Pereira: Atemberaubende Anden – Ruiz-Gipfel & Thermal-Oase

Locals refer to the Andes as the spinal column of the planet and I’ve been to Bolivia and Peru but nothing as high and majestic as the nevado del Ruiz! The driver was extremely dedicated picking all members up from before dawn. Breakfast was good. Be prepared for the altitude though, it does not agree with everyone but luckily we were fine. Lunch was very good and the termales de otoño were the best way possible to end the day. In summary this is one of the best experiences I’ve done in my life and I will probably never do higher than this 4060 metres!

The experience was really great! The tour guide Andres was very punctual, kind, informative and helpful. Thanks so much.

We had a great tour with a very nice English-speaking guide, who explained a lot to us. Also: Delicious food. Thank you!!

Excellent tour! They met our expectations and more, super punctual, friendly and a very professional experience. The staff were quick to respond to any questions we had prior to our visit. They picked/dropped us from at hotel. Guiller our driver was very good and punctual. The breakfast and lunch were amazing. While the weather was foggy and it rained at the volcano, it still was absolutely amazing. Make sure to take cold/rainy apparel. Ending the day at Termales del Otoño was amazing. Highly recommended!

If you love nature and the mountains, this is a must do adventure. Now I want to see more of the Andes Mountain range. Our English speaking guide Jennifer was awesome and our driver was a very good driver. Stunning views that pictures don’t do justice. Every single Columbian was incredibly kind, and tried their very best. We both loved the homemade breakfast and lunch ❤️

Long drive from Pereira, mounten region (paramot) around Snowy Ruiz was fascinating, During a stopp in a hot spring I could warm up.

We liked Los Nevados park very much. Amazinf views in 4 - 4,5 km elevation. The guide provided us with a lot of interesting facts about nature in high Andes. I do not why but there are almost no tourust in this place. For us this place together with Cocora valley are the most beutiful in Columbia. The only unpleasant issue we had was that our tour agency asked to pay aditionally for the pick up from hotel, although it wad clearly written that the pick up is included into the price. As a result we did not leave tips to our guide.

Great tour with lovely tourguide jennifer who speaks good english. She was also helpful to give us other recommendations for the dinner after the tour. Landscape is impressing and the thermals are absolutely my favorite!

Jennifer was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The day started early, at 5am. Shortly after 7am, we were at the first stop for breakfast. The view of the mountain and surrounding area was breathtaking, and it was so peaceful. Afterward, we continued to the national park with more stops and explanations of the history and changes that had impacted the area. We returned to the same restaurant for lunch and then drove back, stopping at some beautiful thermals. I was slightly nervous about the altitude, but the walks were slow, so it wasn't a problem.

Great trip with john. It's a long day, leaving early and coming back late, but it's worth it to go up and see the volcanic landscape.
