Highly recommend Fabian's Tatacoa Desert tour! - I had an amazing time on the Tatacoa Desert tour with Fabian. Fabian is a lovely person and great fun to be with. He organised every aspect of the tour well, down to little details like getting us the perfect spot at a café to watch the sunset at the end. The desert itself is incredible and not one to miss while in the area. It was an interesting and magical tour, thank you!

Perfect day in an unique landscape - The tour was amazing. Fabian was an amazing guide who was very nice, took care of everything and has so much knowledge and passion for the area that he shared with us. The driver who joyned us the whole day was very caring and did drive safely. From beginning to end it was a perfect day in a unique landscape and the perfect activities. We especially loved the both hikes in the different areas, the break at the swimming pool and ending the day in the observatory. We could discover the area very well and had also enough breaks in between.

Magic place - 100% recommended experience where they take you to explore the beautiful Tatacoa desert and share with locals who introduce you to their culture. You should be prepared for an intermediate level hike but they also have routes that are friendlier for the whole family. Very good guides like Don Miguel, sharing through their singing and poetry, their tradition and love for the desert. If you visit Colombia you can't miss it.

A must! - There were two of us and the tour still took place. Fabian is not only a tour guide but also a hostel owner. It was a very exciting day and Fabian was one of the best tour guides I had in Colombia. He is very knowledgeable and speaks English very well. The special thing about this tour was that Fabian was flexible and adapted the tour for us.
