Nice tour - Had a nice tour with Orion! He was an energetic guide. We went to the big rock, village, and guatape city center, and had a boat tour.

Day filled with activities - A truly amazing experience! First stop for breakfast arepas, second we went to the large boulder (700+ steps), third we went the little town of guatepe. It’s so vibrant and colorful. Afterwards we had lunch (the woman who cooked had mentioned she got up early this morning to cook the feast) it was very flavorful with plant based options. Lastly we took a boat to the ‘lips island’ for a swim. The water was refreshing after a hot day.

Fantastic eco and history tour of Guatapé - Alejandro and Natalia were our guides and they were fantastic! The tour was excellently organised and the information from Alejandro and Natalia was really interesting. We appreciated the energy they shared with us, but also the opportunity to go and explore by ourselves! I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing Guatapé and learning about the history and the ecology.

Amazing and worth it! - An amazing experience! Its a great mixture of planned, tour guide specific activities with schedule time to explore. The breakfast was great, lunch was sooo delicious, fresh and it was a pleasure to speak with the owner of the farm. Remember to bring small bills if you want to do any shopping, but many places in the town allowed for cards with a 3-5% fee (standard in Colombia). BIG SHOUT OUT to my brother Juan, our amazing tour guide. He was super friendly, kind, thoughtful, funny, very good vibes. Juan is very knowledgeable and was providing info outside of the tour experience to enrich our time in Medellin.

Awesome Trip! - Orion was an awesome tour guide! The food was a typical Colombian meal and was really tasty. The views for the top of the Peñón were amazing, but just consider to bring comfortable shoes and water.

Great day trip from Medellín - Very Nice tour, well organized. Alejandro was a very good guide. Guatapé is quite Lively although quite touristy. I encourage you to swim in the lake. Very refreshing, although this should be done after the climb of El Peñon. The lunch in a private home was excellent and a great choisi away from the crowd.
