This is a great full day experience, and Julio is a fantastic guide. Honestly would have expected it to cost twice as much - you definitely get a well-filled day of activities and touring. Well suited for kids - we brought our 8 and 10 year olds. Do bring shoes that can get muddy for the coffee plantation!

Had the best day with Julio! Got to climb up piedra del Penol, explore town of Guatape, and tour a coffee farm to experience the process firsthand and have excellent Colombian coffee :) Guatape was so charming I didn’t want to leave. Julio gave lots of great info and was always accommodating, friendly and fun. Would highly recommend the Guatape & Coffee tour and Julio as a guide!

The tour was more than we could have hoped for. From the guide's experience, to the whole trip, Guatapé was well worth it.

Oscar was the best tour guide in Colombia hands-down. He was super knowledgeable and very friendly and got us in wherever we needed to go ahead of the crowds and he took pitstops for us to see extra events along the way such as feeding the llamas and the Koi fish! Which was a fantastic and fun experience

I can’t recommend this tour enough. Oscar is extremely knowledgeable and super friendly - the perfect tour guide. The coffee farm was very thorough and hands on and the walk around Guatape was beautiful. Tasting local fruits and stopping to see the llamas were great additions. Great way to spend a day.

It was great. However if you have weight issues or health concerns, you may not want to climb the steps to the top of the rock. Also, you may want to bring bug spray for the coffee, bean farm experience.

This was a great day out. I completed the solo adventure and it was perfect. I got to experience a lot of different things and take a lot of photos. I had a great tour guide and every moment I felt taken care of and supported. Great locations and a great day out.

The entire day was amazing! Yuly was the guide and she was very knowledgeable about the history and areas we visited. She spoke English and Spanish so it was easy to communicate. I highly recommend her as the guide!
