Fabulous tour!
Stiven and Fabio ate the dynamic duo, they made the trip very memorable. From the moment we contacted Maxitours via whatsapp to out drop off at the hotel, we enjoyed every moment. Fabio made sure we arrived to our destinations safely and Stiven made sure we enjoyed the experience. I would highly recommend using Maxitour for your tours in Colombia. Thank you Stiven and Fabio for a wonderful tour. Saludos desde Aruba.

Good Stress-Free Tour
First, the tour is a fantastic, stress-free way to tour Guatapé from Medellín. Stiven, the tour guide, and Flavio, the driver, were an excellent team and accomodated English- and Spanish-speaking tour members.

Why this scores 93
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tour Guatapé: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cali.
How much does Tour Guatapé cost?
+
Prices start at $55 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cali usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tour Guatapé 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 Cali is not rushed.
Is Tour Guatapé worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 1,165 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Cali, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tour Guatapé?
+
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 Tour Guatapé 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 Tour Guatapé?
+
Around 408 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 Cali 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 Cali and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tour Guatapé 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 Cali 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 Cali?
+
On Outty we rank every Cali experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include A day to enjoy nature and have an adventure in the Jordan river, Shared Tour of the Historical and Cultural Center of Cali, City Tour + Commune 13 Medellin. 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 Cali?
+
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 Cali?
+
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.
