Irene_C, Apr 2026

Definitely Worth It

This tour is not for the weak! Even if you don’t climb the stairs to the top of the rock, it’s a full day tour and tiring. The lunch was good. Wear comfortable sneakers. Don’t even try to climb the rock if you’re out of shape. Get back to your bus on time and pay attention to the tour guides.

Horseback Riding in Medellin Private Tour: Great Views & Horses

Lewis_C, Mar 2026

So much fun!

We had a wonderful horseback riding experience that we truly enjoyed. Our guide, Sara, was exceptional from the very beginning and added so much to the overall experience. The horses, Troya and Paloma, were calm, well cared for, and a pleasure to ride. It was a long and rewarding ride, with a stop along the way to enjoy a spectacular view. Although it rained on and off, we were provided with waterproof covers, and it was never uncomfortable. In fact, the cooler weather and lack of strong sun made the ride even more enjoyable. During the ride up, Sara gave us a great overview of Medellín, sharing interesting insights about the city and the surrounding region. Beyond being very professional, she is a warm and genuine person with a truly lovely spirit, which made the experience feel personal and special. I would also like to highlight Andrés from Medellín Day Trips, who was excellent to work with. He checked in with us both before and after the activity to ensure everything met our expectations, demonstrating a high level of care and professionalism. This activity was the perfect way to start our first day in Medellín. It allowed us to get some exercise, connect with nature, and enjoy local horses in a beautiful setting. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city.

Paragliding Adventure with Transportation and Gopro Videos HD

Wilson_L, Jan 2026

WOW! Thanks for the views!

I highly recommend this tour! The main reason I chose this was because of the hostel pickup that it provided instead of you having to uber yourself to the pickup spot like most other paragliding options. I am glad I chose this because not only of the free pickup but the go pro videos and pictures! The instructor provides all of them via USB to your phone at the end of the day free of charge! If you want a memorable Medellin experience 10,000 feet in the air, look no further than this!
