It Doesn't Get Better Than This - What a great day with Erika at Guatape and El Peñol. She took meticulous care of us but also gave us options for everything from activities, and schedule, to independent time. Highly recommended: both Erika and the folks at Medellin Day Trips who made it all easy and fun.

Amazing private Guatape Day Tour - We had an amazing day with Daniel and Medellin Day Trips! I highly recommend this company due to their punctuality, excellent communication and knowledgeable guides. We were picked up on time, went straight to climb the rock, followed by Guatape town tour, a boat ride and fruit tasting in El Pelol. Our guide was very informative about the history of Guatape and the area. He was very helpful on recommending good local stores for souvenirs and lunch. He took lots of photos for us and sent them right after our tour. The SUV we were in was very nice and clean. We did the private coffee farm tour with them the next day.

Excellent Private Guatape Tour - Highly recommend this tour! Daniel was our guide and he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the history of Guatape and El Penol. We loved the tour around Guatape and picked out several souvenirs from local stores. We then took a boat ride around the lake and saw the various highlights. Our last stop was at a market in El Penol where we tried various fruits from Colombia. Our guide was very punctual and Medellin Day Trips is an excellent communicator and followed up with us before and after both of the private tours we booked with them. Highly recommend this company.

Highlight of our trip - Erika made our tour unforgettable! We learned more on our tour about the history, culture and environment of Colombia than in any book and it was so much more enjoyable! The rock and the boat trip were wonderful and so was Erika’s company. 10:10 recommend

Incredible day trip and guide - What a great day, picked up at our hotel and taken out of the city to a beautiful landscape of farms and flowers. We had fruits I had never eaten and enjoyed, went to the El Penol and Guatape, took a boat ride in the dam, climbed 740 steps to the top of Guatape rock and explored the Pueblo. Our guide Laura was fantastic, knew all the history of where we visited and was very personable and caring. She made our experience unforgettable.

Fantastic 10/10 Guatapé Tour – Safe, Scenic, and Absolutely Worth It - We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Daniel who was our guide in Medellín. He is incredibly knowledgeable, highly educated, and speaks excellent English. His car was very comfortable, and we felt safe and well taken care of the entire day. He took us on a full-day trip to Guatapé, where we enjoyed stunning views from La Piedra and a relaxing stroll through downtown Guatapé. We had a delicious lunch at one of the restaurants he recommended – all of his suggestions were authentic, fairly priced, and truly great local spots. He also arranged an excellent boat ride with a local guide on the Guatapé reservoir, which became one of the highlights of the day. To top it all off, we ended the trip at a very authentic fruit market where we tried a variety of exotic Colombian fruits – such a unique and memorable experience. Overall, it was a 10 out of 10 day. The experience was amazing, incredibly scenic, and absolutely worth every penny. We highly recommend this guide to anyone visiting Medellín – you will see the beauty of Guatapé in a safe, comfortable, and unforgettable way. And one more sign of how much we loved this tour: we enjoyed the experience so much that we booked him again for the very next day - for a family-run coffee farm experience - that we enjoyed just as much!
