5 days in Medellin Itinerary

Nestled between rising hills in a narrow valley, Medellin serves as an energetic melting pot of people from all socio-economic classes.

Change things up with a short trip to Piedra Del Penol in Guatape (about 1h 50 min away). There's still lots to do: get up close and personal with brilliant marine life at Parque Explora, get the lay of the land with Walking tours, get great views at Cerro Nutibara, and steep yourself in history at Pueblito Paisa.
