Great and inspiring tour! - This tour was awesome, and a great way to start off our trip. Our guide was Andres, and he was amazing. He is so knowledgeable about the area and we learned so much about the history of Medellin. The transformation is truly inspiring, and we came away with a much deeper appreciation of the area. We were also glad to have a private tour, since the area gets quite busy, and it was much easier to navigate with only three people instead of in a bigger group. I would highly recommend booking this tour!

Excellent private tour - Danny was a wonderful tour guide. We are a family of four and we all loved spending the day with him. His English is amazing and he beautifully explained medellin’s complicated history. He emailed immediately upon making the reservation and promptly picked us up at 9am. He shared his own experiences from his childhood as well as the current situation in Medellín. It was fun exploring Comuna 13, the graffiti, dancing and music was exciting. Danny also helped us make tickets for the Independente Futbol game which was so helpful.

Great Experience - Juan was an excellent tour guide - very knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to anything we needed. He took us to all the major sites, was able to answer our many questions, and followed our lead in what we wanted to see and do. He even let us stop for an hour-long breakfast before getting started at a great restaurant! Thank you Juan ☺️

Detailed local tour and private guided experience - Very good and customizable tour with Daniel our local guide. Our guide did a great job explaining the area, helping explain the backstory and history (particularly to be 11 year old) and showing us a lot of commonly seen and unseen parts of Community 13.

Tour was not up to Viator standards - Danny was generous with his time. He was very engaging and his English is excellent. Danny did not share history with depth. Very disappointed with the lack of detail. Wanted to sit, have coffee, but we left with little knowledge and understanding of this rich history.
