DAY 1 Recorrido por la ciudad y experiencia gastronómica con lugareños

A su llegada a Medellín, su guía turístico lo estará esperando en el aeropuerto para comenzar el recorrido.

Durante el recorrido, visitará uno de los lugares más emblemáticos de Medellín, la Plaza de Botero, famosa por sus singulares esculturas del artista local Fernando Botero. Después, a solo 15 minutos de la Plaza Botero, llegaremos a Moravia, un barrio conocido por sus inspiradores proyectos comunitarios como el Jardín de Doña Marina. Aquí, aprenderá sobre los beneficios de diversas verduras y hierbas, disfrutará de un delicioso batido verde y descubrirá cómo se cultivan y cosechan estas plantas.

Después de explorar el barrio, nos preparamos para aprender a preparar auténticas empanadas paisas. En menos de 60 minutos, descubrirás de la mano de los lugareños los secretos de este apreciado plato y conectarás con las tradiciones culinarias de la región. Finalmente, saborea tu obra maestra en un ambiente acogedor que celebra la diversidad y el sabor de nuestra tierra.

Durante la clase de cocina de empanadas, aprenderás técnicas tradicionales transmitidas de generación en generación, utilizando ingredientes frescos de origen local. Prepararás un sabroso relleno de hogao (una mezcla de tomate y cebolla) y papas cocidas y sazonadas, todo envuelto en una masa de harina de maíz amarillo que le da a las empanadas su textura y sabor característicos.

Al final de la tarde nos dirigiremos al hotel para descansar.

Nota: Para este tour, recomendamos reservar un vuelo que llegue a Medellín entre las 10:00 y las 11:00 a. m. Esto garantizará una recogida sin contratiempos y nos permitirá comenzar el recorrido por la ciudad a tiempo.

Overnight: Medellin - NH Colletion or similar
Meal Plan: Snacks

DAY 2 Tour gastronómico “Plaza Minorista"

El guía lo recogerá temprano por la mañana para visitar el Mercado Minorista José María Villa. Esta experiencia lo llevará a recorrer uno de los lugares patrimoniales de la ciudad: el Mercado Minorista.

Para comprender verdaderamente una cultura, es necesario sumergirse en sus mercados locales y observar su ritmo cotidiano. Esta es la convicción de nuestra anfitriona, la chef Meli Ospina, quien diseñó este recorrido hace 17 años para enseñar tanto a locales como a visitantes la importancia de explorar este mercado. Nos guiará por sus laberínticos pasillos, ricos en patrimonio cultural, compartiendo en el camino las tradiciones de las diversas regiones de Colombia, desde el Pacífico hasta la Amazonía.

Este es un viaje cultural narrado a través de los sabores, las herramientas, las prácticas artesanales y los ingredientes que conforman el alma de Colombia. Algunos de estos elementos aún perduran, pero muchos se están desvaneciendo lentamente, ya que no queda nadie que perpetúe la tradición. Estos son saberes transmitidos oralmente, que ahora corren el riesgo de perderse junto con los oficios y tareas ancestrales que han dado identidad a nuestras comunidades durante generaciones.

Comenzaremos el día con un desayuno tradicional colombiano, con arepa paisa (un pan plano de harina de maíz típico de la región de Antioquia), huevos cocidos con condimentos locales, calentado (un plato abundante de arroz y frijoles recalentados) y una bebida caliente de su elección.

Luego comenzaremos a degustar una amplia variedad de frutas de todo el país, junto con dulces tradicionales y bebidas tradicionales conocidas por sus propiedades medicinales.

Esta experiencia es un recorrido por la rica gastronomía colombiana, una oportunidad para honrar el trabajo de agricultores y artesanos rurales, cuya dedicación nos permite disfrutar de nuestros alimentos. A lo largo del recorrido, aprenderemos a identificar ingredientes locales y exploraremos prácticas de consumo responsable que promueven el desperdicio cero.

Al finalizar el recorrido regresaremos al hotel y tendrás la tarde libre para explorar la ciudad.

