CANYONING in Colombia
Heli Jump
We created one of the most thrilling, adrenaline-packed helicopter tours in the world, the Heli Jump. This used to be a Medellín to Guatapé helicopter tour where you end up jumping into the lake from a flying helicopter. However, we were ordered by the authorities to cease the activity due to noise restrictions, but we redesigned a new and even more awesome HeliJump!
We are leaving the Guatapé HeliJump page up so you can see all the fun and pictures, but our new HeliJump tour is about jumping into a secluded jungle canyon river to waiting rafts, then continuing with Class III/IV white water rafting! All the info here.
NO LONGER OPERATING IN GUATAPÉ. CHECKOUT OUR NEW HELIJUMP/WHITEWATER RAFTING BUNDLE HERE
Amazing views of the Metro Area of Medellín and all ten municipalities
Then towering mountains, cloud forests, rivers, and the lake of Guatapé
We start the day with a morning pick-up at your place of residence. We then head to the local Olaya Herrera airport located in the heart of Medellín to the helicopter hangar. Here we will do a technical and safety briefing on the proceedings of the day including drills on how to properly enter and exit the helicopter.
There is a whole team of people behind a whole lot of gear involved in the Heli-Jump. There are helicopters, speedboats, jet skis, drones, GoPros, telephoto cameras, radios, and 4×4 SUVs all working like clockwork to carry out this adrenaline-packed adventure helicopter tour in Guatapé lake while the majestic Rock of El Peñol and the beautiful Colombian mountains serve as a backdrop to all the excitement!
The maximum number of people in each helicopter is 4. We have 3 helicopters allowing us to do 12 people simultaneously!
There are more ways than one to going around doing the Heli-Jump. The basic run is the tour starting from Medellín, buzzing the rock, jumping, and then hopping back onto the helicopter to return to the city.
The per group (up to 4 pax) cost basic run (without jetskis or other customizations) is 7,300,000 COP.
There's other activities you can bundle into the day ... ... like jumping into the water to awaiting jetskis or wakeboard ...
… or go ATVing through the forests, or hang gliding … there are many possibilities on this helicopter tour in Medellín! Including staying for a ground tour of Guatapé, the rock of El Peñol, and the town to furthermore return by ground transportation to Medellín.
On the other hand, the helicopter can wait for a return flight to Medellín from Guatapé so you don’t have to do the one hour forty-five minute drive back.
Lunch is fine dining at the fancy Luxe hotel restaurant overlooking the lake.
