Start your day full of energy before a tour that will awaken your senses and fill your memory with unique landscapes.
We will travel to La Ceja, a place that seems taken from a storybook, where you will immerse yourself in a sea of colors and fragrances in an export flower farm. You will learn about the planting and harvesting process up close, while we reflect on life through a beautiful analogy with the growth of flowers. To make this moment even more special, you will take home a beautiful bouquet as a souvenir of this unique experience!
Then we will head to Carmen de Viboral, a charming town known worldwide for its beautiful hand-painted ceramic crafts. Here you will discover the secrets behind these unique pieces and admire the talent and tradition of their artisans.
Enjoy a typical regional lunch, with authentic flavors that will connect you with the Antioquian culture.
In the afternoon, our route continues to Guatapé, famous for its impressive reservoir that it shares with the municipality of El Peñol, for the iconic Piedra del Peñol or Peñón de Guatapé, and for the colorful facades of its houses decorated with beautiful baseboards that tell stories of tradition and culture.
Our first stop will be at the Replica of Old Peñol, a nostalgic reconstruction of the original town submerged during the creation of the reservoir. From here, we'll embark on a boat ride on the reservoir, where you'll marvel at dreamlike landscapes, islands, and mountains reflected in the water.
For the more adventurous, the imposing Peñón de Guatapé awaits (admission not included; paid locally). If you dare to climb its more than 700 steps, you'll be rewarded with a 360° panoramic view of the reservoir: a natural spectacle that will leave you breathless.
We will walk through the cheerful streets of Guatapé, exploring its craft shops, photographing its vibrant baseboards and learning about the history of one of the most photogenic towns in Colombia.
At the end of the afternoon, we will begin the return to Medellín, with our hearts full of memories and photographs that capture a day full of culture, color and nature. Arrival and transfer to your meeting point to rest and dream about what we experienced.
Years before the Guatape and El Peñol reservoir was built, the priest Jose Dolores Giraldo, parish priest of the municipality of El Peñol at that time, dreamed of a great dragon that would swallow the entire town, years later after the flood and disappearance of all the original urban center of El Peñol, said reservoir took the shape of a dragon, fulfilling the prophecy of the parish priest Jose Dolores.
