Colonial Santa fé de Antioquia

Walking through urban, metropolitan Medellin, it is easy to forget that this was an old Spanish Colonial city. Hi Medellin wants to take you back in time. We want you to relive the days of the Spaniards and how they transformed Colombia, some for better, some for worse.

Our bilingual tour guide will pick you up at your hotel in an air conditioned car. He will then drive you 36 miles out to the beautifully preserved colonial town while explaining all the history and legends of Medellin.This is a must-do tour for anyone who is interested in stories and lore of the days of the Spaniards. Hi Medellin wants to take you to one of the most beautiful towns in all of Colombia! You are sure to love the terracotta rooftops, charming squares and green spaces of this sweet little town, which at times feels like it is stuck in a time-warp in the 1700s, in the best way possible! 

Take a selfie on the famous suspension bridge “Puente del Occidente”, a feat of architecture still made of wooden planks that will take you over the muddy river Cauca, flanked by the gorgeous Andean mountains. Enjoy a romantic gondola ride and wander around the bougainvillea lined plazas, all of which come together to create the perfect “escape from the city”. 

Contact us and you are sure to have an unforgettable experience in the real Colombia that everyone dreams about!
