    Love it

    Climbing Piedra del Peñol is an absolute must over 740 steps lead you to one of the most stunning panoramic views in Colombia. Afterward, El Alto del Chocho Farm offered a peaceful and authentic countryside experience with incredible scenery and warm hospitality. We finished with a boat tour on the Guatapé reservoir, which was both relaxing and full of history. Just know takes your whole day. Between the climb, the farm visit, and the boat ride, it’s a full experience from morning to evening. Totally worth it if you want adventure, culture, and relaxation all in one.

    Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.

    How much does Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm cost?

    +

    Prices start at $52 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Medellín usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Medellín is not rushed.

    Is Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Medellín, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Medellín can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Medellín and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Medellín within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Medellín?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Medellín experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guatapé Tour: Piedra del Peñol with Boat Tour, Breakfast, Lunch, Half Day Bike Tour in Medellin - Local snack, Coffee or Beer, Guided Tour of Comuna 13 Medellín with Snacks Included. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Medellín?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Medellín?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm?

    +

    Included: Visit to the boardwalk, central park, church; Visit to the Pidera del Peñol, Guatape, Street of Memories, Plaza de los Zocalos; Professional guide; medical assistance card; and El Alto del Chocho Farm. Not included: Entrance fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm include hotel pickup?

    +

    Is Guatape and Stone of the Rock and Boat Tour and Farm wheelchair or stroller accessible?
