What a great day trip from Medellin! The park itself is fairly standard fair for a zoo, but it also includes a very large water park and entertainment areas (rides, etc). But what made this a great trip was learning the history of the park, Pablo Escobar, the region, (and more!) from our guide, Daniel. In addition to being a wealth of knowledge, he was also extremely friendly and accommodating. For those worried about animals that are locked up - most of the animals there are rescues from previous zoos, circus', etc. Also, the size of the wild iguanas roaming about make me believe in dragons! lol ***Note, it is a bit warmer up there than in Medellin, so be prepared!

Great time. Great service. Nice way to get in touch with nature after a nasty hangover. I would recommend for other couples. Que sea caballero!

Daniel is incredibly knowledgeable and credible. He shared some very interesting facts with us and answered our questions really well also. He's very passionate about Medellín and enjoys his work. He was punctual picking us up and flexible when we needed a change of itinerary due to our baby. We were in very good hands, thank you, Daniel!

We had a great tour with Joe, our super-streetwise guide. Loads of intriguing factoids about Medellin’s often grim and violent past. Real under the bonnet stuff. Engaging and entertaining. Thanks mate!

Pretty impressive feat of engineering. I recommend you skip the main tour - most of it is just explaining the religious symbolism of the stations of the cross that are in the tunnels that lead to the actual cathedral. I would save your energy and just walk past them and go straight to the big cathedral and museum spaces at the end of the tour - the sculpture museum itself is the best thing in my opinion, it's kind of nestled in among a bunch of shops and isn't part of the main tour. There's usually a line for the video room that has more interesting history than the tour itself- the history of the engineering and mining, which is very interesting. Be aware that prices in the stores/cafes down below are CRAZY EXPENSIVE. they really should regulate this as it is an absolute rip off - at least a 500% mark-up on stuff you can get at the surface.

Albert was such fun! He was a wealth of knowledge and had great stories to share! We also enjoyed the music jam on the rides!

We were so fortunate to have Daniel. What a great story teller. He was absolutely fantastic and incredibly knowledgable. Probably because he used to work at the museum with Pablo's brother Roberto. Had a great time and it was much more than just Pablo Escobar, learnt so much about the country, politics and everything in between. Thanks Daniel!

Luis Alberto Gómez was my guide, he was very knowledgeable. He was bilingual and very easy to understand. We when to planned stops and a couple roadside stops on the way. The countryside was lovely. I highly recommend using this guide.

Had a blast touring the beautiful sights and city of Guatapé!! Alberto our tour guide was funny super helpful and very knowledgable with history and fun facts. Highly recommend!

We have traveled to so many countries and our family of 5 (3 grown kids) all agree that this is one of our favorite tours ever!!! Our guide David was just incredible. He was so enthusiastic all day long. Our tour was 12 hours from pick up to drop off and it just flew by. We had so many amazing stops. David is a fantastic storyteller and we loved learning all about Colombia and Pablo Escobar! The tour was just our family of 5 in a mini van, so we were able to alter as necessary. We cut out the cemetery as it saved us 2 hours that we could spend at some of the other stops that we cared about more. David was a fantastic driver. For our boat tour, we were in a private boat with just our group. This was fantastic as we saw boats filled with 50-100 people go by. Our boat driver would stop at strategic points and explain what we were looking at. Another thing about David is that he was a fantastic DJ as we drove from location to location. He had a great playlist and we enjoyed singing along to the songs. At one point he let me son DJ and he had fun picking the songs. It certainly made the driving part more fun. Bring along a raincoat and/or light jacket as the weather changes so frequently! The hike to the top of El Peñol is well worth it. The views from the top are fantastic!

Daniel was a fantastic so good and so knowledgable. Had a great time and it was much more than just Pablo Escobar, learnt so much about the country, politics and everything in between. Thanks Daniel!

Regent street/ Covent Garden / Carnaby Street - Lights are lovely. Huge volume of aggressive pushy people - don't bring children here!!!!

Thought i was going to see flower fields but learned about the special art of flower decorating that is unique to medellin. Driver was a little late and had to scramble at the last minute to find a home to visit but was good when all said and done

Daniel our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about the tour. We had a fantastic experience. Especially in Cumo-13 we couldn’t have seen this place without him.

Riding through Llano Grande with Joe was an experience to remember! He’s the kind of guide who makes you feel like an old friend right away. His laid-back but professional approach made the whole trip smooth and enjoyable. The trails were stunning, with wide-open fields and breathtaking mountain views. Joe kept us laughing with his stories and made sure we were comfortable and confident on the horses. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced rider, he knows how to make it fun for everyone. If you’re in Llano Grande, don’t miss this! Joe’s passion for what he does shines through, and it’s an adventure you won’t forget.
