I had a fantastic experience with Maoke travel and my tour guide Sol Saenz. She was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. My favourite was the food tour, discovering the best places to eat always requires local knowledge.

Excellent experience. More than just showing us places, they helped us understand the history and transformation of Medellín from different perspectives. It's clear they truly know the area.

Everything worked perfectly: punctual transport, spotless vehicle, excellent communication, and a guide who really knew how to manage the group's pace. You can tell there's a team behind it.

We traveled as a family and they were very flexible with us. They changed schedules, made recommendations, and were always attentive to our needs. We felt supported without feeling like we were following a rigid itinerary.

Ñ Our host was amazing: friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He answered all our questions and made the experience feel completely personalized.

We had several experiences with Maoke, and each one was different. History, gastronomy, nature, and culture were all presented by people who truly master each subject. We would definitely travel with them again.

From the very first moment, we felt that everything was under control. The guide knew the city extremely well, but the best part was how he tailored the tour to what really interested us. It didn't feel like a tour that had been memorized.

It was a wonderful experience. Luis Miguel and Alejandro are such lovely people; they showed us beautiful places and were always very attentive to everything. We had a great time in Medellín!

David Londoño, my brother, thank you for the experience, everything was 10/10, I'll definitely repeat it ❤️

Hello, I was delighted with Luis Mi's services. And Alejo's was a pleasure; highly recommended.

A really fun tour with amazing guides. Alejandro was a great help, giving us excellent recommendations for discovering "local" spots during our trip.

Medellín was one of the best destinations I visited in Colombia; it's undoubtedly a vibrant city with lovely people and delicious food. I must say, though, that our stay was greatly enhanced by our guide, Luis Miguel. He gave us a fantastic tour, created a wonderful atmosphere, and left us with amazing memories of Medellín. A million thanks for the experience!

A truly wonderful trip with a lovely, harmonious, and friendly atmosphere. We visited extraordinary places. The accommodations were very comfortable, and the transportation was perfectly suited to our destinations. A truly excellent experience.

Excellent experience, thank you for focusing on professional and high-quality service. I feel a connection to your work, and anyone who takes tours with you will have a fantastic time. Thank you so much!

An unforgettable experience, thanks to their professionalism and attention to detail.

Many thanks to Luis Miguel, we had a great experience in Medellín 👍🏾

Excellent service, David and Margarita are the best! A unique experience. I visited from Mexico and I'm leaving delighted!

Beautiful places 💜 Excellent guides David and Margarita, everything was well explained, a pleasant experience that leaves you wanting to return 🫶🏼

A wonderful experience in Medellín with David and Margarita, 100% recommended. They made us feel very pampered (as we say in Mexico, cared for). Thank you for being attentive to every detail.

Excellent guide and tour. The only downside was that the staff at Los Sauces restaurant seemed annoyed. Everything else was excellent.

Excellent tour of downtown Medellín, Comuna 13, and Pueblito Paisa. Our guide, David, was very attentive and answered all our questions. Highly recommended.

A 10-star experience! The tour to Guatapé with David Londoño exceeded all my expectations. David not only has a deep knowledge of the region's history and every detail of Guatapé and its traditional stone zócalos, but he also conveys a truly contagious passion for his homeland. What I appreciate most is his warmth and friendliness; from the very first moment, he made us feel like we were traveling with a friend, always attentive to our needs and with incredible energy. If you're looking to discover the magic of Guatapé with a professional, friendly, and expert guide, David is undoubtedly the best choice. Highly recommended!

I had a great experience with Maoke Travel. From the start, the team was responsive, organized, and easy to work with. They handled the details so I could focus on the trip itself. What stood out most was how well they listened. This wasn’t a generic itinerary. It was tailored, thoughtful, and exactly what I wanted. I always travel with Maoke Travel in Colombia. From Santa Marta to Medellín, from Cali to the Amazon, Maoke Travel has your trip covered. Everything ran smoothly. No surprises. No stress. If you want a travel partner who is reliable, efficient, and focused on your experience, Maoke Travel is the best choice.

Excellent service and staff; they are quite good at managing tours in Medellín and Antioquia.

Amazing experience with Maoke Travel in Medellín! Everything was perfectly organized, from transportation to guided tours. Very professional team, punctual and with great attention to detail. They created authentic and memorable experiences. Highly recommended!

They're great, super punctual and clear. We had a really good experience with the excursion we took.

I want to thank you for the wonderful experience I had during the tour. I found several positive aspects: - Organization: The itinerary was well-structured and allowed us to make efficient use of our time. - Customer service: The staff was friendly, helpful, and always professional. - Cultural experience: The activities offered a good balance between entertainment and learning, which enriched our trip.

Maoke is the best . The best buses , the best cars , the best tour guides and the best buffet of experiences ! You have to yes or yes visit Colombia with them

What an incredible and amazing tour guide we had in Medellin. Her name is Sol and she was an exceptional and extremely knowledgeable guide. She has made my trip very memorable.

Sol was the best guide and interpretor I have ever come across! She has a passion for her city and it shows! We had an awesome 2 days with her! Medellin and then out to Cafe de la Cima Coffee Plantation!!
