Situated on a massive reservoir, the city of Guatapé is the perfect location for a day-trip from Medellín. Crops growing on rolling hillsides, lush, green forests, and small, charming towns adorn the road before reaching the culmination to the journey: El Peñon, a formidable monolith perched high above one of the largest reservoirs in South America. Atop El Peñon is an unparalleled view of the surrounding region that can only be achieved by climbing 649 stairs that zigzag up the 200 meter-high rock face.
The city of Guatapé itself is a quiet, breezy, friendly locale with beautifully painted homes and plenty of water-based activities. Our guests can choose from water skiing, boating, zip-lining, joining a party-cruise, or just relaxing and enjoying the scenery.

The finca was unbelievable. The house was open-aired with hammocks hanging everywhere, sitting right atop a high bluff looking down at a valley and river, with steep rock cliffs and a waterfall behind you. The horses were young and eager to run (much different than the old sway backs you get at a dude ranch!), and the food there was wonderful. -Ashley E.
Hands down, the highlight of my trip to Colombia was my stay with Marcela and Noah at Su Casa Colombia. It is clear how much they love their country and their enthusiasm is contagious! I learned so much about the culture (especially the food!) and felt that my time spent there was truly unique and authentic...livin' like a local! Our trip to the finca and waterfall rappelling was crazy fun! I knew I was in good hands and it definitely rivals sky diving for the biggest adrenaline rush I've had. And let's not forget all the wonderful food we had thanks to the incredible staff at the finca. I can't wait to go back! Thank you Su Casa Colombia! -Joanna M.
