Overview of your Medellin tour:

We will visit the "new peñol", a small town built after the old town was flooded to give way to the hydroelectric dam of Guatapé. We will continue on our way to climb the rock of "El peñol", where at the top you will be able to appreciate the immensity of the dam and its surroundings and to experience one of the most characteristic scenic views in the whole of Colombia. After lunch, the beautiful town of Guatapé will be waiting, known for its colorful buildings, charming cobblestone streets and the interesting zócalos (colorful moulded art on the skirtings of every house). Late in the afternoon we will head to a natural reserve in a nearby town, owned and operated by a charming family, we we will have dinner and get ready to rest for the night. The next day we will wake up to explore nature, do some birding and enjoy a crystal clear river bath!
