The experience

You start with a drive to Santa Fe de Antioquia, then move straight into the ATV portion: a ride through countryside and river crossings where you operate the 450cc vehicle yourself. The route passes through water and natural terrain, so expect to get wet and muddy. After the riding, you return to the colonial town on foot to explore its streets, visit a museum to learn the area's history, and taste exotic fruits grown locally. The day ends at the western bridge, a monumental structure that crosses the Cauca River, before the drive back to your hotel.

Private transportation means no shared van or fixed schedule with other groups: your guide adjusts the pace and timing to your comfort level. The guide speaks English or Spanish and travels with you throughout. Children from age 5 are welcome, and the operator notes the activity suits all fitness levels, though riding an ATV and walking colonial streets on a warm day requires basic mobility and comfort on an unfamiliar machine.

How long is the full day, and does it leave time for anything else?
