You can not stop visiting Guatapé!!! - In Guatapé we took a boat ride through the reservoir of La Dama. We could learn the history of some properties and the cross that emerges from the lake, replica where the church lay when the village was flooded. We visited the town of guatapé very picturesque and characteristic by its baseboards.
The Rock is an original stone of the place. It has a very interesting story. It has 730 steps. From its summit you can see the reservoir.

I’d like to share some... - I’d like to share some feedback about my driver, David González. He was extremely pleasant and careful throughout the ride. He made a great effort to explain everything in English, which I really appreciated. I can warmly recommend him — an excellent and considerate driver!

I recommend 100% for families - Incredible Experience in Guatapé with this Transportation Enterprise! The modern and super comfortable car, with air conditioning that saved the heat of the day. The driver, Juan, was an expert: he picked us up at the hotel on time and told us local stories as we went to the Stone of the Penol. Climbing the 740 steps was worth it, and the return was relaxed with photo stops. I recommend 100% for families, it feels like traveling with friends!
