Better with a guide! - Great trip! The guide was fantastic and the views were beautiful. The guide helps give you trails and routes you probably wouldn’t find on your own.

Phenomenal Must-Do Activity in Medellín! - We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with tour guide Wilder! If you are visiting Medellín as a family this is a must-do activity, preferably private, if you can. Communication by both the travel agency and Wilder were in English and top notch from beginning to end. We were picked up from our hotel on time and safely transported to the meeting point where we met up with Wilder. We took the Metro and 2 cable cars to Arvi Park. It was great seeing and experiencing the public transportation system in Medellín. We were happy to have Wilder’s guidance navigating the lines and processes at the train station and with the cable cars. Figuring it out alone would be possible but likely stressful. The views of the city and neighborhoods from the cable cars were stunning. Wilder described what we were seeing and provided the historical background each step of the way. Arvi Park did not disappoint. We felt so immersed in nature. Be prepared to walk but it’s absolutely worth it. Wear comfortable sneakers or hiking shoes. We were able to go at a comfortable pace for our 8-year old. Might be more difficult for a younger child unless they are accustomed to hiking. The streams and waterfall were so beautiful. We would have never been able to discover most of these sights on our own. It took about half a day. We went on a Wednesday morning and the crowds got bigger towards the early afternoon (primarily for transportation). Arvi Park didn’t feel crowded, maybe because it’s huge. This activity exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend this experience!

A wonderful break from the city , with a great guide Alejandro - Ask for Alejandro! He delivered a great day for us. We loved being out in a beautiful peaceful setting and he made the day even more special. Very attentive, patient and he has great English . We enjoyed the scenic drive, the metrocable return trip, the great hike to the waterfall and we enjoyed a perfect paisa chorizo / Arepa lunch cooked in the campground by locals enjoying the park. It was a lovely respite from the city . The artisanal market , coffee and pastries at the top were also great. Low pressure environment for browning the crafts . Highly recommend. And wear good solid walking shoes to go into the forest

Arvi Park and Waterfall. - Arvi Park is beautiful. The terrain around the waterfall has lots of uneven surfaces with tree roots and rocks. Be sure to wear the proper shoes.
