About this experience
If you are a flowers lover and like interacting with farmers this is definitely your tour. You start your Medellin Flower tour heading towards the East of Antioquia to beautiful Santa Elena. Although it is part of Medellín, the ride will take us 40 minutes from the city. So, relax and enjoy our beautiful countryside. Surrounded by nature and at the end of narrow roads and small villages we find the flower farm. At this farm you get to learn all the history of the silletas and all kind of interesting facts that probably few local people are aware of. After this brief introduction, you take a walk around the flower crops. In our flower tour you can see, touch and smell more than 200 species of flowers. Let's Make a Silleta in Our Flower Tour Later on, you probably would like to participate in the making of a silleta. Get hands on and experience this one of a kind job.

Wonderful experience 🌺
Wonderful experience from start to finish! Alejo is an amazing guide—knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging. Diana is so sweet, and her garden is absolutely beautiful. Venus, their adorable dog, added an extra-special touch. Everything was thoughtfully arranged, and the entire experience was simply perfect. Highly recommend!

Don’t miss this traditional & cultural gem
I always prefer to do smaller, intimate cultural experiences to learn about traditions. This is such a beautiful property the owners created, all on their own over 27 years of owning the land. Truly a labor of love They designed the flower areas, walkways, cute inspirational signs. They live on the property so it is very nice of them to open it to visitors. They grow the flowers they use to make the silletas for the flower festival parade every August. They have won many awards for their designs, sooo talented and detailed! Highly recommend visiting this family to learn all about the history behind the tradition, what it represents and get to help make one yourself. Also don’t miss the chance to carry it on your back to really understand what it was like to cart goods for miles, often in the dark holding a candle in a tin can to light your way home.

Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin cost?
+
Prices start at $147 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 Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 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 Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 25 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 Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin?
+
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 Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin?
+
Around 9 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 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Flower Farm & Silletas Tour in Santa Elena Medellin 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, Comuna 13 Graffiti Tour with Street Food, More than Escobar Tour. 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.
