It’s not a bad tour, just nothing was overly nice or exciting. We did the comuna 13 tour in the morning and that was much better and more worth the time and money.
Excellent experience! The knowledge of the guide Cesar was magnificent! You can see that he likes his job and I loved his language skills! Top our driver Noel too!
Cesar Noel in the afternoon and morning Jose and driver great team all really looks a team. We alpotge experience
Cesar and Noelle were awesome

Cesar and Noelle were great..
Great experience i saw how people transition through medellin
The experience 10/10 The guide César was super with the explanation on each trip (we coincided with the same guide on the days of activities). They explain everything in detail and also in English if someone in the group requires it, the transportation is on time and everything is super punctual, which benefits the tourist to make the most of the days of their stay. All the tours are magnificent (our favorite was Guatape), Comuna 13 has a great atmosphere, the combination of history and current events makes it super different and it is our second favorite place. The City Tour stop at Botero Plaza is beautiful, however, the tourism industry could ask the government for more security near the works of art so that we tourists can take the time to appreciate the art and take our photos (many pickpockets in the area). The Barefoot Park is beautiful, as is the Pueblito Paisa, and the meeting and arrival point (Poblado Park) is very safe; in short, 10/10 ❤️
Ceaser, and our Driver Noam, awesome job. My parents are in good shape for their ages. 75 and 80 and they loved the tour. It was at a pace they could do.
César guided us through the entire tour, traveling the city from north to south. The tour was conducted in two languages. Stops with enough time to get to know the different places that were visited.
