My 3 friends & I were faced with a situation that I imagine happens to a lot of tourists in a foreign city .... we had to check out of our Airbnb in the morning, but our flight was at night and we had no where to put our bags. To complicate matters more, there were a few key activities in Medellin that we weren't able to get to.

Reached out to Guanabana and they made it happen! We got picked up from our Airbnb in an SUV with an English-speaking guide (way way better English than you often find in those "free walking tours"). He drove us to Communa 13 where he arranged for a local to show us around and give us a more authentic experience. The Communa 13 guide even took us to her mother's house!! (to put things in perspective, we had signed up for a free walking tour of Communa 13 the previous day and left halfway through because our huge group of 30+ was extremely akwards wherever we would go...with Guanabana, we were only 4 + 1 guide!)

Afterwards, we were taken by our Guanabana guide to a delicious restaurant frequented only by locals. One of the best, and cheapest meals we had in Medellin (especially when compared to restaurants in Poblado). From there, we were able to squeeze in a quick trip to the Botanical Gardens.

On the way to the airport, our guide took us to an amazing viewing point of Medellin from the top of the mountain. Something you would never see if you were just taking a taxi or shuttle to the airport.

All in all, great experience with Guanabana. You really get what you pay for in a white glove service, English-speaking, thorough group of people that know exactly what they are doing. Would recommend to future visitors to Medellin for sure.

Hello and thank you for your review. We are very happy to hear you enjoyed your last day in Medellín and we are very happy we could help your party out with your Airbnb situation because as you say, it happens quite a lot. It is in our standard operating procedure when this is the case to pick our clients up for tour in the morning and put all their belongings in our SUVs, do our fun activities during the day, and then drop them off directly at the airport. With Guanabana Tours you can count on our support and flexibility, we specialise in personalised customer service, we only do small private groups, and we are the best at making things happen for our clients. Thank you for pointing out that our English speaking team members have a higher than average English proficiency, we know how valuable this is for our clients when they find themselves in a country with very few English speaking people (but it's getting better). Our Comuna 13 guide was born and raised in the 13, seen a lot and has been first-hand witness to the amazing transformation the neighborhood has gone through and she is very passionate about street art too. Thank you for recommending us and we look forward to your next visit to do more fun stuff in Colombia.

I would definitely recommend Guanabana Tours to my family and friends. I recommend them 100%. I have used them 3 times already and they are always very professional, serious and punctual. I have nothing but good things to say about this company and I am in fact, pleasantly surprised by their great service. When in Colombia I wouldn’t use anyone else. We booked an excursion and unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate and my group and I were not able to complete the excursion. They were very patient and even though we did some part of the tour they refunded all of us 100% without any hassles. If you are looking for professional and excellent service Guanabana Tours it is. You will not be disappointed.

Hello and thank you for your review. The Forgotten Road bike tour is a fascinating ride down a magical mountain road that drops over 2,000 mts, but sometimes mother nature decides a good downpour is called for, so the tour must be stopped. It was a lot of fun even when the whole group got soaking wet and ended up finding shelter in a horse stable with some very friendly local campesinos and some very wet, surprised, and happy dogs. Thank you for choosing us again for the third time and thank you for pointing out that we are always professional, serious, and punctual. That's the name of our game. We hope to have you with us again for the fourth time and that you get to experience The Forgotten Road in full, it will be guaranteed to be the highlight of your next visit to Colombia. Regards from the Team.

this was an amazing experience! It’s really felt very personal. From the time we were picked up the driver was amazing. It was convenient that he spoke English! He was willing to provide a lot of information about the city and things to do and also the cities history and its people during the long ride in. Once we arrived at the facilities for the excursion the staff was very attentive as well. I would definitely recommend this company and the ATV tour through the jungle. We did the two hours but I will definitely up for the three hour Tour next time.

Hello and thank you for your review. All our drivers speak English for the convenience of our client friends. They are locals so they know all the history of Medellín and Colombia and are proud to share. Thank you for recommending our company and our ATV tours, they are truly designed to be the right mix of adrenaline, beauty, and safety. We will be waiting for you next time for the 3 hour ATV tour, our most extreme one. Regards from the Team.

Our group really enjoyed this sightseeing experience around Guatapé, the Stone and the paragliding! The beauty of Colombia and this region is unmatched. Even the drive is part of the tour... everything is so lush and green. The journey up the stone is a sight to behold, the town of Guatapé is so colourful and lovely, I really recommend walking around! And finally, flying above Cocorná is an experience I'll never forget... and they get you up there right away, super efficient! Our driver, Leo, was really great, always gave us all our options, explained many things and was very patient. I highly recommend this tour and Guanabana Tour company!

