We did this tour with this company and our tour guide was Joshua. It was a completely private tour and he was on time to pick us up at our hotel. Lots of communication prior to our tour, during our tour, and Joshua was an absolutely knowledgeable guide. Our whole day was full of interesting information about medellin, Harare, Colombia, all of it. We are foreigners, so we knew that we wanted a tour but we didn’t know which one. I would pick this tour company and guide for any and all future tour of ours. If you’re looking for a very professional, knowledgeable, and private/special tour, look no further than this one. Thanks again Joshua and Caman Tours
Had a great time With our tour guide Joshua showing us around and helping us find the best activities
We had a great experience with Joshua as our private guide! He was knowledgeable and a pleasure to talk to / spend the day with. He was on time to pick us up at our hotel, flexible with our plans, and very patient. Highly recommend this tour and highly recommend working with Joshua as your guide!
Camantours offers an excellent tour to Guatape, the reservoir, and the rock. Our guide was Camilo, who is perfectly prepared and friendly. The tour is very comprehensive, and you are allowed to move at your own pace without rush or pressure. It is highly recommended.
I had a great tour with Joshua. Joshua picked me up promptly from my hotel in Laureles. He was very friendly and easy to talk to… and as a Spanish student, he was nice enough to keep the whole tour in Spanish, even though I could tell his English is good. I saw El Peñol, and climbed all 714 steps. Well worth the climb as the view is spectacular. Then we went to Guatape township and took a walk through and around. Finally we finished up with a lunch in the township where I tried the local trout and it was great. We got back almost exactly after 8 hours. I would recommend this trip and the tour company.
We had an amazing experience with Joshua as our private guide! He was knowledgeable and a pleasure to talk to / spend the day with. He was flexible with our plans and we got to experience even more than we anticipated. Highly recommend this tour and highly recommend working with Joshua as your guide!
Had a very lovely private trip with Camilo as our guide in April 2026. He was very knowledgeable and flexible, so we were able to see Guatape before it got very busy and do other things later. Thanks to Camilo, we had a superb time.
Thank you Camantours Medellin for your service, amazing, organized; my Josshua tour guide a professional, friendly, charismatic, very educated; I felt relaxed, safe and happy all the time. I would love to repeat another adventure with your service. Simply put, SENSATIONAL... Thank you.
We had an incredible tour of Comuna 13 in Medellín. It was such a meaningful experience to learn about the history of the neighborhood, its transformation over the years, and the resilience of the community. Our guide, Joshua, was knowledgeable and engaging, sharing powerful stories that gave us a deeper understanding of Comuna 13’s past and its vibrant culture today. The street art, music, and energy of the area made the tour both educational and inspiring. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Medellín!
Deciding to venture out on my own while the rest of my travel group rested from the night before, I journeyed with Camantours guide Camilo to Alto Del Chocho, New Peñol, El Peñol, and Guatapé. Well acquainted with Medellín, Camilo provided fascinating insights about Medellín specifically and Colombia generally. An affable gentleman with a generous spirit, he made the entire experience like I was traveling safely with a good friend. Our wide-ranging conversations between the full-day tour stops were as entertaining and enlightening as the actual stops. From delicious pan de bono y café in Alto Del Chocho and beautiful vistas atop el Peñol to vibrant zocalos and magnificent church architecture in Guatapé, the experience was a memorable one! Thank you! I will tell friends and family to book with Camatours for all of their travel needs in Medellín. Rrrrrrapido!
