Description
If you can have the best of both sides of the city, why not doing it?
This is one of the best tours you can take when in Medellin as it brings together nature, city, art and history.
In this 6-hour tour you will learn about the commuting system in Medellín which is one of the reasons of being one of the most innovative cities worldwide.
First, the guide will pick you up at the hotel and he will take you to the cable car station that takes us to Comuna 2 viewpoint (only in the private tour)
Thereafter, you’ll head back to Santo Domingo station (meeting porint for the shared tour) to take again the cable car (included in the private tour) but this time heading to the mountains. After a 15 minutes ride, you will get to Arví station, a natural reservoir.
Arví park, on top of the eastern hills of the Medellín Valley, is a natural wonder. It is important to mention many tourists go to this place on their own, but they lose most of it, because, due to its largeness, they usually don't know where to walk, where the places are, or how to move through the mountains. But we got you covered.
Once here, we’ll walk along its various indigenous paths, creeks, and natural pools, and we will learn its history and importance. Birdwatching is a common activity in this park, as it is home to hundreds of species, both, fauna and flora.
After walking for a couple of hours on this paradise and visti the waterfalls, you’ll head back to the station and then back again to your hotel.
Give yourself the chance to mix and discover best of both great sides of this warm city.
