Overview

WELCOME to Colombia's most charming and colorful tour: the GUATAPÉ TOUR! Unlike large tours with 1 guide for 40 people, you will travel in a shared bus, but each guide accompanies a MAXIMUM GROUP of 18 people to ensure a more intimate experience at an affordable price.

We start with a DELICIOUS BREAKFAST. Then, we will visit the TOWN OF PEÑOL and its FAMOUS REPLICA.

The best is yet to come! The PIEDRA DEL PEÑOL challenges you with its 700 steps. Are you up for climbing and enjoying a 360º view? You can do it!

After a TRADITIONAL LUNCH, we will take a relaxing LUXURY BOAT RIDE to admire the incredible landscapes and properties.

Later, we will visit the town of Guatapé with our guide: CALLE DE LAS SOMBRILLAS, PLAZA DE LOS ZÓCALOS, CALLE DEL RECUERDO, and PARQUE CENTRAL, and you will have time to explore at your own pace.

Finally, we will interact with adorable animals such as LLAMAS.

Discover the magic of Guatapé on a tour you will always remember!

Next, we will pass through the town of the New Peñol, whose urban center was built as a result of the relocation of the inhabitants of the Old Peñol when the construction of the Guatapé dam became effective.
