Colombia is amazing - I had a blast! Paragliding was amazing I had a fantastic guide and we changed itinerary due to anticipated crowds and went hiking through the jungle to a waterfall and ate fruit we bought in an amazing market As far as I’m concerned, Colombia should be the premier destination for ecotourism. It’s the second most biodiverse country in the world, warm friendly people and .. bonus.. you can pick your climate! I highly recommend Ecoadventure

#1 Tour in Medellin - Paragliding + Guatape + Piedra Penol - I picked the right tour with Ecoventure. I was only in Medellin for a couple of days and wanted to pack in a lot of activities. They have so many options. They met all my needs with the Paragliding + Piedra Peñol + Guatape! Julian was the best tour guide so professional and a really great guy. He made sure to take to all the great viewpoints so we could capture great moments and memories throughout the day. 10 out 10 recommend.

Best tour guide ever! - “Our tour of El Peñol, Guatapé, and paragliding was absolutely incredible! Our guide Fabian was the best – super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience fun and memorable. We felt completely safe during the paragliding, which made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience the magic of Guatapé with a guide who truly cares!”

Why Fabian made our trip unforgettable - Unforgettable Experience with the Best Tour Guide – Fabian! We booked Fabian through Ecoventure on GetYourGuide, and from the moment he reached out to us before the tour even began, we knew we were in good hands. He told us his goal was to be our best friend for the day—and he truly lived up to that and so much more. Fabian is far more than just a tour guide. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about Colombia—its history, culture, people, and even the lesser-known facts about the places we passed on the road. The ride from one destination to another was never boring because he constantly shared interesting information and stories along the way. But that’s just the beginning. Fabian is also a talented magician, and he showed us some of his magic tricks during the ride, which added a fun, lighthearted touch to the whole experience. On top of that, he’s a rapper, and learning about his artistic side just made us appreciate him even more. He’s full of surprises and energy—and makes you feel like you’re hanging out with an old friend rather than just taking a tour. Our first activity with Fabian was paragliding, and thanks to his strong relationships with the locals there, everything went incredibly smoothly. He made sure we got exactly what we wanted—my wife requested a gentle flight, while I asked for something more adrenaline-filled. The pilots customized the experience perfectly, and I even got to soar into the clouds—an unforgettable thrill. We were so impressed with Fabian that we canceled another tour we had booked with a different company the next day (knowing we wouldn’t get a refund)—just so we could spend another day with him. That’s how good he is. We booked again with Ecoventure through GetYourGuide, and it was one of the best decisions we made during our entire trip. Day two was ambitious: we visited Comuna 13 and went white water rafting—a packed itinerary, but Fabian made sure we could do both without ever feeling rushed. In Comuna 13, he didn’t just show us the typical tourist spots—he brought us into the hidden “eskinitas” (little corners) where you truly see how the locals live. That’s exactly the kind of travel experience we look for: authentic, raw, and real. And everywhere we went, people knew Fabian. In Comuna 13, the parking attendant asked him to call his mom because it was her birthday (May 25). We even got to say happy birthday to her over the phone—a sweet and totally unexpected moment. On the drive to the rafting site, Fabian asked if he could video call his daughter. He hadn’t seen her that day and said he never lets a day go by without saying good morning and good night to her (whenever he’s working). That moment really touched us—it showed the kind of man he is: warm, caring, and family-first. We even got to meet his daughter briefly through the call, which we truly appreciated. During the pandemic, Fabian started his own lingerie business to support his daughter—a true testament to his dedication and entrepreneurial spirit. The fact that he’s not only a guide, but also a magician, rapper, and small business owner, all while being an amazing father, just blew us away. At one point on the highway, he pulled over to let us try a local favorite—strawberries and cream from a roadside stand (the famous red tents). He insisted on treating us, and it was such a thoughtful surprise that made the day even more special. When we arrived for rafting, he helped us order food (he's fluent in English and Spanish), and then—he paddled with us for three hours! Having him on the raft with us elevated the experience. His energy and enthusiasm matched ours, and we felt like we were sharing an adventure with a close friend. Fabian is incomparable to other tour guides—it’s like comparing apples to oranges. No one else brings the same heart, energy, knowledge, and personal touch to the experience. With Fabian, it’s not just a tour; it’s a meaningful, one-of-a-kind journey. Everything about our time with Fabian felt personal, real, and from the heart. He took care of us every step of the way, and his passion for his country, his community, and his guests is something you don’t find often. If you’re visiting Colombia and want a truly authentic, unforgettable experience, book Fabian through Ecoventure on GetYourGuide. He’s not just a tour guide—he’s a storyteller, an entertainer, a father, a friend, and someone who will make your journey through Colombia more meaningful than you ever expected. We left with memories we’ll carry for life—and a friend we hope to see again. We hope to see you one day on a Las Vegas stage doing your magic show.
¡Nos vemos pronto aquí en Las Vegas, mi amigo!

Picturesque paraglide and more! - I experienced one of the most amazing and scenic paraglides in my life! The pilot took me up and down the mountain range and also made a few passes of the incredible waterfalls. Fabian “the magician “ was also my driver and tour guide and bonus for giving me an inside look of all the scenery and cute towns we passed along the way. 5 Stars! I highly recommend this adventure!
