La Reserva Barbas Bremen Tour: Explore Biodiverse Trails and Meet Howler Monkeys in Filandia

Just 2 km from the main park of Filandia I found “La Reserva Barbas Bremen”, a natural destination where I walked trails full of varied vegetation; in which, if you are lucky, you will be able to meet the Howler Monkey, one of the largest primates in Colombia, which is only found in mountainous areas with humid and cloud forests or dry tropical forests.

Great jungle adventure! - This was an amazing day in the reserve, we heard the monkeys howling and saw them on some distance. We also saw lots of butterflies, some colibries and a coral snake! The vegetation was amazing too and we really walked inside the jungle, sometimes a bit challenging climbing over rocks and slippery slopes. An adventure for sure! Passed a couple of beautiful waterfalls as well and had a shower! Our guide Juan David was great, teaching us about plants and animals and helped everyone along the way! Thanks 🙏

Great experience - The tour in itself is absolutely beautiful, inside a lush tropical forest with a river and waterfalls, perfect for people who want to be immersed in nature. We were lucky and we could spot several monkeys, of course they don’t come too close because they’re wild animals but just watching them in their natural environment was so beautiful. And a special thanks goes to David our guide who was patient and professional with us beginners. Absolutely recommended.

Fantastic excursion with excellent guide. To recommend! - We booked the excursion "Looking for the Howler Monkey" and we found it!!! David came to pick us up in Salento and Jaime was our guide during the excursion. A Willys jeep came to pick us up in Filandia to take us to the beginning of the jungle tour. It is not a tour for people with mobility problems, but for a moderately fit person, it is a fantastic excursion, in a magical environment. Jaime knows the environment very well and gave us many explanations about what we saw. Without him, we would never have found the monkeys. Excited, we were able to watch them for a long time. Then, we continue the walk to a waterfall located in an idyllic place. We spent a very pleasant morning. On our way back to Filandia, we went to have a wonderful meal at a restaurant recommended by David. After lunch, we walked through Filandia, which is a beautiful town. Around 4:00 p.m., we called David who came to pick us up to return to Salento. To recommend without the slightest doubt. The excursion is truly worth it and the Rural Adventure staff deserve a 10 for their kindness and professionalism.

Fabolous. Life time memory - It was a very good experience with a good guide. The waterfalls were amazing. Lovely that we saw a family of monkeys at the end of the trip. I can recommend this trip to everyone.

Poor Communication - Our tour was sub contracted to another company in Filandia (Caminetas y Aventuras) & we had a successful and professionally led tour. However there was no communication from Rural Adventure so we didnt know about the change of pick up point. Only encountered our guide because we made calls ourselves. Poor communication.

Poverty - Quite an expensive walk. The only thing I saw was one monkey. Big disappointment, I expected more! In Colombia you can see and experience much more for less money or even for free.
