Daniel is an incredible narrator! He gives plenty of details and knows the places inside out, along with all the stories and anecdotes connected to the sites he shows us. I highly recommend him!
Dear Jennifer_A, Thank you very much, your comment is important to us. Great to know you highly recommend our services since guides are incredible narrators. Please let us assist again soon! Sincerely, Camilo Uribe Medellin City Services
Our Pablo Escobar tour was an interesting experience with an unexpected twist. Unfortunately, when we arrived at the Pablo prison, it was closed. We were told the Mayor came and closed it 20 minutes before we arrive which was disappointing. However, our guide Alex, handled the situation very well and made it up to us by taking us to an amazing local chicken spot -- one of the best meals we had on our trip! While we missed seeing the prison, the guide's effort and flexibility turned th day into a memorable one. We were still able to see the rooftop, graveyard and local neighborhood where his home was blown up.
Dear Kevin_W, Many thanks for the comment, it has been a pleasure to assist you around our beautiful Medellin. All our guides are experts when it comes to Medellin history. Please come back soon! Sincerely, Camilo Uribe Medellin City Services SAS
Joe is a fantastic Guide. My favorite thing about this tour was that there is rarely a “no”; if something looks like you can’t go inside or there might be a rope or closed door, Joe will gently open the door or take the rope off and you will be able to see what’s inside or go in! Meanwhile, you might see another tour group nearby looking a bit jealous and hear their guide making excuses because you were able to go inside and they didn’t. Joe is a fantastic guy and extremely knowledgeable and super nice. The car was very comfortable and everything was perfect. Highly recommend.

Daniel was an our English guide and he was extremely knowledgeable about Pablo Escobar - from dates, locations, associations of Pablo and much more.
This tour was awesome! David is not only a walking history book, but also a first-class entertainer. With humor, charm and exciting facts, he led us through Escobar’s crazy world – without glorifying, but with plenty of laughs. Whether it’s crass stories, secret corners or unexpected anecdotes – David always had something. In short: Whoever misses this tour misses the best. Thank you, David, you're a legend!
