Great Walkthrough of Communa 13 - Really enjoyed our time in communa 13. Our guide Luis (Lucho) was friendly, gave us great history of the neighborhood, and spoke excellent English. If you’re interested in spending more time in the neighborhood, it’s easy (and safe) to break off when the tour ends or they’ll guide you back to the shop where you meet. Would recommend this to anyone visiting Medellin!
