The value was incredible and I would do this again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend everyone to do this tour. Also note it’s helpful to have cash to buy souvenirs during this tour.

Fantastic tour of Guatape! - Fantastic day trip to Guatape! After breakfast we started with climbing to the top of El Peñòn. Definitely recommend getting a bottle of water! I got to the top in 20 minutes (which is average) but not without a lot of stops on the way. Totally worth it with the view from the top! Our guide, Ginna was wonderful; she really was able to explain to us the history of the area which made each stop that much more special . The 11 hour day flew by as it was broken up into parts. We made some great new friends along the way, so much so that we all went for drinks and food after the tour! Absolute must tour!

Highly recommend this English speaking tour. - Timing at each stop was well planned. Variety and interest was very good at each venue with our guide giving us excellent relevant and helpful information. Breakfast and lunch was good. Our guide Marlon Palacio was passionate, knowledgeable, caring and very organised as well as a great sense of humour. He also spoke excellent English. Our driver Andrew was excellent.

Fun day! - All around a fun day...comfortable bus ride to Guatape...stopped first for breakfast which was included in the tour price...on to El Penol rock, about a 700 stair climb which took about 15-20 minutes...great views at the top...then drove to the town of Guatape where we were free to explore on our own for a while...one of the most colorful towns I've ever seen, enjoyed walking around shopping and seeing all the colorful designs...on to lunch which was also included...beans, rice, salad, plantain, and choice of entree...then a boat ride with lakeside mansions and a final view of El Penol...finally a stop to feed the llamas before heading back to Medellin...left around 7am, got back around 530pm...enjoyed the company of meeting other travelers from around the world...our guide Marlon was very lively and upbeat and kept us well informed...I highly recommend this tour.