Overnight: Medellin - NH Colletion or similar
Meal Plan: Breakfast, snacks

DAY 3 Excursión de un día a Guatapé, comida callejera y traslado al aeropuerto.

Lo recogeremos de su hotel en Medellín y conduciremos aproximadamente dos horas y media hasta Guatapé, un pintoresco pueblo popular entre los colombianos. La plaza principal alberga una iglesia tradicional y tiendas de artesanía. Cerca de allí, puede subir más de 600 escalones hasta El Peñol, un monolito de granito de 200 metros, para disfrutar de impresionantes vistas del embalse de esmeraldas. La subida es manejable, pero puede ser difícil para quienes tienen problemas de rodilla.

En el pueblo pasearemos por sus coloridas calles mientras degustamos pequeños bocados tradicionales, tanto dulces como salados, que forman parte del rico patrimonio culinario de la región.

Degustarás una variedad de queridas especialidades colombianas que resaltan la rica herencia culinaria del país y su pasión por los dulces y sabrosos postres. Disfruta de suaves panecillos de queso, panes de harina de maíz ligeramente dulces, bollitos de yuca y pasteles salados rellenos de ingredientes tradicionales. Prueba arepas rellenas de huevo frito, tortas de maíz dulce, esponjosos rollos de yuca y bolitas de queso doradas. Cada bocado revela un sabor único y una historia de la vibrante cultura gastronómica colombiana. Además, visitaremos un mercado local saludable que ofrece una variedad de opciones veganas y vegetarianas frescas para equilibrar la dieta y garantizar que todos disfruten de esta experiencia gastronómica.

Después de disfrutar de toda esta comida, llegaremos a una acogedora cafetería donde participarás en un taller interactivo para crear y pintar tu propio zócalo. Esta actividad te permitirá expresar tu creatividad y llevarte a casa un recuerdo único y personalizado de tu visita. Guiado por artesanos locales, el taller también ofrece una perspectiva interesante sobre la historia y la importancia cultural de estas icónicas obras de arte.

Al finalizar el recorrido, lo trasladaremos al aeropuerto.

– Paolo, April 2025

Blown Away

I'll write 2 reviews. First the quick one; every detail was taken care of, the destinations are world class, communication was excellent. I would give them 6 out of 5 if I could.

The guide UC booked for us was exceptional. He knew his stuff, was very good with e-bird, he was an intersting guy and an overall good bean. Our tour actually started in Barranquilla - we were met at the airport, taken to the finest hotel in town. The next day we were taken on a city tour. I didn't know much about the city so I was very pleasantly by how much I liked it. The carnival museum is fabulous, we really enjoyed the boardwalk around a lagoon.

Tour of Medellin and local villages.

Sol, our tour guide, was amazing. We did a three day tour of Medellin and local villages nearby. Sol shared her vast knowledge of the political and social recent history of the region. She led the tour at our pace. She was lovely to be with. The driver was very cautious. It was a great experience.

– Lynn, February 2025

Great to work with!

Uncover Colombia was fantastic to work with! We had a 12 day itinerary and everything went very well. The agency reps were very flexible before and during the trip even when we requested last minute changes. They always did their best to accommodate us. The assigned contact person during the trip was always reachable and responsive. Even later at night. She sent me our guides contact information before each leg of the trip and they also reached out as we were arriving . The guides were all good and the vehicles were comfortable. I definitely would use them again and refer my friends as well.

– Gary, December 2024

Great organization - even at short notice!

My girlfriend and I wanted to visit Colombia, but were late in the planning. We reached out to Uncover just a couple of weeks before our departure and they were able to organize the whole tour in just a few days, and for a more than fair price...

– David, December 2025

We highly recommend!

We had a FANTASTIC experience with Uncover. Nidia and her team organized the most magical 4-day trip to the Colombian Coffee Region. I am Colombian but needed assistance as I wasn’t familiar with the area. We went to the Cocora Valley, Rafting down a river, had a fabulous coffee farm experience and even visited a cacao farm where we got to make artisan chocolate. We traveled with our school aged children...

