The experience
The day starts with pickup from your hotel in Medellín. The drive to the facility takes roughly an hour. You'll arrive to coffee and a briefing before climbing onto your quad bike, a 4x4 XL machine kept in working condition for the terrain. From there the ride moves into the mountains around Guarne, stopping at viewpoints and waterfalls where you can swim if the water calls to you. The guide, trained in both safety and keeping the adrenaline high, speaks English or Spanish and steers the route through the kind of riding that justifies the trip.
The fishing lake sits at the end of the ride. Instead of a plated meal, you catch your own lunch: a detail that separates this from a standard tour stop. The operator prepares it in the local style, so you eat what the region actually eats. Protective equipment, quality photos and videos of the ride, and health insurance all travel with you. When the 5 hours close out, the same transportation takes you back to where you started.
Is this one for you?The pickup from your hotel means you don't need a car or directions to find the starting point. You step into the ride already in motion. If you're staying in Medellín without your own transport, this removes the logistics of getting to the mountains and back.

No. Private transportation picks you up from your hotel or your preferred location in Medellín and brings you back after the ride ends.
