This was a great experience, in which all the members of my group thoroughly enjoyed themselves.It started out with a simple whatsapp message to the number provided by the Ecoventure website. From there, the coordinator will provide you with all the information you'll need in order to plan your adventure. My review begins here, the coordinator was very accommodating and was able to program our excursion despite us being a small group of just 3 people. She also coordinated the transportation to pick us up directly from our apartment and bring us to and from the excursion meeting point.In our case, the transportation was punctual, and was accommodating to the fact that the entire group wasn't 100% ready to go at the appointed time. Once we reached the meeting point, we were greeted by the Ecoventure team, then introduced to the other small groups who were to join us on our excursion.The meeting point was a restaurant from which we were given a traditional Antioquenian breakfast of scrambled eggs, arepa de chocolo, and quesito. From there, we all loaded up into a jeep and headed towards a small town called San Francisco. The ride is around an hour long, and it's journey up a mountain towards a small schoolground. That small schoolground is where the hike begins!Fast forward through the hike, the rafting, the lunch, more rafting, waterfall, and more rafting. We all can gladly conclude that this was a day well spent.

Wow what an incredible experience! We enjoyed every minute of our excursion - from floating down the river to seeing monkeys in the trees to overcoming the 4/5 rapids! Unforgettable and can’t wait to do it again!
