Beautiful scenes at every turn - Great time and very scenic. The quaint town of Guatape was a joy to walk. At every corner there was something to photograph.

Worth it! - This tour was incredible! Carlos was our guide, and he was wonderful. He picked us up on time at our hotel, and took us out to El Penol, telling us about the area and answering all of our questions. El Penol itself is an intense climb, but the views are so worth it! And then we were able to go into the town of Guatape, wander around, and had a great lunch at a restaurant recommended by Carlos. And, after seeing the multiple group tours all being herded around, we were so glad to have booked a private tour-it’s definitely worth the cost! Overall it was a great day and one we will not forget!

Excellent tour and adventure through a picturesque town with very tasty food - Carlos did an excellent job of educating us and telling us which were the best places in the area. He made sure we visited all the sights and gave us space and time to explore on our own. Guatapé felt very safe and alive.

Amazing tour with John! - John was such an amazing tour guide! He was so knowledgeable, kind, and just overall amazing! He adjusted the tour to my needs, and I would have loved to do all of our tours in Columbia with him! John was such a great representative of all warm-hearted Columbians and this stunning country! Touring with him is your biggest luck!

Getting to know Medellín and its surroundings - I recently had the opportunity to book two tours with this company through this means. A trip to El Peñol and Guatapé and a CityTour in Medellín. The attention and guidance of the people who performed the two services: Gustavo, David & Julián was outstanding. We really had a wonderful time. A rating of 100/100. I hope to soon have the opportunity to travel to Medellín again and contract other additional services with Medellín Travels. Ah! Of course, of course, the kindness of your manager, Ms. Lina, in the process of contacting and closing the contracting of services also contributed a lot to this qualification.

Medellin, Guatape and Pablo in 2 days - I took 2 tours with Medellin travels. My first tour was Guatape with El Penol - a fun day - great views and an opportunity to experience a lively and colorful Colombian gem outside Medellin. There are many opportunities to take great photos, shop and eat delicious street foods and in cafes. My second tour was the Pablo Escobar tour which included La Catedral. An interesting tour that visits many sites around Medellin that are part of the Pablo Escobar story and legend. La Catedral is worth a visit for the views alone, but the 'prison' is part of the Pablo story you have to see to believe. Medellin Travels was easy to book with and communicate with. Everything was taken care of, including comfortable transportation, guide and and stops along the way for comfort, food and shopping.

Guatape private tour - Highly highly highly recommend the private Guatape tour. Our guide was John who was absolutely terrific. He was very knowledgeable and kind. He made the experience very personal and we felt very comfortable and safe the entire trip. One of the best days we’ve had in Antioquia.

Great experience, must do in Medellin - This was a great tour. We always had great communication before the actual tour. Our guide was Erickson. He gave us his number early in the tour so we could keep in touch. We visited El Peñol, which was great, then we went to the damn cruise. Lunch in the cruise was small, but tasty. We also visited Guatapé, which we loved! Just keep in mind we got back to the city almost at 10pm. Between people being late, traffic, it took more time than advertised. However, we loved it!
