are super well kept, the food is delicious and the hosts are very friendly. Juan José and his team make sure that the visitor feels very well taken care of from start to finish. It is a nice plan to enjoy nature near Medellin. I would happily repeat!

A Soul-Soothing Experience at Juan’s Finca - This family-run finca tour was truly therapeutic and peaceful. I especially enjoyed our host, Juan—his hospitality, warmth, and down-to-earth nature made the experience unforgettable. His good energy set the tone for the entire visit. The animals were another highlight: healthy, clean, with shiny coats and gentle temperaments. They seemed to reflect Juan’s kind spirit, as if his warmth extended to them too. Horseback riding through the mountains and into the wooded areas was incredibly relaxing. Listening to the natural sounds all around felt like receiving a Swedish massage for the soul. Feeding the animals—especially the baby calf, who literally jumped with excitement when it was time to eat—is an image that will stay with me forever. I highly recommend this tour—you won’t regret it.

Unforgettable experience! Loved every second of it - This was a very special day for me. I did what I’ve been wanting to do for a very long time—milk a cow! When we first arrived, I knew from the get go that this was the place I had visioned. When we arrived all the animals welcomed us with so much love and you were able to see how happy they all were to be there. It felt like I went back in time when I visited my grandparents the moment I walked into the house. The energy I felt was very peaceful and the story behind how it was built made it even more special. I fell in love with every corner, the decoration, the sound, and the smell. I wish I could write everything I experienced but I’ll let this place surprise you and let you create your own memories. You will meet Estela, Saúl, and Juan Jose. The most caring and welcoming people. Estela made us a delicious breakfast and coffee (tinto). Saúl walk me through the process of milking a cow and feeding a calf. He knew this was my first time so seeing his face full of joy watching me with my boots, my hat, a bucket, and full of energy doing what I think was one of the best experiences in my life was something that made me build a special connection with him. He told me if a calf was born that month, he was going to name her after me and HE DID!! There is now a little cow named “Andrea”. What a wonderful gesture Saúl had with me and definitely became a sweet story to tell. After all my hard work, our day was not over, we went horseback riding in the mountains. The ride was full of adventure and surprises. The view was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I took so many pictures and videos and came back home with so many unforgettable memories. This place had everything I was looking for. I am forever thankful with Juan Jose, Saúl, and Estela for making me feel so special <3.

Amazing tour! - This farm was the highlight of our trip! Juan Jose was an amazing host! He was very punctual and picked us up from our Air B&B and dropped us back off at the end of the tour. Estella was very sweet and prepared a delicious breakfast. Saul was also very attentive and nice ! The farm and views from the farm were amazing. All the animals where very well taken care of. The horseback ride was beautiful and a very unique experience that gave you the time to connect with each horse in a beautiful pasture at the top of a hill. Everyone that was part from this tour was very special and made us feel very welcomed. Highly recommend this tour and would love to return to the farm in the near future!

It was a nice trip.... - It was a nice trip. Beautiful area and a fun ride. Nice breakfast and snacks. An excellent breakfast. They also have an interesting parrot, many dogs, and, among the cows, one that is essentially a large fig. The people were great. While you don’t need to be a good rider, I’m not sure it’s great for someone riding a horse for the first time and/or is very nervous about it.
