Excellent private tour with Feliciano - Excellent tour wirh very knowledgeable guide Feliciano who was very flexible abd gave us some extra time wheneve we needed it in our tour. He explained us in lots of details the touristic sites and could answer our questions. I preferred this tour because it was privately done obly for the two of us (boat tour was with a group but there is a private option if you require it). All in all a very very nice experience on our 2 day stay in Medellin!
