The family was very friendly and the son explained everything in English for us too which we appreciated.”

“Terrific scenery and swimming in waterfalls and natural pools. Also enjoyed a wonderful local lunch in Barbosa. The ATVs were new, clean, perfect condition.

Medellín adventure day: Colombia's 1400m zipline, 150m hammocks, and a hike to El Salto del Buey waterfall.
“Me and my family had an amazing experience thanks to Diego and the rest of the team! Diego, the tour guide, was very kind and punctual and did a great job of showing and advising us different things on the way to the mountains and on site too. There are amazing views of the mountains, waterfall, farms and plantations. Beautiful experience of laying in the hammocks on heights with a view on the mountains and waterfalls, ziplines, hikings and waterfalls were very fascinating! We had a lot of fun and it was a day full of nice emotions! Massive thank you to the whole team and Diego personally! We enjoyed…”
