The best tour guide ever! - Oscar was so knowledgeable and very friendly. He made the whole experience so interesting and fun! We strongly recommend Oscar to anyone coming to Medallin. His English was great and his sense of humour was even better! He answered everyone of our questions and was the best guide we had here during our time in Medallin! Thank you Oscar, you are simply the best!

Best fruit ever! - I chose to do this tour on the second day of my stay in Medellin and I was so grateful for this experience. Oscar was so friendly and knowledgeable, there was engaging conversation and he was so relatable. I enjoyed my private tour and it gave me better insight into the everyday lives of Colombians. Everyone we interacted with was so welcoming and helpful. Riding the train, the tram and the cable car helped me feel more comfortable traveling around Medellin alone. The fruits! I cannot say enough about the paradise of flavors I was able to taste. I would recommend this tour a million times over and Oscar also offers a multitude of other tours. You won't regret it.

This tour is a must - Simply put, AMAZING! If you come to Colombia you have got to get a tour with Oscar. We did a private tour and it was well worth it. After signing up Oscar was very communicative with the schedule of events and the meet up. He showed us all the interesting places and shared alot of information and insight about the city that you wouldn't find reading online etc. For me the highlight was the fruit market portion of the tour. Lots of new fruits to try and they were great. Overall 10/10! Kudos to Oscar for opening up medellin and allowing us to have a true feeling for the city.

Incredible Walking Tour w/ Oscar!! - During the tour, we learned about downtown Medellin & how it came to be what it is today; Colombian artists (e.g. Botero & Maluma) and their impact on Colombian culture; Colombian fruits & snacks, with taste tests of both; social stratuses of Colombia, which are ranked from one to six; and about different districts/neighborhoods of present-day Colombia. Oscar was highly informative of each topic of the tour and was able to answer all of my group’s questions of Medellin with detailed answers. Oscar also went out of his way to ensure we had the best experience possible by having alternate tour routes planned in case one was closed/inaccessible (which ended up happening)! I highly recommend.

Best city tour of Medellin with Oscar - Oscar was a great city guide. He took us through the best spots in the city. We took the tram and then the lift to the top of the hill. We tried local fruits -which were super tasty- at the Placita de Florez, then went to the museum, where he informed us about the history of the city and walked through nice neighborhoods and landmarks. Oscar was the best and I couldn’t be happier that we met him and went through the city with him. I would definitely suggest him as a tour guide. Totally worth it! 🙏🫶🏽

Highlight of our trip - This tour was the highlight of our trip to Medellin! I couldn’t recommend this tour enough. The guide Oscar a brilliant teacher and also very thoughtful and kind. Leaving the metro station an elderly lady was stuck on the escalators and Oscar immediately helped guide her down the stairs. During the tour we learnt many things about Colombian culture and history. The visit to the Museo de las Memorias was particularly poignant and the fruits in the market were incredibly delicious! We are definitely booking a tour with Oscar the next time we visit Medellin - hopefully very soon!
