Get ready for the most comprehensive day trip from Medellín. From the moment we pick you up from your hotel, your bilingual guide will ensure that you don't miss a single story, fact, or hidden gem along the way.
Your day begins with a traditional Antioquian breakfast, the perfect fuel before an action-packed day.
We'll then head to the Piedra del Peñol, one of Colombia's most iconic natural landmarks. Standing at the foot of this huge 220-meter-high rock is already impressive. The climb of 740 steps is optional and comes at an additional cost, but those who make it to the top will be rewarded with one of the most spectacular panoramic views in all of Colombia.
Next, we'll explore the colorful streets of Guatapé: its famous plinths, its vibrant murals, and its charming waterfront. One of the most photogenic villages in the country.
Next, we'll visit the replica of Old Peñol, a reconstruction of the original town that was submerged when the Guatapé Reservoir was built. A fascinating and moving stop steeped in history.
Then, we'll board a boat for a scenic cruise tour on the reservoir, passing by celebrity mansions and the legendary La Manuela, Pablo Escobar's former estate, while your guide shares the stories behind each landmark.
Next, we'll enjoy a full traditional lunch at a local restaurant, with multiple menu options to choose from.
We'll end the day at Alto del Chocho, a hilltop farm where you'll meet llamas, fish, goats, and other animals while enjoying spectacular panoramic views. The perfect end to an unforgettable day.
