Excellent walk. - Wonderful tour with David who talked a lot about the history of the City and led us to the main points we would like to know. The walk was fun and quiet, very good.

Highly recommended tour, credible guide - Daniel is incredibly knowledgeable and credible. He shared some very interesting facts with us and answered our questions really well also. He's very passionate about Medellín and enjoys his work. He was punctual picking us up and flexible when we needed a change of itinerary due to our baby. We were in very good hands, thank you, Daniel!

Wonderful! - Awesome tour! Joe was a wonderful tour guide and taught us a lot about the history of Medellin in a non-biased opinion. Would definitely do again.

Not to be missed! - A very interesting experience to hear the real side of how things were and not the dramatised version you see on Netflix. We were lucky to have Joe as our tour guide. He was full of energy, enthusiasm and passion about his proud country’s history and spoke from the heart. We were lucky to have him as our guide for this not to be missed half day tour!

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.
