We have Suzuki DR 200S and Honda CRF 250F motorcycles great for riding the back trails on the outskirts of Medellín. We take care of everything, from the moment we pick you up at your doorstep you will be taken care of by English-speaking team members so you can focus on having fun riding the trails on this super fun Enduro motorcycle tour!
Helicopter Tours
Medellín. There are lots of beautiful places in the state of Antioquia to visit, but the long hours driving on windy, treacherous roads are let’s face it, a tiresome and uncomfortable affair. Towns like Jardín and Jericó are unspeakably beautiful with their frozen-in-time atmosphere, coffee plantations, views, and friendly inhabitants. But the 3 to 4-hour drive each way on windy, treacherous mountain roads makes our helicopter tours the best, most comfortable way to visit them on a day trip. Also there’s helicopter skydiving 1.5 hours from Medellín!
The Forgotten Road
Medellín. A magical gravity powered bike ride down 35 kms (21 mi) on an old forgotten country rode that was replaced by a new modern tunnel road west of Medellín makes for an unparalleled opportunity to experience the Colombian countryside starting at a chilly misty pass and ending in the hot valley at the bottom, 2,000 mt ( 6,560 ft) elevation drop with great views, coffee trees, country folk, cows, mules, birds, great food, and no physical effort at all!
The Tunnel Tour
Medellín. Great day of fun doing canyoning or coffee tour, with a 10 minute ride through a narrow, dark and dank 4 km (2.5 mi) long tunnel built by pick-ax over a century ago for a railway system that no longer exists and that some say is haunted by ghosts from a train carrying cotton that caught fire inside in 1912. Dare you cross through this tunnel in a local train dolly? (If you want to put a scare in your cocky friends, just let us know!)
Kitesurfing
There are kitesurfing spots all over the Caribbean coast going from Cartagena all the way to the northernmost tip of South America, Punta Gallinas. There are also inland spots like Lake Calima close to Salento and Cali.
We’ll design your kitetrip and take care of everything. If you don’t have experience it doesn’t matter. You can start with beginner’s kite camp in places like Lake Calima or while road tripping over the Caribbean beaches and Guajira desert. Furthermore, you’ll be learning from our different affiliated schools in all the spots.
If downwind is your thing, we have some awesome day and multi-day downwinders in the desert!
Skydiving
We’ve been doing skydiving in Cartagena but for now it’s not operational, but the good news is … we now have skydiving in Medellín, and from a helicopter!
Guanabana will organise your entire skydiving trip for an unforgettable experience jumping 10,000 feet over the Caribbean Ocean and landing right on the beach!
Colombian Safari & Dude Ranch
Embark on an exhilarating Colombian safari deep into the enchanting Eastern Plains, a realm where untamed beauty meets the heart-pounding allure of wildlife wonders. This extraordinary journey unveils the domain of majestic jaguars, graceful anacondas, and the iconic capybaras, alongside a captivating ensemble of deer and diverse wildlife.
Sailing Cartagena
Sail out on a day trip around Cartagena bay or overnighters to the Rosario Islands on a sailboat! We have plenty of spots with crystalline azure waters to visit and anchor. Take a swim, bring your cameras, sit back and relax as we navigate around the Bay of Cartagena, the Island of Tierra Bomba and the Spanish Fort of San Fernando, or explore the Rosario Islands.
The Captain will be encouraging you to participate in a learn-as-you go hands-on sailing lesson if you and your group want to learn about sailing.

As crazy as this may sound this world exists, and only could it exist in the Macondian world of Gabriel García Marquez: Colombia. Watch this 1:45 video!:
Testimonials
fun trip!
“everything they said it would be! Great to get photos and video of rafting trip included! Fantastic guides who really cared about your well being and enjoyment!! Highly recommended.”
Tunnel tour, great experience!
The tunnel tour was lots of fun! Combining an amazing ride in a small train through a dark tunnel and the jungle with a great atmosphere resulted in a day I wouldn’t want to have missed. As for the abseiling, you are secured by two professionals so there was no feeling of unsafety whatsoever. Passing through the small towns along the way was a great way to see the Colombian life in the countryside, away from the huge city Medellin. If you are looking for an advantarous day being outside, this tour is a good choice! P.s. The abseiling will be filmed by drone 🙂
Must do in Medellín
The forgotten road.
“This was one of my favorite activities in all of Colombia. Firstly, entire ride is downhill so is very easy. Secondly, the views from this ride are spectacular. The road is mostly empty and so its a great way to get away in the mountains and enjoy the scenery. We did several tours with Guanabana nd would highly receommend them. They are professional, punctual, and there English speaking guides are first rate.”
