Great tour, highly recommend. - We did this tour with Diego and it was really great. We learned so much about Comuna 13. Diego was really informative and very polite. He even brought us to his aunt's restaurant where we had some typical Colombian snacks, another place for coffee, and of course the ice-cream. I would highly recommend this tour.

Resilience and Rhythm in Comuna 13 - A powerful and moving experience. Walking through the streets of Comuna 13, surrounded by vibrant murals and music, revealed a story of transformation, creativity, and community strength. The guide offered essential context that brought meaning to every stop—what could have been just sightseeing became something far more profound. An unforgettable glimpse into the spirit of Medellín.

Beautiful scenery and interesting history! - Diego was our tour guide and we had an amazing time with him! He taught us all the history of comuna 13 and showed us all the beautiful art that came from it. The graffiti looks beautiful but once you know the history it brings an entirely different perspective! We also had some delicious snacks at his aunts restaurant! This was a very enjoyable day!
