Agencia Cueva del Esplendor

Visiting Cueva del Esplendor was an unforgettable experience. Our tour guide, Yadi, was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and full of energy, which made the journey even more enjoyable. The drive up the mountain offered breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, and the hike itself was not too strenuous, making it accessible for most travelers. The highlight, of course, was the waterfall. Seeing the water cascade through the cave opening was truly impressive and worth every step to get there. A perfect mix of adventure and natural beauty. Highly recommend this tour if you’re in Jardín

My partner and I visited this Tourism Agency last August 11, 2025, as part of our travel vacation to Medellin. Our principal interest was to assist El Festival de la Flores, but we took the opportunity to visit one of the most beautiful towns in Antioquia, El Jardin. We planned an excursion to the Cave of Splendor with this agency. Our guide, Paula, was excellent. The first part of the tour is approximately 11 km by jeep for 40 minutes. We then begin a 1 km hike (20 minutes) and arrive at a small house where we are offered refreshments before beginning a 500-meter descent along a trail that crosses a native forest with steep slopes. We cross the river and then arrive at the cave! Spectacular! Those who wish can take a dip or explore the reserve; finally, we return.

Very good tour, the location is beautiful and very unique scenery watching the waterfall through the cave. The water is very cold but getting in was worth it. The snacks you get from the agency are more than enough for the day

Beautiful place with splendid view. Good coffee and juices. Also some good small food.

I had such a great experience visiting Cueva del Esplendor! Our tour guide, Paula, was wonderful — so nice and knowledgeable. David, our driver, was also very kind and drove with great care. Highly recommend this tour!

The mark is to the agency: I truly enjoyed the way the guides and driver worked on the tour. The cave itself is sorta a tourist trap for me: yeah, it’s nice but is it really worth the time and effort?! For example, in Europe there are more beautiful and more acceptable places like this)

Great hike to a unique waterfall, swimming hole and cave all-in-one. My advice is to wear bug repellent, wear proper footwear for climbing up and down wet rocks and avoid this hike if you are not fit, sure-footed and able to walk without assistance (for example young children and the elderly). Overall a great experience.

The agency is very punctual and organized. They give you water and a bocadillo (guava base sweet) before you depart to the location. Once you arrive to the destination you have to hike a little bit to make it to house in which they receive you with one arepa de chocolo, aguapanela (local drink) and one empanada. After you eat they give you time to use the toilet or take a few pictures before you start the hike. This is a very fun activity with beautiful scenery, the only warning is If you are not in a good physical condition this hike is not for you. The ride in the jeep is very interesting and unique, you do have to ride in open road so get your butt ready for a bumpy ride. Everything is an experience to remember.
