Rock climbing and more in Columbia

My wife and I had a great time in Guatape! What a beautiful place with amazing views. Alex, our guide, was very engaging and explained the rich history of all the towns we visited. This is a full day event and well worth the cost of the tour!!

Incredible tour and experience!

Highly recommend Viaje Medellín for the Guatapé day trip! Marlon was an exceptional tour guide—super charismatic, funny, and fluent, keeping the entire group organized and entertained throughout the day. The bus was comfortable, the food was great, and the pace was perfect. Climbing La Piedra del Peñol, cruising the lake, and walking through the colorful streets made for an incredible day. 10/10 experience!

Great tour

This is an all day experience that involves a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes. Extremely fun and educational with opportunities for amazing photo opportunities. Not much to lose as you get multiple things to do in 12 hours. Just be punctual, walk with water and sunscreen and come to have fun!

Our guide was Gina and...

Our guide was Gina and overall, my wife and I agreed it was an awesome tour - 10/10. Wide arrange of activities at an excellent pace. There was just enough time for each activity where we didn’t feel rushed and we also didn’t have too much lounging around/wasted time. Gina was very informative and helpful! I otherwise wouldn’t write about this, but the pork belly that came with the lunch was completely unacceptable. Maybe it was a bad batch, but the skin was inedible (too tough, to the point I almost chipped/cracked a tooth on it). The rest of the pork was also dry, like jerky. This shouldn’t take away from the overall tour but should be pointed out nevertheless.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your honest and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your wife had an awesome tour — 10/10 — and that you enjoyed the wide range of activities at an excellent pace, with just enough time at each stop. Gina will be so happy to know she was informative and helpful. We truly appreciate your feedback about the pork belly during lunch. That is certainly not the quality we expect, and we will address this with our food provider immediately to ensure it doesn't happen again. Thank you for pointing it out — it helps us improve. At ViajaMedellín, we're so glad the overall experience was excellent, and we hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable adventures.
