Overview

WELCOME to Colombia's most charming and colorful tour: the GUATAPÉ TOUR!

We start with a DELICIOUS BREAKFAST. Then, we will visit the TOWN OF PEÑOL and its FAMOUS REPLICA. The best is yet to come! The PIEDRA DEL PEÑOL challenges you with its 700 steps. Are you up for climbing and enjoying a 360º view? You can do it! After a TRADITIONAL LUNCH, we will take a relaxing PREMIUM BOAT RIDE to admire the incredible landscapes and properties. Later, we will visit the town of Guatapé with our guide: CALLE DE LAS SOMBRILLAS, PLAZA DE LOS ZÓCALOS, CALLE DEL RECUERDO, and PARQUE CENTRAL, and you will have time to explore at your own pace. Finally, we will interact with adorable animals such as LLAMAS. Discover the magic of Guatapé on a tour you will always remember!

To start the day with the best energy, we will take a short break along the way to enjoy a rich traditional breakfast.

Next, we will pass through the town of the New Peñol, whose urban center was built as a result of the relocation of the inhabitants of the Old Peñol when the construction of the Guatapé dam became effective. As we drive down its main street, we will see the iconic sculpture of the Phoenix, symbolizing the rebirth of the community, and a colorful mural honoring tomato growers, key figures in the region's economy and culture.
4. Parque Tematico Replica del Viejo Penol
Our first stop is the Réplica of the Old Peñol, a scale replica of the old town square where we can enjoy a majestic view of the dam and admire the colonial style of its architecture. Get your camera ready and take a photo of yourself dressed up in a ruana on one of the balconies of the establishments you'll find there!
