Gorgeous views and lively horseback ride!
This was a great experience to do if you want a relaxing day outside of the city while visiting Medellin. The farm itself was very beautiful, and Juan showed us around and even took us in the recently completed cabin they have for overnight guests! Doing a relaxing long weekend at this farm would be pretty great I think.
The tour experience itself included a lot of interaction with the farm animals. For the chickens it was gathering eggs, feeding the chickens, and meeting the baby chicks. I grew up with chickens and I talked to Juan about how they have one of the breeds I had growing up. The cow experience included meeting the cows (they had loaner rubber boots for this!), milking the cows by hand if you want to try this, and bottle feeding the babies. If you want to, you can even try the raw milk fresh from the cow. I grew up in a farming area so I have met many cows and chickens- I do think this would be an excellent experience with kids!
The horseback ride was very fun, I was happy to see that the horses were well cared for and had some personality. Be honest about your experience level- I know how to ride and they gave me a horse who was a little more spirited, which I thought was fun! They gave the calmest horse to a man who had not ridden before. On the ride, we saw scenic views of Medellin and of the Finca itself. We then had a unique stop to rest in hammocks, give treats to our horses, and have some bonding time with them. On my tour, there was even a proposal during this time! Very romantic!
I absolutely recommend the tour, or contacting Juan to book for an overnight stay if you want a beautiful place to stay a few days outside the city.

The tour operators were...
The tour operators were absolutely wonderful. Even though we got caught in an unexpected torrential downpour, they did everything they could to make sure we still had an amazing experience. They checked in with the group to see what everyone wanted to do, continued with every activity that was safely possible, and took us through the wildlife sanctuary. Despite the weather, it was a fantastic adventure, and the guides truly made the experience unforgettable.

Horseback Riding in Cartagena 💕
Our tour with the Cartagena Caribbean Tours was amazing! Jose was absolutely wonderful!! He made sure we had a great time and were well taken care of. Our uber broke down on the beach and he brought the horses to us so we wouldn’t have to walk. He also made sure our ride share picked us up from the meeting up point once the tour was over. He was very knowledgeable and passionate and gave great recommendations for our trip!! Definitely recommend this to anyone visiting, 10/10 experience!

Amazing experience! Book this activity!
I absolutely loved this experience! The manager of the tour, Alfonso, contacted me a one day prior to the tour to confirm the details. The driver picked us us and we drove about 30 minutes to the property. The area is gated and very secure. The horses were well strained and gentle. My nine-year old son was able to ride by himself with the trainer, Luis, guiding the horse. The beach is lined with private houses and a golf resort. The water is calm and beautiful. Very relaxing. We did have one issue. The description of this activity says it includes drinks and water. We were not offered any beverages and when we asked about the drinks were told we would stop at a store on the way back to our accommodations by the guide on the property. However, when we asked the driver about the drinks he said he didn’t know anything about it. Overall, I enjoyed this experience very much. The trainer was kind and professional, the horses were lovely, and the scenery was incredible. I just ended the activity thirsty and a bit disappointed about the drinks.
Tip: bring your own drinks and wet wipes to clean your hands

Best trail experience we could have ever wished for
As experienced horse people, we typically go into trail ride experiences with the expectation that it will be a leisurely walk only ride, as most folks on these rides typically have never ridden before. This is fine by us, we are just trying to get our horse time in on vacay and enjoy the scenery along the way. Hence, also low expectations in regards to the “quality” of the horses. Well, this was a trail ride experience like no other. My daughter and I’s mounts were amazingly responsive to us, and not your mindless trot along in single file ponies that will only go in one direction “follow the leader” style. We had the time of our lives, moving along at a steady Paso and at times we got to let them stretch and just fly at a full gallop. Yet, others horses, with less experience, stayed behind and kept their steady beginner friendly pace. Our guides were amazing! They truly care about the animals wellbeing, and that everyone had a good experience. They had great tips, even for us experienced riders, on how to get a better connection with our trail partners. The ride itself takes you through beautiful Colombian mountains, tiny little villages, and even right through town. Doberman, Susana, and her buddy the Rottweiler came along for the ride and were a joy to have join us. I also want to mention that these horses are the most bombproof horses I have ever encountered. Nothing, absolutely NOTHING, fazes them. Motorcycles squeezing by, ridiculously loud music, semi trucks, random dog fights? They took it all in stride. Something to note: helmets are not a thing here. And be smart, wear long pants or you’ll be sorry the next day.

Three amazing hours in the mountains
I booked the tour with Andes Eco Tours (via Viatour), and everything was well organized from the beginning. I was picked up directly from my hotel in Bogotá and driven to La Calera, which made the whole experience very easy and comfortable.
When I arrived, the horses were already prepared and ready. We started the ride right away, and the tour lasted about 3 hours with breathtaking viewpoints almost the entire way. There were plenty of opportunities for nice galloping, which made the ride especially fun and exciting.
My guide Diego was very friendly and informative, sharing a lot about the area, nature, and local plants throughout the ride, which made the experience even more interesting.
I felt safe and comfortable during the trip, and the scenery was absolutely stunning. It was a fantastic way to experience the mountains just outside the city.
A big thank you to Diego and the owner Andes for a great experience - highly recommended for anyone visiting Bogotá and wanting a memorable horseback adventure!

Don’t miss this
You can’t miss this once in a lifetime experience if you travel to Medellin, straight up. I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying several horse tours before, but nothing compared to this. The horses ran free in the rolling hills, truly galloping and making my colleagues and I feel like real life cowboys, ha!
Memories for life.
And what made the day extra special was our guide, Sara. Efficient and clear communication in advance, endless knowledge about Medellín, and honestly a vibe. Pick up from the front door of our hotel, perfect English, friendly, funny.
Money well spent.

A beautiful experience
This was such a beautiful experience. The horses and trail were beautiful. You pass through farms and there are two vista points the guide takes you to that were beautiful. Our guide was informative and friendly. You are surrounded by beautiful nature the entire time you are on the horses. It was a very special experience.
