Best tour ever! Very affordable for a day packed with adventure! It was organized and well communicated! Had so much fun! Highly recommend :)
Tour guide Francisco is gentle, friendly, caring, attentive, gave clear briefings and amber time for every stop. Skillful driver gave us very smooth ride. Itinerary packed with iconic and popular attractions, and no hard selling. 👍🏻 Fellow tour visitors were helpful, friendly and we had a great day.
This was a nice trip. I have done it three times with different agencies. This time we barely had time to spend in the town. We had 1 hr including eating lunch so realistically 15 minutes. Other tours gave us more time.
The crew did an amazing job of explaining what to expect and the day unfolded exactly as stated. The visit to the City of Guadapa (big rock) and boat ride was especially nice
This tour was a complete disaster. Our tour guide Fernanda was the least helpful/knowledgeable tour guide I have had in Colombia or any other travels around the world. Her English is low-level and we often were not sure what she said and would ask my son to tell us what she said in Spanish. She did not have any respect for our experience or the punctuality of the group, she was just texting on her cellphone and talking to the driver. I encourage this company to train their guides to be interested on providing a great experience. It seems they just cared about being paid. More importantly, Fernanda’s scrips were very short on detail. For example-we were not told we couldn’t sit in an entire area of the restaurant so we had to move and share a table. (Sharing the table was fine. It was just not being told ahead of time clear directions for where we could and couldn’t sit. ) At each stop Fernanda told us clearly when to be back but very little else about the stop/history, etc. it is possible she told us more than I know, because her English really needs improvement. I would never recommend this tour to anyone. Please book somewhere else, because this will be a nightmare for you as it was for my family and I.
They were very accomodating, and regularly sought feedback to ensure the trip was going well. Guide was enthusiastic. Excellent value for money.
Good experience, punctual. I feel that the music on the boat was too loud, but way too loud; otherwise, very good value for money.
The visit went very well, the different sites were very beautiful and interesting. The only problem was that we had arranged for them to pick me up at Poblado Park, which was done, but at the end nothing was planned to take me back there. I waited at the agency, which ordered a taxi for me that I paid for.
Very complete and cute tour, we were searched from the hotel, we were taken to breakfast and from there we set off towards Guatape, the navigation was very nice
If you are looking for transportation to one of the most touristic places, this is it. The tour is uninformative outside 10 minutes at the start. The boat is giant and there's a lot of noise. Restaurants are for mass audiences, but it's okay for the price.
All very nice places and where we ate, all very rich and very friendly people, unfortunately, in our truck, the driver was a little rude and our guide a little uninterested, left some people in one place and we only waited 5 min.. I understand perfectly the issue of punctuality but I think they could handle that better. At every stop they pushed a lot over time.
Good experience, they give you what they offer, Valentina is a great guide, we have a great time the places are spectacular
Disfrutamos mucho del lugar, especialmente lo novedoso y llamativo de los colores que adornan el entorno. Por otro lado, me agradó el barco rumbero y la narrativa colombiana, para contar la historia de lo que mostraban....buen trato y excelente comida la que nos ofreció el restaurante al que Luis, el guía, nos llevó. Gracias por darnos un buen momento y un excelente registro para nuestra memoria.
Highly recommended, everything was great, food, visits, transportation, attention, view from the Peñol. Everything was excellent!
Fue una experiencia increíble, con un grupo genial y un guía excepcional. Gracias Luis por compartir el amor a su tierra. Una moción especial a nuestro chófer que nos hizo sentir seguros todo el día.
Fernanda is amazing as Guide, from the first moment he makes sure to be attentive to everyone and always giving the explanations as clear as possible, he took care that we did not need anything and that we had enough time to enjoy each part of the tour. The tour is very complete and the price is worth every penny.
Excellent experience. In my case I was alone and our guide Fernanda, from the first moment, was involved so that we could have a great time. Everything very well organized and explained. A 10 for Fernanda and the driver.
More than I expected, I met interesting places and people. All the staff were very attentive to all the travelers and on each journey they waited and explained the history well. I learned a lot.
A very complete tour, including food, mobility, everything. We were very happy, we took many photos, everything was very fun. With happy music on the bus and on the boat.
Excellent service and very friendly lady in charge Marcela, nice experience and highly recommended I thank you for your service.

The guide was excellent, the views were incredible, we took many photos, I recommend them, very good service to visit the destination
It is incredible how you can see everything from the stone, we took many photographs, it was a very pleasant walk all day, highly recommended
A highly recommended, very complete tour, the food, the bus ride. Marcela was very friendly and attentive, they provided a very good service, and they helped us in purchasing souvenirs.
A beautiful place, the guide was very knowledgeable and attentive, a tour with several stations, the party boat and the view from the rock I loved it It's worth it Recommended 100%
I loved the service with them, highly recommended. I made the trip on Saturday, February 10 with some friends and we liked it a lot.
Excellent experience, from the reservation with Marcela to the guide who did an excellent job. I recommend the excursion 100%
The Tours with Chivas Rumba are excellent. It is a responsible, honest company committed to its work. I highly recommend its different destinations such as Guatapé, Comuna 13, etc., since you will attend these places with qualified and responsible personnel, which will give you the best experience during your visit to Medellín.
I had a great time!! I loved everything, your service is super good, the boat tour was very fun, and the food was delicious. Thank you very much, I will do the tour again with you but this time with my family!! Thank you 😁
Excelente tour, muy bien organizado, de cada lugar me llevo hermosas fotos Guatape un lugar encantador, la guia y el conductor del bus muy formales, atentos y puntuales
