Lots of art & walking - Touring Comuna13 was a great experience. I didn’t realize how big the neighborhood was so there was more walking than expected but lots of beautiful art and sights to take in. There was a dance performance, multiple vendors, and restaurants in the area. Highly recommend!

More than excellent!!!! - From arrival we were received in a very good way! The guide is from the area and has great service and knowledge of history and place! Farley made it super enjoyable and we loved the way he spoke and expressed what for them was a time of pain and now they have changed in the evolution of what is Commune 13. Very grateful to SAG Tour for such good service! And to Farley thank you for sharing your experiences!!

A walk to art - This tour was a great way to see amazing views of the mountains and tons of artwork. I did a tour with 3 family members. Our guide (forgot her name, she was from Venezuela) was kind, knowledgeable, and was easy to understand. The tour includes a bit of walking but we enjoyed it overall.

The best tour of the Comuna! - Bryan was the best tour guide! We took our time throughout the Comuna 13 and he was very knowledgeable about the history, including how it also impacted him and his family/friends. I would definitely go back again. So many things to see in so little time! Beautiful tour, and the ice cream is a must try.
