I loved my tour guide Ms. Erica& Comuna 13!!! - I loved Comuna 13 and loved our guide, Ms. Erica even more! She was so knowledgeable about the area and super sweet and kind. She gave us the history of each picture and the symbolism. I will definitely book tour services with her again when I come back for a visit.

Erika was an amazing tour guide! - The cable car/ Comuna 13 tour was amazing, leading the history seeing the culture! Our tour lady Erika was phenomenal. She provided us with the history of Medellín, showed us pictures and explained every point stop until we reach the top. We were a group of 5 so to have someone like Erika who not only came prepared for the rain and provided water. She also took that time to learn each and every one of our personalities! We loved having her apart of our group so much we booked our last tour (Atv/ Pablo Escobar tour) just because it was her. Wish we could have done more… thank you Erika for making our trip not only memorable but unforgettable 🫶🏽 Skeeter🤣(insider)

Great small tour, strong recommend - Laura was great. She picked us up from our hotel and navigated the city traffic expertly. The market tasting was great, we’d done one in Bogota too but didn’t feel there was too much of an overlap, it was amazing seeing all the massive avocados! Her knowledge and experience of Cummins 13 was excellent, we’d done were so glad were were in a small group, as it does feel a bit touristy but with her we felt low key and more able to observe than be observed. She had great knowledge of the art and history of the area and we had a ferry style rap form for us which was really fun. Going on the cable car was great, such an interesting innovation for the city. Laura was receptive and patient and I can 100% recommend

Exceptional tour. A Must Do. - Laura was a fantastic guide. Very engaging, personable and informative. The experience was first class. A must do if you visit Medellín. Having a private guide to give you the history and insights was worth very penny. The fruit tasting and cable car rides were enjoyable as well.

Memories made! - Erika was a total gem! She catered the content and the pace beautifully for our three young kids - everyone felt like they learned and experienced so much. And we were grateful for the ease of it all, especially with an air conditioned car on a hot day.

highly recommend tour with Esteban! - We had an incredible tour with Esoban! He was an amazing guide—knowledgeable, fun, and made the experience truly memorable. He took us to Comuna 13, where we got to explore the vibrant art and shopping district, as well as visit a local fruit market, which was an absolute treat. The flavors were incredible! The cable car ride was another highlight, offering stunning views and a unique perspective of the area. Esoban’s insights and storytelling really brought everything to life, making the tour even more special. We absolutely loved him as a guide and highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun and informative experience!
