Great Time - It’s a great tour to learn not only about Pablo Escobar, but the city of Medellín as well. Our host was very informative and also very open minded. All our questions were answered and different theories discussed in a positive way. We never felt rushed and had a great time!

What better than to do the tour with a country that knows Medellin like the back of your hand! - What better than to do the tour with a country that knows Medellin like the back of your hand!
Mauritius took us to Commune 13 on a tour with historical perspective, which made us reflect on the resilient spirit of its people.
Then, we continue with Pablo Escobar’s tour. Mauritius’ critical look allowed us to understand the depth of a subject that left a deep wound in Medellin. We met several of the corners where his story unfolded.
That’s not all: every part of the way, our guide was telling us curiosities and customs from every corner of the city.
We are very happy to have contracted the tour with Mauricio as we learned and got to know a lot.

10/10 tour! - Amazing tour! Mauricio was a great guide and very informative of Escobars history without glorifying it. The cable car and walk round Comuna 13 was also great! We never felt rushed by Mauricio and he allowed us to enjoy the experience at the perfect pace and allowed us to spend as much time as we wanted at the various stops on our tour. Would HIGHLY recommend anyone to do this tour if they want to see Comuna 13 or gain a greater understanding of the Escobar history from a local. 10/10 experience and definitely worth the money.
