This tour offers convenient transport to one of Colombia’s must-see destinations: the imposing rock formation known as La Piedra de Guatapé, or El Peñol. Situated approximately 1.5 hours away from Medellín, near the border of Guatapé and El Peñol, this colossal monolith stands over 200 metres (650 feet) tall, making it an unmistakable landmark visible from afar.
Your journey includes the opportunity to ascend to the summit of La Piedra, where you can leisurely soak in the panoramic 360° views of the stunning lake and its surrounding landscapes. At the summit's small platform, you can also purchase refreshments and souvenirs from local vendors.
Following the rock excursion, the tour proceeds to the charming, vibrant town of Guatapé. Stroll along its cobblestone streets at your own pace, taking in the intricate decorative panels adorning the bases of the houses, each reflecting the unique themes chosen by the homeowners. Finally, the tour concludes with a return trip to Medellín, where you will be dropped off at your hotel or preferred location within the city limits.
