Thanks to previous travel bloggers for paving the way and giving us direction for our own trip. Taking into account the previously-shared knowledge, here was our experience: - Took the metro from El Poblado to Caribe and walked across to the gangway to the bus terminal. - Found ticket booth #14 for buses to Guatape with a bus company is called “Sotrasanvicente & Guatape La Piedra”. - We could only buy one-way tickets there and they cost $15,000 each. I believe buses leave every hour and we only waited 15 minutes. - The bus trip took two hours since it was constantly picking up and dropping off travellers, entertainers and vendors of snacks. - Listened for the call for La Piedra and got off the bus then walked up the stairs for 10-15 minutes to the touristy area. - Paid $18,000 to walk up 700 more steps to the incredible lookout, then paid $4000 to take a shared Jeep-like taxi to the town of Guatape. - We had lunch at a locals’ restaurant by the lake for only $23,000 for two people! - Bought a return ticket for $15,000 and saw people buying them right before the bus left so there’s no rush, but don’t wait too long (return schedule is attached). We decided to pass on a tour from Medellin since they were more expensive, left at 7:30 am, and the one we wanted was sold out the night before our final day in Medellín. Here are our total costs per person: $5,100 metro round trip $15,000 bus $18,000 La Piedra lookout $4,000 taxi to Guatape $12,000 lunch $4,000 street dessert $15,000 bus = $55,100 for a lovely day trip!

Some good snorkelling from the beach, saw a baby ray and a barracuda + lots of tropical fishies. We hiked out to Morgan's head but access to the water is quite limited when you arrive there.
