A perfect day trip for the adventurous soul! - This was my first time ever paragliding, and overall the experience was amazing! We went to a beautiful spot a couple hours outside of Medellin overlooking a waterfall, river, and town below. The glider took us over all of these viewpoints many times so there was lots of time to truly take in the scenery. Highly recommend for anyone who’s looking for their first paragliding adventure! We did not opt for the Guatape tour afterwards as we had already seen it a couple days prior, but the tour guide offered to take us to Parque Arvi to ride the cable car overlooking the city and do an e-bike tour of the park, and we had a nice dinner at a local restaurant afterwards. These offers were optional and we are very happy we took him up on them, because we would have missed these experiences otherwise. All in all, this day trip was a great way to cap off our last day in Colombia. ECO Adventures had a huge variety of fun activities that are worth trying, and the guide is very friendly and accommodating and gave us a lot of insight on the history of each place we went to. We hope to come back sometime soon and explore the other activities they have!

Paragliding Masters - I really enjoyed this excursion. The paragliding was one of the best calming experiences I've had. Highlly recommend this tour! My tour guide, Fabian ,was very helpful. He kept me fully informed throughput the weather delay. Helped me with several self-inflcted issues, like losing my earbud case. He was particularly helpful in helping book an additional tour with the owner. It was a great day. Well worth the money.

My first experience 🪂 - I was extremely impressed with how organized and professional service this tour agency is because they pick you up at the exact time and explained how the process works. I learned a lot about Medellin during my travel to our destination and I’m happy that I landed in the same spot where I took off and especially the GoPro camera was a plus. I would definitely book with them again!

Doing this with Fabian is a must!!!!! - This is a once in a lifetime experience. Fabian is a must as a tour guide!!!! His English is very polished, he has a great reputation with everyone we ran into, and he always has a trick up his sleeve. He is a very passionate guide, and it was obvious that he loved to do what he does. The paragliding was outstanding. Our instructors were energetic and obviously love what they do. Guatape is beautiful and very unique. I would recommend going on a Monday because I have been told traffic is exponentially worse on the weekends. You must go up the rock. It is a very unique experience. I would say to make sure to not have any plans for after the excursion because it frees you up to have time for meals or a drink in between moments. This was by far the best excursion we did!!!! Muchas Gracias Fabian 🙏🏽

Soaring with the birds- riding the thermals! - Fabián did a fantastic job guiding me to and from the Paragliding facility. Unbelievable views. Now you know what the birds experience everyday. No motors or noise. Felt completely safe with our experienced glider. Would highly recommend!

Un día maravilloso en Colombia - Amazing Day in Colombia! Paragliding over La Perla falls, very fun and informative coffee tour in Guatape, Hiking up El Peñón, and finally seeing the nightlife and beautiful colors of downtown Guatape. Julian did a fantastic job with our group and was very accommodating. 10/10 would come back and bring more friends and family.

Excellent - I’m extremely late at posting this review, but I just wanted to take time out to acknowledge this company. My friends/family and I had a wonderful time. We felt safe and our driver/guide Julian was amazing. I definitely recommend and upon our return, we will be patronizing them again.

Luxury service and incredible adventure! - We had a little hiccup starting our adventure, but Julian swiftly made sure any inconvenience was resolved. Julian picked us up from El Poblado in his beautiful SUV, took us on a tour of Rionegro and beautiful neighborhoods since we mentioned we were considering buying land, drove us to the Cocorna valley and left us at our hotel in Guatapè. He was attentive, informative and knew also when to let us take the views and relax. He even helped us with few errands like stopping for groceries and an ATM for our stay in Guatape. Julian offers a fantastic personalized experience, luxury transport and an unforgettable adventure. He works with locals acting as a broker so your adventure needs are met! We absolutely loved this tour, the views, paragliding and los paisajes of la bella Antioquia. ***Paragliding over the Cocorna valley and waterfall is worth every penny! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Recommended!
