Living in a small town with a stunning mountain backdrop, Guatape makes me appreciate the virtue of a safe, tranquil and down to earth life. When you get out of the big city, you don’t really miss it much and this is a gorgeous place! The Go Pro pictures don’t do it justice. Its a perfect retirement spot for people wanting to live out their lives. Would been a shame had you ended your stay in Colombia with Medellin. In all honesty, this is the perfect coda to your trip there and Guatape is definitely a place you have to go to once in your lifetime. In my opinion, getting away from the typical tourist trap was worth it. Thanks for the memories and sharing with us the highlights of a beautiful country! Safe travels and be blessed.
Wow, encanto is the word, so beautiful place, we can see this kind of towns just in movies, I never thought that places like this really exist, Thank you for this marvelous video
The're several towns of similar environment in Colombia. Some town like Barichara, Villa de Leyva, Mompox, to mention a few. Give look in Google images.
LenisVlogs I love Colombia 🇨🇴 too. It's my parents' home and has been my home for 23 years now. I'm Gringo 🇺🇸 Paisa 🇨🇴 y prefiero Este Pais mucho mas que la USA. Vamos Colombia! Let's go Colombia!
Sorry, Medellin, but it looks like you're going to have to make room at the top of my list of the best towns in Colombia 😁 It's funny that my first thought was - when I saw your stories from (Insta-)Guatape - that the spectacular views from that rock must largely compensate for the lack of opportunity to shoot from a drone like at Meteora 😍 And even though it was only a day trip, this is definitely one of my favorite videos in your Colombian series 👏🏻
Hello Alina! 😁🙏👋🌟 I hope your having a wonderful marvelous day! This is really a beautiful super magnificent video! The music in the video sounds excellent! 😄👍❤️👏🇨🇴📹🎶🥇💯✨🌟 Wow! The town of Guatapé looks absolutely beautiful! The architecture of the buildings and the artwork is magnificent! Also the view from the rock of Guatapé looks so amazing! The food looks really delicious! I would definitely like to visit the wonderful town of Guatapé one day. It’s really a marvelous place! Thank you so much Alina to share with us your magnificent amazing travel adventures around the world. You are the best and greatest world traveler adventurer! 😃👍👏🌎✈️📹🧳🗺🥇💯🏆✨🌟 I wish you Alina a wonderful beautiful glorious blessed day. Take care and be safe Alina. 😊🙏❤️👋👍✨🌟
Hi Alina and everyone. Guatapé is pretty cool 😎 and safe for foreigners to visit. I've gone there like around 10 times in my life. Highly recommend that picturesque town plus Peñol Rock.
Hello beautiful! This looks like a great getaway to spend a day at. I think of all the Colombian places you have shared, this might be the one that appears to be the perfect destination to appreciate this place. You look great btw and well rested now! 🤍💙💚
It seems you had a fabulous trip in Guatape!!! And I am so glad you have been continuing a fantastic journey in South America:) Have a safe trip and hope you will be happy forever😁
There are a ton of things to do in Guatapé but some of the most popular include climbing the El Penol rock, going on a boat tour, wandering the town, and visiting waterfalls and natural swimming holes!
I'm from Medellín and I really enjoyed seeing you enjoy our culture, I recommend you other little town similar to Guatape, Jardin for example, or maybe all east of Antioquía. La ceja, el retiro, Carmen de vivoral. A hug and welcome.
Glad you made it to Guatapè. It is a beautiful place. I also went on a tour which is a great way to see it. Part of my tour was by boat on the lake where we saw the old center of the city of El Peñol with a cross sticking up in the water. We also saw several houses including Pablo Escobar’s burn out house. At the rock they did not have a no drone rule then so I was able to fly it. I made sure it was ok with the tour guide. He said yes and suggested I take it to the top of the rock and fly from there. Once up there I decided not to because of all the wiring up there so I flew it when I came back back down. While aligning the gyros I was surprised with the interference but eventually got everything aligned and flew it from the parking lot. It was great. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
Windows showed me a dramatic series of interlocked lakes as the background a few days ago - I blew everyone's minds at work by immediately recognising it as Guatapé... Thanks to this video 😊
Beautiful video, thanks Aline for coming my state Antioquia, Capital Medellin, the city have opened your Doors, for all people that want visiting, thanks Aline
I visited la grande piedra back in 1974 with a friend. The staircase was much more simple and there was not a man-made lake below. An older woman had a shack at the top and sold rum and coke and souveniers. I still have the plastic viewer with a photo of the rock. I am glad you were able to see this yourself! Felicidades from Jon Sachs!
Hi Alina, looking forward to new videos from Brazil, was just binging on your last couple of videos I missed, great as usual. Greetings, Marija from Macedonia
What a wonderful showing you experienced here, Alina! Really brought back some wonderful memories for me as I grew up living on the waterfront being a member of a professional water skiing team in my teen years. Such a wonderful town that was, so colorful and SAFE which is a great memory you created for a lot of people also. The music you chose is great, the people you were around said many things that I'm sure you also felt. Thanks so much for going there and sharing this with us. You hit the button for us, and yes I would love to go there for a trip down memory lane for me. Looking forward to another great video you always present to us, and glad you got to take us along. Keep smiling, and never forget what doors got closed for you there, there was a miracle that was superb to experience. Cheers!! 💗🏆👍
I've been at Guatapé once, and it's a really nice place. I don't have any suggestions regarding Guatapé, just explore and enjoy, but, as other people have said in the comments, if you come back to Colombia I strongly suggest to visit little towns all around. For example, Ciénaga, which is between Santa Marta and Barranquilla, La Playa de Belén in Norte de Santander (with the amazing Estoraques), Salento and Cocora Valley, Barichara in Santander, Villa de Leyva and Ráquira in Boyacá, Honda in Tolima, or Guatavita (another flooded town, but much colder than El Peñol) and its lagoon, which are near Bogotá.
Alina, this was very good choice. Harriet and I have been. We enjoyed climbing The Rock. Surrounding the lake there were so many places to just chill out. We did that as well as walk along Guatape Centre decorated with Zocalos. We spent a couple of days going back and forth from Medeliin. Great memories of the area. Thank you so much for taking us along😍😍 Be well. Stay Safe. Sending you lots of love💖💖 Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.
I'm from Medellín and I really enjoyed seeing you enjoy our culture, I recommend you other little town similar to Guatape, Jardin for example, or maybe all east of Antioquía. La ceja, el retiro, Carmen de vivoral. A hug and welcome to our department.
fun fact. *FIRST:* previously the ascent to the Peñol stone was by wooden stairs and without handrails or railings, (something that must have been extremely terrifying and chilling for its ascent), and *SECOND:* only in Colombia a jewel of nature like that stone has private owners, which is totally unusual, ridiculous and unfair since the stone is a natural wonder and should not have an owner, it should be a public and national asset.
Hi Alina! Stunning and awesome scenery and nature!!! The work of climbing provides big bonus views at the summit. Thanks for sharing Guatape! Keep safe, Alina!
I like a lot that you enjoyed my dear Colombia. Ironically I been from Colombia I haven't visited Guatapé, I will have to do as a photographer 🥺🥺. Saludos desde Bogotá.
Hahaha there is no such thing as "very safe" in Colombia. But I'm happy to see you are again enjoying this beautiful country. Come to Bogota and I'll show you around 🙃
Wow Alina ,this video is superb I really like it. This video is nearly to perfection not mentioning how good your camerawork is. Will be waiting for your next video. Till then take care.❤️
I'm so happy you could visit Guatapé! I strongly recommend Cocora Valley and Barichara but if you're out of time, then maybe next time. I'm Colombian and I've never been there hahaha (sad) I'm in Japan now, I hope to go back the next year. I send you and enormous hug! Y tu pronunciación en español es muy buena! 🤗
Super cute town!! I would love to revisit Colombia and check out this town! Reminds me of a place called Finlandia that I went too. Good memories and OMG I love those lil cookies with the drinks haha .. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
Wow..thanks for taking us along with you in guatape.its really beautiful i love it and Yes..we only live once..so,why not..let's be our own kind of thing.

