Description
Meet at the lobby of your hotel in the El Pablo, Laureles, or Estadio neighborhoods (See note*1). From the moment we depart Medellín, you'll be immersed in spectacular landscapes of vibrant colors and a rich cultural heritage. En route, we'll visit the Republica del Alto del Chocho farm for a short break where you can purchase local food products such as arepas, cheese, and traditional drinks like aguapanela. After a drive of approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, we'll pass through the new town of Peñol, a fundamental starting point for learning about the past, present, and future of this beautiful area. We'll enjoy a boat ride along the waters of the Peñol-Guatapé reservoir to appreciate the mountains and luxurious homes that surround it. Later, we'll visit the majestic Piedra del Peñol, from the top of which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the reservoir. Here, we offer enough time for you to climb to the top of Piedra del Peñol (Peñol Rock) on a climb of more than 600 steps (ticket not included). We will NEXT visit the town of Guatapé, famous for its Zócalos (painted on the walls of its houses). Here, we will take a walking tour of its main squares and have free time for shopping in the souvenir shops. A traditional lunch is included. In the afternoon, we will return to Medellín and arrive at your hotel in the El Poblado, Laureles, or Estadio areas (See Note*1).

Vale la pena
La pasamos bien, lo recomiendo con un par de salvedades. Pasar por Recorrido valió el tour entero. Me quedé con las ganas de más tiempo en Recorrido. Si lo comparás con hacerlo por tu cuenta, conviene. Se respetó al minuto el horario de regreso. Muy bueno que incluyera traslado desde los hoteles. (Ver nota). Faltaba un mapa impreso, todo dependía del celular.

Would repeat in a heartbeat
Worth far more than what it costs. The route is well thought out, no backtracking or wasted time. It costs more than going alone, but it saves you all the planning. The guided walking tour of the town of Guatapé is worth it on its own. I have already recommended it to two friends travelling next month.

Could not have gone better. The hotel drop-off ( See note) is worth it on its own. We loved the Stone area. We finished with a clear picture of how the city fits together. Easily one of the best things we did.

Muy contentos con la elección. Lo de traslado desde los hoteles. (Ver nota) es un acierto. Nos acompañó un guía muy cálido, que se tomó el tiempo de charlar con cada uno. Comparé precios antes de reservar y esta era la opción más conveniente.

Repetiría sin dudar
Cumplió con todo lo que prometía y un poco más. De todo el recorrido, Recorrido es lo que más recuerdo. Se notaba que el guía es de la zona, contaba cosas de primera mano. Gracias por el día que nos hicieron pasar.
