Medellín Culture and Bike Tour

Medellín Culture and Bike Tour

A Journey through the Nature and Culture of its People

Colombia's biodiversity can equal to 20% of the planet's total

This is a 12 days’ tour that uses as base Medellín to go and visit some of the most important places of Antioquia region in which you will enjoy easy-medium bicycle rides mixed with cultural experiences along the way that will give you a closer approach to the ¨Paisa¨ culture (people of Antioquia). Do not miss this great chance!

The idea is that during this Roadtrip you will have a professional tour guide, plus a driver with your van and the Bikes all the time, so you can have a personalized high class service, going from the big city to small pretty colonial style towns deep inside the mountains full of amazing views surrounded by forest, plantations and hundreds of different greens in a very biodiverse nature, so you can have a time for easy rides and cultural tours that will end up in a medium non luxury type of hotel comfortable enough to enjoy a nice experience either in the city or the countryside.
