Our family was staying in Taganga for the week and we found this tour company so we inquired about the different tours they offered and decided to do the Minca Downhill Adventure. What an adventure it was! The awesome guides Tom and his local assistant, Oscar were very helpful and cheery as well as knowledgable. When we got to the... More

Led by the ultra enthusiastic and knowledgable Ed, we were guided up the spectacular Sierra Nevada mountain range during a recent stay in the gorgeous mountain town of Minca in Colombia. We stayed over night in an ex-paramilitary base 1,600 metres up in Los Pinos, for what was to be the highlight of my Minca experience; adrenaline mountain biking dow... More

The Bike-Tour to the Playa Concha organised by Elemento was wonderful. Our guide Reto Mueller was very friendly and all well organised. Two Days of Beach with Snorkeling, cooking fresh Fish were just Fun! Thank you Reto :) More

We booked the Tayrona 2 day beach ride with Elemento and it was the most relaxing 2 days of our time in Colombia. Really professional and friendly guide, Reto, led the way through the countryside then on through tropical jungle, pointing out wildlife on the way. After about an hour we reached the most amazing beach which was almost deserted.... More

I did the Los Pinos day trip where they drive you up to 1600m and you mountain bike the whole way down. The ride was awesome fun and perfect for anyone looking for some real action. Daniel our guide was great and incredible helpful as I got two punctures in quick succession. More

We did the Minca mountain bike tour. The trip to the coffee platation was fascinating. Our guide Daniel was very good, allowed flexibility on our day and for us to make the trip at our own pace. Daniel spoke excellent English, and his translating at the coffee plantation was great Daniel demonstrated an enjoyment in his job, as well as... More

Hello and thank you so much for your lovely review! Even our craziest guides love the gentle riding and smooth flow of the Minca Downhill. The fascinating history of the coffee finca, which is basically a working museum from the 1800's combined with the stunning views you can experience coming down the trails really means you get to see the...

This is seriously not a tour to be missed in Colombia - if you love adventure in a beautiful setting then the Minca Above and Beyond tour with Elemento is 2 days you (and your legs) won't forget! Mountain biking and a trek in the awesome mountains of the Sierra Nevada, you have visibility of 2 snow-capped peaks over 5700m... More

What a better way to see Taganga and Parque Tayrona than to travel with Elemento. I loved the guys at Elemento. I did a three day adventure tour that included hiking, biking, white water tubing, camping, and more. It was my best three days while I was in Colombia. I highly recommend booking at least a 1 day tour with... More

Hey thats awesome dude! It was a pleasure to have you with us. Thanks so much for the great review. We have a bunch of guys leaving on the three day tour tomorrow so they are really stoked for that.