Amazing place and amazing you! I really enjoy how you put so much effort to give us an amazing video which includes so amazing views, your videos are amazing!!!
Amazing! You shoulg try Santander. It's amazing, beautiful and cheap... Colonial small towns, wonderful views and food. Barichara it's a remarkable town to visit, along with Velez, San Gil, Curití... All need to do is arrive to Bucaramanga city, the capital
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️, Wow 🤩, Thanks Alina, That is li,e Awesomeness, 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰, I’ll give you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️five stars for drone footage, 💎, Stay Safe, God Bless, Belus FAM
Alina, Once again, a very nice piece of work. Hope you are enjoying Rio; any initial comparison of the city to the Colombian cities you have recently been in? Thanks. Steve
Alina....You´ve just chosen one of the must-see places near Medellin...Guatape is located in the so-called "near East" region of the Antioquia province...

The Lake Town of Guatape in Colombia is very exotic, Alina!❤️❤️❤️❤️
It looks like an amazing area. I hope to visit during my next trip. ❤️🙏🇨🇦
Villa de Leyva y raquira Boyacá, Colombia son excelentes 👍
boyacá es muy feo, mejor no
Y la sierra nevada del cocuy
@@LeonardoTH-cam8 viví en Tunja y es muy feo, la comida horrible
Thanks for finding another place I’ve never heard of. Looks like a wonderful place to visit.
You are your own kind of beautiful person! Guatape is Lovely and colorful! Muy lindo❤🤗❤

Wow it's really really nice there. The town is very quaint and colorful and the "Rock" is simply amazing. Really enjoyed this video Alina!
What a beautiful place! It was really a surprise to see this wonderful lake. Indeed I didn't know the existence of it. Great video, thank you
Very resourceful to find the stock footage. That view is so beautiful! Looks like a really fun day trip!
Windows showed me a dramatic series of interlocked lakes as the background a few days ago - I blew everyone's minds at work by immediately recognising it as Guatapé... Thanks to this video 😊
UUUyyy A very beautiful country in many aspects. interesting to visit

I've seen Guatape on my computer's screen saver, much nicer to have you escort us around this beautiful location :)
haha yeah I didn't realize until after I went that it was the same place that sometimes shows on Windows 10

Steve
Alina....You´ve just chosen one of the must-see places near Medellin...Guatape is located in the so-called "near East" region of the Antioquia province...
I had a vision. A glass elevator on the flat side and a waterslide to go down all the way to the lake.
woww! very nice place
Watape looks like encanto town 😍
I love watching your videos, especially this one on Guatape. Beautiful views and very well narrated. Definitely detect the Canadian accent (eh!).
You should visit Jardín. It's a beautiful place and it's close from Medellín
Wow...Very wonderful 👍👍👍
👍👍👍 Beautiful country and interesting vlog.
Hi, Alina. Very nice.
Hope you can come back and visit another attractions from Colombia. Like El parque del café en Quindío. El desierto de la tatacoha, caño cristAles.
Hello Alina
You have to visit the Cocora valley wich inspired Disney s encanto
Muchas gracias pelo video.
Amazing lake, looks like you could easily get lost amongst all the islands and inlets if you took a boat out.
