This unique tour is designed for enthusiasts and those particularly interested in the history of Escobar and the Medellin Cartel. It takes visitors to locations that are distinct from those on other Escobar tours.

The focus is primarily on Escobar’s early criminal activities, his victims, and his demise.

Instead, it aims to understand the causes, context, and consequences of these events. Participants are encouraged to analyze history and reflect on drug trafficking, violence, and corruption in Colombia. The tour employs an independent journalistic approach, free from media bias, censorship by authorities, or the specific interests of those close to Escobar.
