Family walk to the Melcoho River - It was a completely spectacular walk, it was too complete and Daniel an excellent guide. At first the journey seems a little long but when you arrive and meet that beautiful, wonderful, crystal clear and delicious river you feel it was worth it. Daniel is watching every detail and that we are always sure. I highly recommend it.

Authentic Colombian Adventure with impecable and personalized service - This tour was all we had hoped for and more. Daniel picked us up early in the morning from our hotel in Medellin from where we drove an hour or so to Cocorna. Daniel is such a friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgable guide. He told us all about Colombian culture and living on our way there and just before arrriving we stopped at an awesome waterfall viewpoint. We were welcomed at his home with an amazing breakfast and got to try delicious fruits from their garden. On our way to the national park we got to see authentic Colombian villages, wildlife (monkeys, snakes, toucans) and waterfalls. Swimming in the rio melchocho was so refreshing and relaxing, and the lunch was excellent. On our way back we drove through the beautifull mountains of Cocorna during golden hour and enjoyed some great music together. It was an unforgetable experience. Gracias Daniel!
