Reynel el guía, tiene una forma muy linda de acompañar el recorrido y hacerlo divertido, incluso en los tramos más desafiantes. Nos enseñó mucho sobre la zona y su historia, lo que hizo el camino más interesante. Los alojamientos fueron muy lindos, con un ambiente familiar y cálido donde pudimos descansar muy bien. La comida riquísima, y las vistas de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta espectaculares. Disfruté muchísimo esta experiencia y, sin dudas, la volvería a hacer. 💚Publicado en GoogleTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Trekking through the Sierra Nevada with our guides Reynel & David was the true highlight of our month trip to Colombia in April 2025. We were recommended this private tour by our accommodation host in Taganga. We were looking for an authentic experience to immersive ourselves in the nature & local history of this area and we were not disappointed. Reynel was an incredible guide who was born and grew up in these mountain ranges. He was genuine, knowledgeable, kind, caring and funny. He has a deep respect for building honest relationships with the local indigenous communities to build a bridge between their knowledge & wisdom with his so that travellers such as us and be welcomed and learn from this ancestral practices and communities. Reynel wishes to protect and preserve the stunning beauty of these lands and ensure the ecological environment remains healthy and abundant. We were welcomed into 3 of Reynels family homes during the trip and fed epic meals with freshly grown ingredients on their family farms. The views and daily walks were adventurous and breathtaking. We learnt so much about the local plants, trees, wildlife and indigenous history as well as the political landscape of Colombia. David our interpreter became a good friend of us over the 4 days who we have continued to stay connected to. He’s a young passionate guide and interpreter who shared his epic energy and knowledge with us over our adventure. He’s was deeply caring, loving, authentic and intelligent. We shared many deep conversations during our time together and laughed everyday. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area over the typical 4 day lost city tour that most tourists book. It about the same price but worth so much more in what you will receive. Thank you Reynel & David. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻Publicado en GoogleTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google.

Super recommended 👌🤗Publicado en TripadvisorVerificada Tour rio bonda espectacular! Excelente todo! Muy profesionales los guías, pendientes del grupo, la comida deliciosa y ni hablar de los lugares visitados. 100% recomendado! Volvería muchas veces!! El plan es único!Publicado en TripadvisorVerificada A strenuous but worthwhile experience I did the four day/three night walking tour of Valle de Ñymejan in February 2020. I was a bit uncertain at first as this is obviously a relatively new and unknown option; Santa Marta is chock full of tour operators offering beach tours and treks to the Lost City, but this was something different and I couldn't find much information about it on the internet or in my guide book.I was travelling alone and I had hoped the company would be able to assemble a group for me to go with. In the end although there was supposed to be one other guy going on the tour with me, he dropped out at the last minute and so I ended up doing the tour alone (i.e. just me and a guide). I wasn't charged any extra for this and while at first I was a bit nervous, it worked out well.I was taken out by taxi to the edge of Santa Marta to meet the guide, who then took me on the back of his motorcycle to where we started walking. I hadn't expected to be going on the bike but it was quite fun really once I got used to it. I guess this was a side-effect of the tour being just me and the guide and alternative transport would have been arranged if there'd been more people.The difficulty of the walking varied; I found one or two days pretty strenuous, but with a moderate amount of willpower it wasn't too bad. I'm not super fit but not a couch potato either. I didn't do the Lost City trek so I can't compare the difficulty to that. On the whole I'd say it was challenging enough that I felt pleased with myself for managing it, without being so hard I felt I'd bitten off more than I could chew. The guide was obviously incredibly fit and although I tried not to ask for extra rest stops as much as possible, I did have to on occasion. I did get mildly sick on the last night of the tour - possibly dehydration, I had plenty of water with me but I was worried I'd run out and so perhaps didn't drink as much as I should have while walking - and that made the last day a bit more of an exercise in willpower, but I don't think this was anything except bad luck.Although I sometimes felt too tired to truly appreciate it while we were walking, some of the scenery was absolutely amazing.The accommodation was fairly basic but comfortable on all three nights, and - bearing in mind I have pretty plain tastes in food anyway - I was pleasantly surprised by the meals provided. This is a family-run tour, a lot of the walking takes place across their own land and each of the hostels is operated by family members. They were all very accommodating and I was glad to have the opportunity to practice my Spanish talking with them each evening. (My guide did not speak English, but I am told English-speaking guides are available.)This is a real off-the-grid experience; I didn't expect to have mobile reception or any access to wifi during the tour, and I didn't. I can live without the internet but it was a little disconcerting to feel I couldn't exchange "I'm OK, are you OK?" messages with my family back home. I had a Colombian Movistar SIM in my phone and I never had any signal; the guide had a Claro SIM in his and he did occasionally have reception. So in hindsight it would have been good if I had had a Claro SIM, then I might at least have been able to keep in basic contact with my family and that would have made me feel more relaxed. (I did leave the company's contact details with my family and probably in a real emergency they would have been able to get a message to me through the guide, but I don't think there would have been any guarantees.)I don't know if the business will have been affected by the recent coronavirus pandemic, but if it hasn't I would highly recommend the tour. The one low spot for me came when I was trying to book, as the price I'd been shown earlier was apparently incorrect and that caused some friction, though we got it sorted out in the end. I'd suggest asking to make sure the price you're initially quoted is correct and then there won't be any unpleasantness when you come to book. Other than that, everything was handled smoothly and with no problems and I felt I was in safe hands.Publicado en TripadvisorVerificada Paseo Excelente servicio la recomiendo por su gran capacidad para brindar un buen entrenamiento alos turistasPublicado en TripadvisorVerificada Día de pesca en el tairona Excelente amigo sargento javier próximamente lo repetimos con las amigos firme su atención y me quedo debiendo la hamburguesa jejejejejejPublicado en TripadvisorVerificada La aventura de mi vida La vida es una aventura pero sólo cuando te das cuenta de ella comienzas a vivir de verdad y con la fascinación que gracias al Ñymejan descubrí. Me hizo renacer y conocer lo que es realmente vivir cuando se trata de disfrutar cada momento y cada placer que cada día en la montaña de las vivencias nos ofrece y para mí las montañas del Ñymejan son la mejor representación e inspiración para expresar ello.Debo decir que no sólo quiero volver sino que volvere porque aún después de muerto mi espíritu buscará ese lugar lleno de tal espiritualidad que me permitirá renacer pero esta vez para vivir por siempre en el Ñymejan.Publicado en TripadvisorVerificada Unforgettable This trip was one of the best experiences in my life.
