Amazing local tour - I was the only one who signed up for the tour that day so I got a personal tour guide. Walter took me all over communa 13 with amazing history lessons. Learned about the gangs and the development of the neighborhood. Tried some great local food and drinks. He even taught me how to understand the $ better. Got some great photo opps. Rode the cable car and got some nice views from there. Walter had a great sense of humor and made me feel like I was I home. So welcoming and knowledgeable. Highly suggest.

Excellent Guide & Tour - Christian guided our tour through the metro, cable car, and Comuna 13. He was very informative, friendly, and just a generally good person to hang with for 4 hours. He was helpful with tips on places to get the best views, vendors with the best deals, and always kept the information and conversation going. I highly recommend booking a tour with this group.

Communa 13 tour with Christian - I did a tour with Christian and it was a great and informative experience. Being a first timer to Medellin, I wasn't familiar with the metro and metrocable systems, so it was cool to take those up and get amazing views of the city. I was part of a small tour, so it felt very personalized. We were able to stop at some shops and vendors during the tour and Christian helped me with translating.

BEST TOUR GUIDE OF ALL TIME - CAMILLO WAS FANTASTIC…I decided to take the Communa 13 tour and was graced the pleasure of having Camilo as my tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, and a wealth of information. He went above and beyond to ensure that all my needs were met and I had the best experience possible. My trip to Medilln would not have been the same otherwise. He spoke English and that was huge for me because I don’t know the language otherwise. There was absolutely no language barrier. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND if your visiting to take this tour and REQUEST CAMILLO IF YOU WANT AN AMAZING DAY EXPLORING THE BEAUTIFUL ARTISTIC CITY OF COMMUNA TRECE

Good - Good tour of the comuna 13 with Camilo who is very knowledgeable and insightful. The tour is the full 4.5-5hrs made worse by the guide taking the time to chat to each and every person he knew in the neighbourhood, including children etc, it was fine initially but as the tour went on this got annoying and time wasting. Even on the way back we had to wait on the train platform for him to finish having his conversation with a random person he knew.
