Outstanding Tour - Our tour was outstanding. Juan took my wife and I all over Medellin. He gave us a very thorough Pablo Escobar tour and knew all the ins and outs of Comuna 13. He was a top notch tour guide. I highly recommend the tour!

Best Tour Experience - We had the greatest tour experience with Daniel as our guide. It felt like we really got to see the heart of Medellín and a glimpse into its past as well as share in its hopes and dreams of the future. I haven't enjoyed a tour as much as this one since I first started taking them. It's definitely an experience you can't get just by visiting alone to Comuna 13 and Medellin's memorial.

A day not to be missed... - Cesar was an exceptional guide on all levels - punctual, fluent English, generous with his time and extremely knowledgeable. We booked this tour based on previous good reviews and were beyond delighted. Cesar has extensive knowledge of Medellin and its evolution from the terror of the 1980's to its reinvention through education and art today. He has the ear of the Medellin locals and is actively involved in the rejunivation of the city, particularly with its youth. This is not a tour to be missed with an excellent guide to get beneath the superficial and understand the real Medellin.

Fascinating and fun Medellin tour! - Daniel was a fantastic tour guide!! We learned so much about the history of Medellin, the impact of Pablo Escobar and the various perceptions of local people on those topics. He allowed us our time to explore comuna 13 and was very informative about the neighborhood and it’s complexities. Thanks again Daniel!!
