After enjoying the impressive views from the peak of the rock, we will continue on to the next relaxing stop.

After our trip down to the beautiful GUATAPÉ DAM, we will board a LUXURY BOAT, to explore the beautiful waters. During this relaxing segment of the tour we will be able to admire the impressive views, surrounded by green hills and picturesque mountains.

Then we will return to Guatape where a delicious lunch awaits us, where we have many options for you, if you are vegetarian or vegan, don't worry, it is also in the option.

We will then continue our experience, where we will learn all the history of the most colorful and beautiful town in Colombia. Our guides will take you through the most colorful streets, accompanied by engaging stories. After, we will grant you FREE TIME, so that you can explore the majestic streets and capture photos that will make part of your memories of Guatapé-Colombia.

Everything was great. Only the weather changed and dampened our enjoyment but that was out of their control. So definitely would highly recommend this trip!
