Awesome experience
Amazing experience visiting . The tour was powerful, educational, and full of culture, music, and history. Roiman was warm, knowledgeable, and made the experience feel personal—not just like a tour, but a true connection to the community. I left with a deeper appreciation for Palenque’s rich heritage and resilience. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Cartagena.

Great! Recommend reading reviews and setting expectations prior.
Great experience, Matteo the guide was really great.
The lagoon hike was lovely we had a lovely older gentleman who needed to go a little slower due to his knees and the altitude but he still managed it no problem. The views at the top were magnificent.
The salt mines were also cool to look at.
The driver was great, he noticed I was cold on the way home so gave me a blanket for the ride home.
It was a super long day there was floods and unavoidable road closures, we were expecting a 12+ hour day due to the reviews and was expecting the lunch restaurant to be expensive from reviews also and all these things were true.
Nevertheless it was a worthwhile tour and would recommend to anyone.

The lagoon walk can be...
The lagoon walk can be quite challenging if you are not acclimated to the high altitude - it is NOT slow paced for persons in their mid to late 60s and includes many higher than "normal" steps. Getting to the top await some beautiful views.
The light show at the salt cathedral is a bit underwhelming; the Cathedral itself is amazing to see / experience.

Best experience ever in Medellin
This is my second trip to Medellin and I visited many places. By far this is the best I done. Joanna, Alejandro and the rest of the crew were amazing. The hike was beautiful from the beginning to the end. Good facts are the time, the length of the activity and the driving distance from the meeting point to the hiking point.
Got to say you have to be in a very good physical condition to enjoy it.
150 stars !!!

Esteban and Alfonso were...
Esteban and Alfonso were excellent guides for this tour. They were very knowledgeable and ensured that everything was well-executed. The visits to Guatavita and Guatavita Lagoon were beautiful, providing great cultural context for the region. We had visited the Museo del Oro the day prior, so everything tied in well. Lunch in Zipaquirá was at a nice restaurant and consisted of a tasty traditional Colombian plate. The subsequent visit to Catedral de Sal was incredible. We had plenty of time to explore the beautiful chambers and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

5 star
We learnt so much about the history of Pablo Escobar and the city of Medellín. Mateo was a fantastic guide, lots of knowledge and insight, very friendly and answered all of our questions.
Very interesting to see the perspective from the Medellín people. Definitely recommend this tour!!

Great day trip from...
Great day trip from Medellin to visit the charming colorful town of Guatape and climbing La Piedra. There were bus loads of tourists but we are so glad we did a private tour. Our guide Sergio Buitrago was amazing! Very professional and so knowledgeable about the history of Colombia and Medellin and Guatape and connecting to other countries. He kept the long drive very interesting by sharing his knowledge with us. The best guide we have ever had!!
Breakfast and lunch were included with the tour and both were very good. Afternoon boat ride after lunch was relaxing.
Overall, a great day and 5 stars to our guide Sergio Buitrago!!

Eco Tour
Miguel was a great tour guide! They are very considerate and helpful. It is very fun, be ready for a bit of rough boat ride due to winds but it honestly is not bad and completely worth it. If you sit up front you feel more bumps, if you're in the back you feel more of the splashes. The spacing of stops was perfect and we loved talking with Miguel between each stop. We didn't experience any overbearing vendors, they may ask you once but its not nearly as bad as others made it seem in reviews. Everyone is very kind and helpful, if you do decide to get a drink from the vendors they will treat you as a long time friend.

Salt cathedral tour -private
Our tour guide was Jhovanny Olaya. Our tour was in English. He was on time. Very informative and explained everything well. He helped us navigate the salt cathedral with ease despite the large crowds. Our lunch was amazing as well. Overall a fantastic experience. Would highly recommend -especially Jhovanny

Experiencing Palengue
It was authentic and not overly touristy. The aim was to clearly share the Palenque culture in all its reality. The murals were beautiful.
The guide was informative, the entire community including the children and young adults were involved. While donations were welcome there was no pressure.
The lunch was delicious and was a fitting end to a very informative and interesting tour.

Amazing Experience – Highly Recommended
I recently took the Zipaquirá Salt Cathedral tour, and it was truly unforgettable. The pickup was perfectly on time, the transportation was comfortable, and everything was very well organized from start to finish.
Our guide, Jhon, made the entire experience even better. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. Jhon explained the history and cultural background of every part of the cathedral in a clear and engaging way, and he always made sure the group felt comfortable and taken care of.
The Salt Cathedral itself is breathtaking, but having someone like Jhon to guide you through it really brings the whole place to life. I felt like I learned so much and enjoyed every moment.
I 100% recommend this tour, and if you can, definitely ask for Jhon as your guide. An absolute must-do while visiting Bogotá!

You won’t be disappointed if you love coffee, chocolate & wildlife
Be prepared for slippery trails and river crossing. The enthusiasm that our guide had was truly contagious. He loved what he does and has stories for days. Coffee in the morning, from the small farm, lunch at Jungle Joe’s & chocolate making was brilliant! One of the best trips I’ve been on & so happy I had made last minute plans to book