3 Week Tour of Colombia

We feel very fortunate to have chosen Uncover Colombia. Your guides were passionate and professional and informative, the accomodation was exceptional at every stop and most impressively, we were aware of you constantly checking in our wellbeing. We return to Australia with an awareness of Colombia’s variety, vitality and positivity.

Amazing tour with Uncover Colombia - San Agustin, Tierradentro and Tatacoa

My mother and I did a 5-day trip to San Agustin, Tierradentro and the Tatacoa dry forest/desert with Uncover Colombia. It was absolutely brilliant. The communication was great and Nidia helped us to ensure that the trip was tailored to our needs and wishes. Our driver, Jesus, and guide, Jorge, were very friendly and Jorge was very knowledgable. I can highly recommend using Uncover Colombia for your trip!

– Nora, February 2024

Highly Recommended

Uncover Columbia, specifically Helena (who handled all logistical questions pre-trip) Sergio (our amazing guide) helped make an unforgettable 4 day experience as part of our honeymoon.

– Mates, July 2024

Every day a different experience and not a moment wasted

Uncover Colombia did a wonderful job of providing me with a itinerary covering some of the best of Colombia's many highlights covering cities and villages, mountains and beaches, and more, and accommodating my own wishes and preferences. Every day was a different experience and a chance to see something completely different from my own life, not a moment was wasted and I never felt rushed.

4 day Amazonas Tour

It was actually two whole days plus two half days. Everything was well organized. I was accompanied by our guide Sergio from the first to the last minute. He was very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. The program was very exciting and I felt safe and in good hands at any time.

– Rob, February 2023

A perfect organization!

I'm the Italian President of CIGV (Club Internazionale Grandi Viaggiatori) and I decided to organize the trip to Colombia for 14 club members selecting Uncover Colombia agency. The program they made has been fantastic, touching the most interesting sites of this country but also their, guides, drivers and hotel selection I found simply perfect. Not a mistake, never a delay. I would recommend this agency to everyone...

– Luca, January 2023

Great tour of Salt Cathedral

Myself and my wife did a private tour with Juan Carlos to the Salt Cathedral. The tour and Juan Carlos were both great. He had an intimate knowledge of the Salt Cathedral having worked there previously, and also knew a lot about the nearby town and local area. It's a really fascinating structure, and would definitely recommend visiting it if you're in Bogota.

– Barra M, January 2023

Arranged an incredible two week trip

We had an amazing two weeks tour arranged by Uncover Colombia for our honeymoon. Nidia suggested great hotels and activities and made adjustments based on our feedback. All our tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable and professional with excellent English. Great activities in a beautiful country. They've got a UK-base so are ATOL protected - reassuring given uncertainty with travel at the moment. 

– Louise, October 2022

Fantastic 15 day Tour of Colombia

We selected Uncover Colombia after reading their great reviews online and it was definitely the right choice. They were the best communicators and within a few emails back and forwards, we had tailored our perfect tour. We spent 15 days traveling Colombia, with all connections, accommodation and activities being handled by Uncover...

– Ben, September 2022

7 extra days in Colombia

We needed a tailored tour to follow a wedding we were attending and wanted to make the most of our travels. Nidia was helpful, responsive and excellent in organising our trip from Periera to Medellin, Cartagena and Bogota. Everything worked like clockwork. Our 3 guides (one for each place) were also perfect, Andreas, Roberto & Camilo. They knew their stuff, were responsive and very personable.

– Daniel, August 2022

 

Local experts of "Uncover Columbia" is the best

They Organized activities in Bogota, Medellin and Cartagena for the two of us. They modified the activities to our needs of seeing wilderness as well as a local culture. Been around the word a few times, we were a little demanding as well. They came thru on everything at a very reasonable price.. Pays to have local organizers like them who truly know Columbia and the needs of the Clients...
