          Great tour!
          My sister and I did the private tour with Sara (I highly recommend that you do the tour with her!) and we had an amazing time! We started off at a local fruit market where Sara helped us pick various regional fruits, all of which were delicious! After the market, we climbed El Peñol and, then, went to Guatape where we had a delicious bandeja paisa at a restaurant Sara recommended (did not disappoint!). We spent some time exploring the town and finished the day with a tour at Finca La Rivera. The coffee at Finca La Rivera is delicious! Highly recommend this tour!!!

          El Peñol, Guatape, and coffee farm in one trip with a great guide
          Erika was an excellent tour guide. She arrived on time, was very friendly and knowledgeable, and attentive to our needs and interests. The views from the rock were spectacular, and we loved the town of Guatape. We appreciated the opportunity to visit a small family coffee farm in the same trip, and enjoyed a freshly brewed cup of coffee before the drive back. The fruit tasting was an added bonus - Erika found eleven (!) fruits that we had never even heard of before for us to taste. Overall, a great day with an outstanding guide!

          Amazing experience, definitely would recommend
          This tour was amazing! Our guide was very informative and friendly. The farm we visited was beautiful & the family who own the farm made us feel very welcomed. We got to try the cocoa through each step of the process & even make our own chocolate bar which was super cool. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who wants an authentic Colombian experience!

          Amazing hikes, views, and guide
          Amazing pictures and a wonderful experience. The day trip was led by Sarah, who was a fantastic guide and gave us a through and informative insight into life in Medellin and on the farms. Sarah also clearly had an established relationship with the families who ran the farms, and gave us some insight into how people live and thrive in the countryside. Sarah also had great patience when we ran into traffic, and ensured we had adequate rest and food throughout.

          Excellent tour
          Sara and this tour were incredible. I loved getting the tour of the farm and a taste of life in Medellin. The family there were incredible. Sara was the best part because she was so knowledgeable but also so engaging and energetic. It was an excellent day.

          Loved the coffee tour
          My family loved this experience. We felt our guide Diana was very knowledgeable and enjoyed her information shared and energy. Watching the whole coffee process was wonderful for the family and the tasting area in the family home was beautiful. Highly recommend!

          Wonderful cultural experience + great food!
          Wonderful food + a great cultural experience as well. Sara was super informative and knowledgeable of the Medellín region and its history. She did a wonderful job of explaining everything in English and we enjoyed all of the food spots she picked for us. Our tour earlier in the day was running behind schedule and she was very accommodating and waited 30 minutes for us since it was a private tour so that we could still do everything. Absolutely worth doing and I highly recommend booking on a weekend evening as it was super cool to see the town square all set up for the weekend market.

          Private Horseback Riding Tour
          This was by far the best horseback riding experience me and my fiance have ever had. The views were absolutely beautiful, we had so much fun, and our tour guide Laura was the best! You won’t regret booking this tour especially if you have Laura as your tour guide.

        Diana was our guide and she was absolutely delightful! She has such passion for her country and knowledge of history and surroundings. When we stopped to get fruit at a local market, she wasn’t just fulfilling the stop on the tour she was genuinely excited to share new things with our children. She maneuvered the crowds and snagged us tickets faster than the line at La Piedra del Penol. We had a well-paced stop in the town of Guatape - not too much detail for the kids but enough detail to engage. As a bonus, she always knew all the best spots for a quick family picture and is a talented photographer! Aside from the tour itself, communication via WhatsApp with Andres was so efficient, clear and easy!

        Visiting Medellin, Guatapé was highly recommended to visit! So very happy we did and with ERIKA! She provided the history of Old Guatapé and how the city had to reinvent herself where it presides now. The shoreline around the Peñol was created, that’s wild, and it’s so much more than climbing the Inselberg rock formation. The views at the rock are breathtaking, but to see it from water is refreshing as well - we took a private boat and enjoyed the views with drink in hand. Then we visited the town of Guatapé - touted as one of the most colorful towns in the world. The Zocalo drawings on all the Buildings make it beautiful and different - could definitely stay a night in this colorful town! We also enjoyed an exotic fruit tasing, which was amazing!!!! Erika was took some many pics of us and I’m grateful for her elite service from dining options in town to playing with my youngest son because she is just that sweet! Ask for her if you can, you won’t be disappointed!!

        Our guide, Juan Camilo, was the consummate professional. My friends and I considered this trip our favorite during our stay in Medellín. He was very knowledgeable of the history of the area, provided great banter, and went out of his way to make sure we had a good time at every step of the trip. 10/10 would recommend to everyone!

        We booked a trip to Guatape and the process was very easy. The company was very responsive. Our tour was with Erika and she was a great, very knowledgeable and helpful guide. We learned so much about the area we traveled and also about Colombia. She picked great places for stops, coffee, snacks and also lunch I would recommend this company and especially guide Erika to everyone who would like travel comfortably, safely and learn about the area.

        Sara, our tour guide, was great in helping us decide the right time and itinerary for Guatapé! She recommended going early to beat all the crowds and even provided us snacks / water to help us with the early wake up time. We thoroughly enjoyed our walk up the Rock and hearing more about the history of the rock, reservoir, and church. My friend was looking for emeralds and Sara knew all the right shops to find the best jewlrey and more. If you want a stress-free, personalized experience we highly recommend

        The tour covered drive to Guatape rock, fruit tasting, walk through Guatape village and lunch.

        My guide Erika was amazing telling me about the history of the rock and reservoir as we drove to it. The climb up the rock is fun and provides amazing views of the man made lake.

        The most enjoyable part of the trip was the walk through Guatape village with its artistic and colourful homes. We had lunch in a beautiful restaurant with views of the reservoir.

        I also did a fruit tasting with Erika and loved it.

        The tour was amazing we had so much fun despite the rain. The rock was a lot of steps but worth the view. Guatape was picturesque. The best part of the entire tour was Sara. She was amazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly. She brought us to the fruit stand and explained everything while we tasted the delicious fruits. She answered every question and gave us many recommendations for Medellin as well as other locations we were traveling. I would recommend any tour with Sara.

        We had a private tour with our guide Erika. It was a great experience she was very co-operative never rushed us gave us ample time we did the tour at our own pace though it was a planned itinerary but she accommodated what ever special requests we had. It was the best experience in Columbia as Erika was fluent in English and was well versed with the history of the area and she was very precise with the information she provided never crossing the line and becoming boring. If I ever go back I know whom to contact. Thanks Erika!

        Our tour guide Sarah was superb. She was incredibly friendly, talkative, informative, genuine and fun all day long. She essentially became our friend and part of the day itself! The tour from start to finish was a lot of fun with fruit tasting, visiting El Penol and a great time in Guatapé itself. She showed us the entire town as opposed to just focusing on the main few streets. This was a very nice touch.

        She is a wonderful person and honestly made the day so much better

        Would highly recommend

        Erika made our Guatape day trip excellent. She never pressured us, had good recommendations, was very knowledgeable, and communications were on point. Guatape was a big highlight of our Colombia trip. Landslides caused hours delay going to Guatape; and even though the tour says it's supposed to end approximately 4pm--we got back around 9pm already. Erika was great all throughout. I can't imagine how tired she must've been. We opted to have the fruits tasting after everything else, and again, we never felt rushed.
        Highly recommend this tour operator and especially Erika! Thanks muchas gracias!!!!
