Great Guatape Guided Gad-about! - Oscar is a great communicator and provided all the info we needed before hand. He picked us up promptly from our Airbnb. His vehicle was clean and very comfortable. Easy rapport from the start. He is a fount of historical and area knowledge, and is a delightful host. We drove to Guatapé to climb the rock, went into the town and took a great walking tour before stopping for a great lunch. Believe him when he says to bring a raincoat and umbrella, although his trunk is also well stocked with extra umbrellas. We finished the afternoon at a family run coffee farm just outside the town. They were also a delightful family and it is clear Oscar is well-known and loved by them. He in fact did the majority of the tour there and teaching. We got to pick, sort, and go through the process from coffee plant to coffee cup. Throughout the day, Oscar was always very mindful of our needs and able to cater to our interests. We finished out day with a fun fruit-tasting stop at a local market. You will not be disappointed!

Wonderful Guatapé & coffee farm tour - We had the absolute best experience on our private tour with Oscar, every part of the day was enjoyable, well-planned and worth every penny! From the moment Oscar picked up our group of three at our Airbnb until the moment he dropped us off again (almost 12 hours later!), he taught us all about the Medellín and Guatapé áreas along with their local culture, politics, economy and nature. He is so kind & knowledgeable and speaks both English & Spanish perfectly, making it easy for both my parents and I to fully participate in the day’s activities! I recommend him as a guide & this particular tour to anyone visiting Medellín!

Wonderful Guatape and coffee tour! - We had the best time on this tour! Our guide, Julio, was so informative about the tour and Colombian history in general. You could tell how passionate he was about his city and country. The family owned coffee farm was such a unique experience, and we were so excited to stock up on coffee fresh from the farm. Highly recommend this tour, and I hope Julio is your guide!

Exceptional Day Tour to Guatape and coffee farm - I cannot recommend this tour highly enough — it was easily one of the highlights of my trip to Medellín. We started the day with a visit to El Peñol Rock, and climbing to the top was an unforgettable experience. The panoramic views of the lakes and islands surrounding Guatapé are absolutely breathtaking. After descending, we spent time touring the colorful town of Guatapé, learning about its history and the unique murals on the buildings. The real gem of the day was the visit to a small family-run coffee farm. The experience was hands-on and personalized — I got to pick coffee beans, watch the entire process from frsh bean to the roasting process, and sampled the freshest coffee I’ve ever tasted. It was fascinating to see how much care goes into every cup! I met the whole family which made the visit feel warm and authentic. My guide, Oscar, was exceptional. His knowledge of the region, coffee production, and Colombian culture added so much to the tour. He shared a wealth of information and made the day flow effortlessly. This tour is perfect for anyone visiting Medellín. I would encourage everyone to take it; it’s an experience you won’t forget!
