A Must-Do Tour in Colombia for Families and others

I purchase a tour package from this company in July 9, 2026. This was my first time taking a tour with then, and I have to say the experience was outstanding from beginning to end. This was a wonderful family experience. On this trip to Colombia, I brought my mother-in-law and my niece so they could discover the country with me and my wife, and they were absolutely delighted with the tour. It created memories that we will cherish for years to come. Our guide, Juan Carlos, was exceptional. I would highly recommend this tour with him to anyone. He is truly professional, completely customer-focused, and very transparent about every aspect of the service provided. As for Víctor, our driver, he was excellent. He drove very carefully and responsibly throughout the entire trip. At no point did I feel there was any unsafe or careless driving. On the contrary, he added tremendous value to the experience by ensuring that those who were unable to do the walk around the lake could still learn about the history of the area and fully enjoy the tour. I strongly recommend this tour package to anyone visiting Colombia. It offers an excellent balance of sightseeing, history, comfort, and outstanding customer service. I am truly grateful to this team for making our family tour an unforgettable experience. Thank you for exceeding our expectations.

Top 3 Islands Tour Bora Bora, Pao Pao and Islabela With Lunch

Patterson_P, Jul 2026

Beautiful islands. Delicious Lunch. Strong drinks

Viator said the muelle fee was 34,500 COP and some dude with a fanny pack and a 3 Islas Polo charged us 41,500. Said something about taxes. The ride was short and sweet to all 3 Islands. The water was as beautiful as the pictures. The ride back on the boat was rough. DON'T SIT IN THE FRONT, LOL! The fresh fried fish was soo good. Coconut rice.....o.....m.....g!

It rained like the world was ending at the beginning of our tour and all day long. Leis and Miguel were amazing and we partied in the rain anyways. They explained everything really well and they are both so much fun and engaging! Really glad we went anyways even w/ the weather.

hiking medellin and hidden waterfalls

johnquertermous, May 2026

Excellent nature experience just outside Medellin

This is a great way to get outside the city of Medellin and enjoy the beautiful surrounding nature. They pick you up in El Poblado and the drive to the start is about 30 mins with great views along the way. We were driven in a car but others were taken in a bus. Our group was about 20 people. The walk to the waterfall is about and hour each way and it does include some steep/rocky and sometimes slippery terrain. It’s pretty wet and sometimes muddy but you can (and should) rent boots at the start. Also recommend ordering lunch which will be waiting for you when you get back.

Unforgettable Experience in Guatapé with the Best Guide, Nelson Ortiz!

Our experience in Guatapé would not have been the same without our guide, Nelson Ortiz. He is, without a doubt, one of the best guides we’ve ever had. Extremely kind, professional, and knowledgeable, he made every moment both enjoyable and meaningful. Nelson has an impressive command of multiple languages, which made communication seamless and added even more value to the experience. His deep knowledge of the area, combined with his thoughtful recommendations, allowed us to truly appreciate Guatapé beyond the typical tourist perspective. What made the experience even more special were the incredible photos he took for us—beautiful memories that we will cherish forever. He has a great eye for capturing the perfect moments. We feel truly grateful and fortunate to have had Nelson as our guide. Thank you, Nelson Ortiz, for your kindness, your expertise, and for making this trip unforgettable.

Colombia’s Tallest Waterfalls: La Chorrera Hike

genvieveuga, Apr 2026

Must see in Columbia

Wow what a wonderful informative and fun adventure day! Our tour guide Nick was so friendly and explained the culture and highlights of the country very well. He was funny and insightful, giving us plenty of time for questions and soaking in the experience. It was just my husband and I and one other couple so the day was personalized and well timed. We took several breaks on the hike and there was a plentiful amount of food and drinks available on the trail. Highly recommend! Amazing waterfalls!

Zipaquira Salt Cathedral and Guatavita Lagoon from Bogota (Private Tour)

Ryan_Y, Mar 2026

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.

He made the 12hr trip seem SHORT! the locations were also phenomenal and our guides were insanely knowledgeable about every detail! I cannot recommend this enough!!

Full-Day Hiking Tour in Minca with coffee & Cocoa Workshop

Vanessa_U, Jan 2026

My experience

The experience was good but be prepared that even if you are not getting into the waterfall you will need to wear water shoes. Depending on your guide you will need to walk through water at different times in the day. People had to constantly take off their socks and shoes and put them back on. I think our guide took us a different path and we walked a lot through the jungle so be prepared for a bit of walking. Also bring snacks we did not eat lunch until 3pm and we were all starving. Also the cacao experience you don’t really make your own chocolate bar so don’t think you will be getting a full chocolate bar it is more of a small ball. Overall it was a good experience. I would recommend.