Enduro motorcycle tour:
Adventure has a face and it's Guanabana enduro ride. A safe pace and packed with more sights that you can imagine. Exceeded my expectations from the start to the finish. My guide from my hotel to the tour compound (Ulrich) knew so much about the flora and fauna i thought for sure he was a Biodiversity specialist...turns out he's just a big fan of his country. Great start to a great day . The equipment is all new and the guide knows everything about everything. The locals along the trails are pleasant and your greeted with smiles. I'm not a great rider and Juan customized the route to fit my abilities. I never could have planned such a great trip. Very forgiving terrain, great lunch at historic Concepcion hotel.
Such beautiful farm country with so many rolling hills and beautiful ridges to ride along while looking down and beautiful valleys. They make it very easy to want to come back for more :)

Hello and thank you for your review. We are very happy to hear that you had such a great time and enjoyed our new motorcycle rally tour so much. Riding a motorcycle over back roads and forest trails, crossing creeks, eating in small, rural, mountain-top towns completely off the beaten path, and meeting local country folk that have never seen a foreigner in their life make for quite the adrenaline and cultural experience. We eagerly look forward to your next visit to try another motorcycle rally route or any of the other cool stuff that we do. Regards from the team.

We had a great experience with Guanabana tours. We trusted these guys with our entire trip- Guatape, ATV, paragliding, and rafting. We loved each experience and enjoyed the food/company throughout the trip. Rafting and ATV were my favorites but all of the above are worth doing. Highly recommend using this tour company- they are timely, friendly, and give good advice for local things to do in Colombia.

A group of my guys visited during a bachelor party trip. We did the ATV + paragliding + white water rafting tour and it was extremely fun. It was also very efficient. I feel like everything went smoothly and quickly; no long bouts of waiting between activities. Each activity was a good amount of time- other excursion places I’ve been to in other places can be a bit rushed and you feel shorted on time. But each one lasts the perfect duration. Additionally all of our guides where super welcoming, personable, and friendly. 10/10 experience worth every penny.

Hello and thank you for your review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your day trip with us, one of our most active tours. Thank you for pointing out the efficiency of our tours. Grouping together multiple activities into one day is our specialty, we pioneered these tours in Colombia and worked hard to design them, and we are happy and grateful to see how much fun they bring to our visitors to Colombia. We also believe the guides make the experience. Having welcoming, personable, and friendly guides are a must, otherwise, the experience will not be totally satisfactory. Thank you for giving us a 10/10, we look forward to your next visit to Colombia to do more fun stuff, the Guanabana way.

Absolutely phenomenal group trip with Guanabana. Seamless transport to and from all activities (ATV, paragliding, white water rafting). Guides were fun, interactive, accommodating and informative. Very accessible throughout the duration of our trip; thought of all contingencies and reacted very quickly. Would highly recommend to any and all. Great times with Guanabana!!

Guanabana organized a great day trip for us to do the tunnel tour and then go canyoning. Significant emphasis on safety which we appreciated. After canyoning we had a delicious lunch in town. The logistics and communication before, during, and after the tour were wonderful. We are glad we chose Guanabana and would recommend it to friends and family!

Hello and thank you for your review. The Tunnel & Canyoning Tour starts off with an amazing ride on a railroad dolly through an ancient tunnel dug out by hand. Then comes the canyoning down fantastic waterfalls. Thank you for pointing out that safety is our number one priority. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your tour, the typical Colombian lunch, and that you recommend us to friends and family. We look forward to your next visit to do more cool stuff in Colombia the Guanabana way. Regards from the team.

We did the ATV and rafting tour, this is the second time we book tours with Guanabana and it has been a superb experience. All the tour guides are very knowledgeable, attentive, and accommodating. We will definitely book another tour when we are back in town.

Hello and thank you for your review. It is always an honor to receive repeat customers with us. We consider them friends and it is always a joy to see them again. The whitewater rafting experience on our tour is thrilling and adrenaline-packed, with our certified guides making sure you have the best time riding down the class III/IV rapids safely. ATVing in Colombia is almost magical. Our green cool forests are only missing fairies and leprechauns! We very much look forward to having you with us again doing more adventure tours the Guanabana way. Regards from the entire Guanabana team.
