Medellín
Day 01 · Guatapé o Marinilla
Arrival in Guatapé or Marinilla
Meet & greet at the airport, arrival assistance, and private transfer to your chosen accommodation: Cannúa for nature, territory, and wellness, or The Brown for lake, design, and lifestyle. Check-in and the rest of the day at leisure, with no programmed activities. A welcome dinner is available as an add-on, not included, subject to actual flight schedule. Water, mountains, and vibrant colors compose a grand-scale scene that can be admired from the town, the reservoir, or from above.
Day 02 · Guatapé o Marinilla
Guatapé and Hotel Experience
A captivating tour of Guatapé town and contemplation of the reservoir. Ascending El Peñol Rock is optional. The afternoon is tailored to your accommodation: wellness and nature at Cannúa, or lake and lifestyle experiences at The Brown. Water, mountains, and vibrant colors compose a grand-scale scene that can be admired from the town, the reservoir, or from above.
Day 03 · Guatapé o Marinilla → Medellín
From the Mountains to Medellín
Check-out and private transfer to Medellín. Check-in and afternoon at leisure. As an enriching addition, a visit to an orchid sanctuary featuring hydrangeas or horses can be incorporated only when the route and pace allow, or as a one-night extension. The property itself is also a destination: the mountains invite you to slow down, while the reservoir opens up space to freely experience the water.
Day 04 · Medellín
Medellín: Stories of Transformation
Private tour of Comuna 13 and Moravia, focusing on memory, art, resilience, and urban transformation. A conventional City Tour is not included; the afternoon remains free. Murals, memory, and community leadership reveal how Medellín transformed territories marked by adversity into new ways of envisioning the future.
