Magical place
The walks to enter and leave the Valley are very pleasant, with incredible views and wonderful pools and waterfalls for bathing; the difficulty is medium, with heat and humidity as the main challenge. The walk to the viewpoint is very difficult, the guide mistakenly told us that it was 4 km, but really it is 7 km (round trip is 14 km), of very difficult ascents; however, it was worth getting to the top and seeing the valley from this view. The stay at Giovany and Alba's house was perfect, with very rich traditional food and a very nice house.

Near Medellin. Beautiful and exclusive landscape! Nice initiative with the community and the environment!
Very good experience near Medellin. We went with my wife and my 2 year old son. The landscape is beautiful and very exclusive! The tour was very well organized and we even had mules for my son! The social tree reforestation project with local inhabitants, victims of the conflict, is very nice! Thank you natural adventure for this experience! I hope to repeat soon! Koen
Response from the operator: Nos alegra ver una familia que comparte con su hijo en la naturaleza y le enseña la importancia de su conservación. Muchas gracias por acompañarnos!!

Breathtaking nature
The 2-day hiking trip through the valley of the waterfalls was a very special experience. Breathtaking nature with a very enthusiastic guide. Camilo has a lot of knowledge about the local ecosystems and the history of Columbia. Great guy!

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Waterfalls Valley near Medellin: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Waterfalls Valley near Medellin cost?
+
Prices start at $190 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 Waterfalls Valley near Medellin take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 Waterfalls Valley near Medellin worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 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 Waterfalls Valley near 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 Waterfalls Valley near Medellin suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 8. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 48-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Waterfalls Valley near Medellin?
+
Around 7 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Waterfalls Valley near 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, Half-Day Coffee Tour: From the Seed to the Cup, Farm & roastery, Private Guatape & Coffee Farm Tour: The Two Must do in One Day. 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.
