Our recent excursion to Guatape was a delightful blend of exploration and discovery. The day was filled with immersive experiences that showcased the best of Colombia's landscapes and culture. Our journey began with a visit to a local fruit market, where we sampled an array of tropical fruits. The vibrant colors and flavors provided a taste of Colombia's diverse agricultural heritage. Following the fruit market, we embarked on a fascinating coffee tour, learning about the intricacies of coffee production and savouring the rich flavours of freshly brewed Colombian coffee. The coffee plantation provided the perfect setting for a leisurely exploration of Colombia's coffee culture. Ascending Guatape Rock was a highlight of the day, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. The climb was invigorating, and reaching the summit was a rewarding experience that offered a newfound appreciation for Colombia's natural beauty. Exploring the charming streets of Guatape town was a delightful conclusion to our adventure. The colorful facades and bustling atmosphere reflected the vibrant spirit of Colombian life, making it a joy to wander and explore. Throughout the day, our guide, Laura, shared her knowledge and passion for Colombia, enriching our experience with her insights and anecdotes. Her warmth and enthusiasm made her a wonderful companion, adding to the enjoyment of our journey. In summary, the Guatape Rock & Coffee Tour provided a well-rounded exploration of Guatape's treasures, from its lush coffee plantations to its iconic rock formation and picturesque town. With memorable experiences and the guidance of a knowledgeable and friendly guide like Laura, it's an excursion that offers a true taste of Colombian hospitality and culture. Highly recommended for travelers seeking an authentic Colombian adventure!

Great day trip
Jessica_B, May 2024
We did a full day tour with Laura and had a great time! It was on a Sunday so we stopped in Guatapé first to miss some of the crowds and went to the coffee farm after. It was really nice to be more one on one with Laura. I can’t imagine riding in the tour bus to Guatapé on the small roads!
We were so, so happy we...
Amy_D, May 2024
We were so, so happy we chose to spend the day with Erika! Erika is a fantastic guide to Medellin. We had no idea that we’d have such a small group (it was just us!) so we got to make stops that interested us, choose where to eat, etc. We were only in Medellin for a short amount of time, but we got to see all of the highlights: a coffee farm, Guatapé, and hike the rock. A highlight was also stopping for local fruits, which was so unique. All the while, Erika kept us entertained and laughing! We cannot recommend Erika enough and highly recommend booking a tour with this group as they were so organized and thoughtful.
Amazing day
Israel_N, Apr 2024
The best day with the best guide! Wonderful experience made even better by lovely Sara!!! The coffee tour was so cool!
Perfecto
Karina_D, Apr 2024
I highly recommend this tour! Diana was amazing & knew her stuff. It was the most beautiful experience as our first time in Colombia. With so many tips & tricks. From the fruit tasting, coffee making, guatape it was all lovely
An Absolute Must!
Tatiana_A, Apr 2024
This tour was absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Colombia/Medellin. Erika was the best tour guide we could’ve possibly asked for. She was super attentive, filled with knowledge, and a bundle of joy. The stairs up to La Piedra was a killer workout, and super cool! The town of Guatape was super charming, and Erika was super popular around town and made our tour super fun! Finally, the coffee tour was the cherry on top. Erika and the coffee plantation owner made our experience super fun! I was shocked to find out how lengthy the process of making coffee was. It will definitely make me appreciate my coffee better. They even served us the best coffee ever at the very end of our tour. Erika took amazing pictures & videos of my husband and I. She was great at taking pictures. I highly recommend this tour to anyone. It’s a must!
Fantastic Tour!
Randy_C, Apr 2024
Our tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Colombia! Diana was a fantastic host, very friendly and knowledgeable. My kids loved the coffee plantation visit and we got some great coffee to bring home with us. We went on a very busy day to Guatapé but she knew when to arrive to avoid some of the crowds. Would absolutely recommend!
Well worth it.

Laura was an amazing guide. My kids adored her. The tour was more than we expected. Very informative and we covered a lot
Amazing day - don’t skip this
Jenna_J, Feb 2024
Highly, highly recommend this tour! Our guide, Daniel, was phenomenal. He was so friendly and easy to talk to. He gave us a good background at each of the stops but also gave us some free time to wander in the town which was so fun. At the end we mentioned how fun it would be to do a boat ride and he was able to get us on a boat tour last minute even though it went past the expected "tour duration." Overall we all loved this tour and it was our favorite of the trip.

A must do tour
neena_s, Feb 2024
Daniel is an excellent tour guide who made us have a wonderful day exploring Guatape town , fruits to taste, and explained in detail about both the coffee plantation and history behind Guatape. Would highly recommend this tour
Awesome Experience
Martha_R, Jan 2024
Ericka was an amazing guide. We learned a lot from her and enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Guatapé rock was breathtaking (in more ways than one), Guatapé town is cute. And the coffee tour was very fun. Great coffee
Day trip from Medellín
Joan_C, Dec 2023
Daniel was a wonderful guide for our day in Guatapé and Piedra el Penol. He was a great driver, introduced us to his favorite Colombian music, explained coffee growing and encouraged us to taste many local fruits. We felt safe with Daniel and had an awesome day.
Guatape and coffee
Gary_R, Dec 2023
EXCELLENT! Erika was a fantastic guide, informative, fun and we got the most awesome photos! The coffee tour was a surprise, we thought it would be boring but was so much fun! The town of Guatape was adorable and the shopping fab! Loved this tour and Erika made it memorable!
Amazing tour! Love alejandro
Joyaan_B, Dec 2023
This was an exceptional tour! Probably the best part of our 7 day trip to Colombia. Each stop was handled very well and our tour guide Alejandro was incredible! He was knowledgeable, but also very kind and friendly. He made our whole group feel at ease and gave us so much to enjoy through the day. The exotic fruit tasting was an unexpected delight of the day. We also really loved Sr Miller and his coffee plant. All in all an amazing tour.
Andrés Castiblanco is Awesome
Kyle_C, Nov 2023
Andrés Castiblanco was our tour guide, and let me tell you, he was fantastic! He was very intelligent, and polite. We left with a huge appreciation and respect of the people in the community, while learning about its history and the process of making coffee from a humble yet genuine local family. This tour literally took all day, so would recommend you do this only if you have the time. We ran into traffic issues due to unexpected construction — it was basically a standstill. But despite the inconvenience, Andrés improvised and took an alternative route along the countryside which actually turned out to be a much more interesting experience. It felt more unique, and scenic, giving us a more picturesque view of the Guatapé rock on the way there. We had great conversation and he’s really good at singing (loves classic rock music). Would 10/10 recommend this tour.
Amazing coffee tour with Erika
Katharine_S, Oct 2023
I have to give a huge thank you to Erika and Andres for accommodating me. I felt unwell the night before but they tailored the trip to make sure it would work for me. Erika gave me a private tour of the coffee farm and it was absolutely brilliant! I tried different styles of coffee, picked up some coffee beans and learnt all about the process. It was lovely being learning about a family run coffee farm and Erika was just fabulous giving the tour! Would defo recommend.
Fantastic tour with Erika
Ria_G, Jun 2023
Erika was a fantastic tour guide! This tour is well worth the money and we got a very in-depth experience of Piedra de Penol, the town of Guatape, and a coffee farm. We especially loved how caring Erika was, how every need was thought of in advance (sunscreen, hand sanitizer, which bathrooms to use), and her knowledge. I also loved how the coffee farm was family-owned, so we got a very up close, non-commercial experience. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Erika!
