You have to. Super recommended. - Amazing experience. I traveled alone and was fortunate to have Esneider as a guide and to have a small group, however, I was able to share not only with my group but with people from other agencies as they all lend each other a lot of help, mutual support and hya a lot of companionship. That combination allowed me to talk a lot with Esneier who is has a lot of knowledge and passion in his work and professionalism. He explained everything about the area and cultures, that is, I could have personalized attention, spaces alone, spaces with other tourists and something very good is that my colleagues were adults around 55-60 years and Esneider accompanied them could always go to their own pace. This motivates me to take my parents soon, as although the hike is demanding there are frequent breaks and the guides have a lot of responsibility to the tourists. It's hard in stretches but it's possible and challenges you physically and mentally. Along the way there are often stations with free fruit and sale of drinks or package food. The logistics and organization of the tour is excellent, the food delicious, Yuly the cook was very friendly and attentive always. The camps are clean, organized, have cameras, showers, awnings, and are improving infrastructure to improve the experience. Super recommended. 500/10

So very good. The tour of La Ciudad Perdida was just icing on the cake. The adventure on the way there was outstanding. - Spectacular! Our guides were very knowledgeable (Esneider, Duvan, and Franc) about the area and the indigenous people. The food was amazing. The trip exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds. Would go again in a heartbeat.

Treking Lost City - The saw equipment seemed to us to be far superior to the other groups we crossed. Our guide, Esneider, is a good publicizer about the history, way of life and economy of the place. Norbey, is very nice, always adapts to the physical level of treking, and the food of pocholo is rich and abundant. In short, I think it is a very good company, committed to the regulation of local tourism and the development of the Tayrona areas, both with the peasants and with the indigenous people.

An unforgettable adventure with Ecossierra Tour 🌿 - We had a great 4 day experience at Ciudad Perdida with Ecossierra Tour. The organization was generally very good: excellent meals, well thought out steps, fruit at each break, and well organized nights in camp. Many thanks to Émilie, our French translator, whose kindness and quality translations really gave meaning to the whole experience 🙏 Small downside to note: the initial transfer from Minca to the agency, in an overloaded minibus with many stops, took more than 3 hours. It’s a shame for a trek of this level and price, but easily upgraded.
