Excellent tour and unique service... - As Travel Agents we wanted to live the experience of doing the Private Tour of Medellin, and it is really worth it from the start! Our guide Andres from the arrival at the Hotel was helpful, attentive, friendly and knowledgeable; with a modern Vehicle clean and with a very safe driving. It took us to make the tour in a very attentive way, I make a tour of Botero Square, which during the journey on the way showed us important buildings of Medellin, history and current life combine between a brief account of the past and current technology. The visit to Pueblito Paisa genial , La comuna 13 and as I knew the place to walk around imaginable places, made us live the feeling as if we walked through those corridors and stands as locals, definitely our guide knows what he does and takes care, we accommodated the best hours not to miss any show of the commune. The trip by Metrocable made us know the unique metro culture of Medellin. Very happy with the treatment and coordination of the Viaja Medellin team. Thank you very much

Excellent Medellin Experience - Jorge went above and beyond our expectations. He was always very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the visit to the colorful and divers Comuna 13. We also enjoyed the Cerró Nutibsra and Pueblito Paisa. Finally we visited Parques del Rio at the Medellin River. I highly recommend Jorge Bohorquez for all those who plan to visit Medellin. I forgot to say Jorge's car was slick and span and he's an excellent driver.

Hector is the best tour guide! You must request him. - Hector is the guide for you! If you’re coming to Medellin. Requesting Hector is the only way to go. He was such a brilliant addition to our trip. He was prompt, communicative, incredibly knowledgeable, kind, funny and ensured we were always comfortable and safe. A sweet and very intelligent man with so much heart and love for his city. I will be giving his information to everyone I know that comes to Medellin. He was one of the best guides I’ve ever had - anywhere - and I’ve been to many, many places. Request Hector!
