Standing at the base of El Peñol Rock is impressive — but lifting off in a private helicopter with your whole group is something you’ll never forget. The emerald-green lakes stretch out, the islands appear like jewels in the water, and Guatapé shows its most colorful side from above.
This private helicopter flight is designed for families, groups of friends, or anyone wanting to share the experience together. With space for up to 6 passengers, it combines the thrill of flight with the joy of doing it side by side.
