Guatapé Tour description

 

During this Guatapé Tour out of Medellín, you will visit one of the most unique pueblos in Colombia where the beautiful views from the top of the Rock of El Peñol make this a must-see tour destination. Enjoy colorful farmland in the proximity of El Peñol as a mouth-opener to the wonderful views that you will get from the Rock. Climbing the 700+ stairs to the top of the 220-meter-high rock offers 360-degree breathtaking views of the surrounding areas. But if you're not into climbing stairs, we can spend extra time exploring the colorfully painted facades (zócalos) of Guatapé's houses and walking along the waterfront in town. As an optional activity and at an additional cost, we can include a boat ride around the lake that takes us past vacation houses of famous and infamous Colombian celebrities.

We really enjoyed our tour of Comuna 13 with Alejandro! He was knowledgeable and we felt like we were touring with a local from the community who knew its history and people. He was also so knowledgeable of the history of Colombia as a whole and thoughtfully answered our many questions. Perry Forrester

My wife and I booked the this tour and let me tell you.....it was nothing short of amazing! There isn't a nicer, safer, and more kind tour guide than Andres. Born and raised in Medellin, he has an unmeasurable amount of knowledge about the local area and Colombia in general. We learned first-hand how coffee beans are picked, graded, sorted, and shipped to the local co-op for grading and additional packaging. You will taste and learn what makes the finest coffee in the world. To put things into perspective, I think that coffee beans are more scrutinized than grapes are for fine wine. This is a private tour....just you and Andres. We will absolutely book another tour in the future. It will be Guatape or the Medellin tour.

Another great trip with land venture. Viewing coffee making at a small farm not at all touristy. Visited Concordia which was lovely. Great guide in Andres.

I had a great tour to Guatape. Andres was a very informative guide and I would recommend the tour to anyone wishing to see that area of Colombia.
