What are people saying about Cocora Valley (Valle de Cocora)

JuanCarlos_C, Aug 2026

Very worth it

Excellent Tour guide Juan Camilo. On time and very knowledgeable in the tour details. Very exciting tour from the moment we were pick up in a top-down 1966 Jeep to riding horses down the river

Vandy_M, May 2026

We enjoyed the hike very...

We enjoyed the hike very much but could have been more informed about the difficulty and conditions of the trail. It was extremely muddy and very rocky at the end. Our guide didn’t offer us water until we asked for it. It was beautiful but much longer than we expected

Jeffrey's the best!

Definitely wear the proper footwear and be prepared for high elevation. Other than that listen to your guide if you have one and don't be a jerk to other hikers. If you have Jeffery Garcia you'll be fine. He was amazing! He made our experience in Cocora wonderful! Especially since everything else about our trip to has been very stressful due to the earthquake. He is very knowledgeable about the area and worked at our pace. Jeffery will go above and beyond for you and I can't recommend him enough. If you have the chance to choose a guide he's the best. We got to see so many amazing animals because of him.

Sidney_G, Jul 2026

So worth it!

Had an amazing time with Pedro! He was so fun and welcoming and adjusted to what we wanted to do. It is a long tour but with lots of variety and so many amazing sights and experiences. It was so beautiful seeing the Cocora Valley that my boyfriend decided to propose there and Pedro was so kind and patient with the impromptu event. We started this tour a bit late and I would recommend picking an earlier time for more ease but even though we got back to Salento city late Pedro still gave us the history and brought us to an amazing empanada place to round out the tour. Again it was so great even though one of our friends had a hiccup on the horse they did all they could to help him feel comfortable to continue. Highly recommend!

Great experience to learn about the local wildlife

I could not recommend this tour of Cocora Valley more highly, particularly if you are interested in birds and biodiversity. My guide, Robin, was extremely knowledgeable and spent a lot of time talking explaining the birds of the area. If you want to learn more about the local wildlife while taking in the breathtaking views of the Cocora Valley, this tour is for you.
