Your private group excursion to Guatapé! You will go to the top of El Peñol and beyond on this cultural and eco-adventure in Guatapé. You will learn the deeper and inclusive history of what El Peñol meant for the indigenous Tahamí and the Antioqueños people who once lived where the grand reservoir is today. After you take on the challenge of the 740 steps to the top of the second biggest rock in South America, you will be rewarded with a majestic 360-degree view of the reservoir and islands. You will come back down to reality, but not before you enjoy a stroll through the colorful town, and escape the touristic scene to support and enjoy a local farm fresh lunch. You will take to the lake for an eco-tour of the reservoir and a swim if you are all in in the lake or waterpark. Guatapé awaits you! Note: Reservoir water levels may vary in seasons of low rains or electricity consumption, so if the waterpark option is not available, you can still enjoy the lake on the eco-tour.
