Amazing tour with Felipe. He is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Medellín and he makes the tours fun with his humour. Transportation was very comfortable and he suggested some great places to eat while we were sightseeing.
Felipe was excellent! The Tahoe was comfortable and perfect for our party of 5. Felipe was a great guide; knowledgeable and encouraging. He was patient with the kids. I highly recommend and we will do this again next time we are in Colombia.
We took a tour with PH Tours to Guatapé in early February, we were two families with 4 young kids. Felipe was extremely knowledgeable, laid back, patient and kind. We had a blast on this tour and highly recommend it to anyone looking to travel to Medellín.
PH Tours Medellín made my time in Colombia unforgettable. He was extremely knowledgeable as he took us through Comuna 13, Guatapé, Medellín, and several other places around Colombia.
Andre was fantastic. From the start, Andre was very communicative and prompt. He greeted us warmly, made us feel immediately comfortable, and our whole family felt safe in his care.
Antonio and his family at the coffee farm were so wonderful when we visited. We stayed at the farm for 6+ hours because we were having such an amazing time.
THE BEST TOUR in Medellín!!! Our tour guide, Felipe, was energetic and informative of the history of Guatapé. Do not hesitate to book with PH Tours, you will not be disappointed!
We did a full day tour in Guatapé and also wakeboard in the lake, unforgettable experience that you cannot miss!
