Would definitely do it again. - Booked a very last minute tour and they were very accommodating . I was mostly interested in the Griselda Blanco sites so Daniel the tour guide was able to tweak the tour a bit to visit some of the places relevant to the Griselda Blanco story. Daniel was very informative and definitely knew the history very well.

An excellent Pablo Escobar tour with our guide, Daniel - Daniel provided an excellent tour for our group. He had a profound knowledge of the history of Medellin as it relates to Pablo Escobar. There were 4 stops and all of them were fascinating and great picture spots. Daniel was down to earth and highly relatable and made us feel apart of the culture. He even gave us time to have authentic Columbia cuisine in the Pablo Escobar neighborhood. Would recommend 100% thank you!!

Great experience, don’t think to much, do it - we did a tour with Joe. he was great he show us the different places of Pablo Escobar history, he had a lot knowledge. We know now and see things the tv and shows don’t show you. I don’t regret it. And a bonus he speak both our language Spanish and English so was really great.
