The 72-Hour Medellín Bachelor Party: A Real Itinerary, Thursday to Sunday

Three nights is the most popular bachelor party length we plan, and it's the right one. Thursday, Friday and Saturday are the real nights in Medellín. Tuesday and Wednesday are quiet, and most groups waste half a short trip on them. Land Thursday, fly home Sunday, and you get all three.

This itinerary is built on a real trip we ran for a group of 15 guys, with two additions our groups ask for most: a welcome BBQ at the villa by our chef the moment you arrive, and a recovery morning before you fly home. In between: an ATV morning in the mountains, a private boat party on the Guatapé reservoir with a DJ and a chef on board, and a bilingual host with the group from the airport to the last night. Nobody in the group has to plan a thing. The groom just shows up.

Thursday: Touchdown

• Private airport pickup. Your driver and host meet the group at José María Córdova airport. We track every flight, so staggered arrivals are fine. The airport is about 45 minutes above the city. (Airport transfer details)
• Check in at the villa. For 15 guys, that was Casa Blanca: 14 bedrooms, a private pool, jacuzzi, BBQ area and billiard table, four minutes from Provenza. Everyone gets their own room.
• Welcome BBQ by our chef. The grill is already going when the group walks in. Our chef cooks a full BBQ at the house for the whole group. It's the best way to start: everyone arrives, drops the bags, and eats together by the pool before the weekend begins.
• Your host starts today. He lays out the weekend over dinner, takes requests, and stays one message away the whole trip.
• Night one. After the BBQ, Provenza is four minutes away if the group has energy. If not, the pool and the billiard table are right there. Saturday is the big one.

Friday: ATVs in the morning, Provenza at night

• Breakfast at the house. A private chef cooks for the whole group, so nobody has to herd 15 people into a restaurant before noon.
• ATV mountain tour. Two hours off-road through the countryside outside Medellín: mud, mountain trails and fast four-wheelers. Round-trip transport included. We always book this in the morning, before the heat and the traffic. (ATV tour)
• An open afternoon, on purpose. Pool, jacuzzi, billiards. Nobody should be running on empty before the weekend. If the group wants to fill it, your host can set up Comuna 13, a city tour, paintball or massages at the house.
• Friday night. Dinner reserved, then the city's top rooms, hosted door to door.

Saturday: The Guatapé boat party

This is the signature day, and we put it on Saturday whenever the dates allow.

• Private transport to Guatapé (about 1.5 hours) with a bilingual guide. A full day of 8 to 10 hours.
• Your own boat for three hours. A private pontoon on the reservoir, just your group between the islands.
• A DJ on board. A professional DJ with full equipment. Not a boat ride with a speaker, a party on the water.
• A chef on the boat. A BBQ grilled on board for the whole group, with El Peñol behind you.
• El Peñol and the town. An optional climb up the rock (740 steps, worth every one) and a walk through the most colorful town in Colombia. (Guatapé tour)
• Then Saturday night in Medellín. The best night of the week. Your host has the group in prime spots from dinner to last call.

Sunday: Recovery morning, then home

• IV therapy at the villa. A licensed medical team comes to the house with hydration drips after Saturday night. $130 per person.
• Massages by the pool. A team of licensed therapists sets up at the villa, so the whole group goes one after another. $130 per person. (In-villa massage)
• Recovery brunch. The chef cooks a big late breakfast for everyone.
• Late check-out where the villa allows, so nobody is rushing. The team handles the luggage.
• Private transfers to the airport, timed to each flight and staggered if they differ. Afternoon and evening flights work best with this plan.

Can the group stay one more night? Then Sunday becomes a full recovery day at the villa, and you fly home Monday rested.

What this trip cost

The full 72 hours, with the welcome BBQ and the recovery morning, comes to about $1,385 per guest for a group of 15 (about $1,435 per guest paying by card, which adds 3.5%). That covers:

• Casa Blanca for 3 nights (a 14-bedroom mansion in El Poblado)
• Round-trip private airport transfers
• A bilingual host with the group all 3 days
• A private driver on call, up to 8 hours a day
• Chef breakfast at the house every morning
• The ATV tour with transport
• The full Guatapé day: guide, private boat, DJ and a chef BBQ on board
• The welcome BBQ at the villa by our chef ($70 per person)
• The recovery morning: IV therapy ($130 per person) and a massage ($130 per person) at the villa

What a smaller group pays. A real trip we ran for 7 guys at Persa House, a 12-bedroom mansion above El Poblado with an infinity pool, came to about $1,448 per guest for three nights. That covered the villa, round-trip Sprinter airport transfers, a bilingual host for 3 days, a private Medellín city tour, a full adventure day at the Salto del Buey waterfall (hike, zipline and climbing) and the Sprinter with a driver for 8 hours. With fewer guys, the villa is split fewer ways, so the per-person price goes up. A smaller villa brings it back down.

Your price depends on group size, villa and dates. We confirm the exact price for your dates before anything is booked.

Not included: food and drinks at restaurants, bars and clubs, table and bottle service, entrance fees, tips and flights. Your host always confirms a cost before arranging anything.

Easy to add

Paragliding over the valley · a helicopter tour · Comuna 13 · a private chef dinner or pool party at the house · VIP tables · a photographer · a private bodyguard · an extra night.

How booking works

1. Tell us your dates and group size. We send a custom itinerary and invoice, usually the same day.
2. Lock it in. Confirm the plan and we reserve the villa and every service for your dates.
3. Land. Your driver and host meet you at the airport. Everything is already handled.

Peak dates (mid-December to early January, and long weekends) book out first. Villas for 12+ go months ahead.

FAQ

Is 72 hours enough for a bachelor party in Medellín? Yes, if you arrive Thursday and leave Sunday. You get all three real nights, a mountain adventure and the Guatapé boat day. If the group can stay one more night, Saturday into Sunday gives you a recovery day too.

How many people is this itinerary for? This version was for 15 guys. We run the same plan for groups of 6 to 30, with the villa and vehicles sized to the group. For a group of 7, see the smaller-group example above.

Can we change the days? Yes. The only rule we push back on: no ATVs the morning after the biggest night, and Guatapé works best on Saturday.

Is Medellín safe for a bachelor group? With a host, private transport door to door, and a villa close to Provenza, the group is never on the street looking for a taxi at 3 AM. A professional bodyguard can be added for the whole trip.

When should we book? Three to four months ahead for a big villa on a weekend. Six weeks can work outside peak season.
