Great tour with the Eddie Murphy of Medellin!
We had a great tour with Joe, our super-streetwise guide. Loads of intriguing factoids about Medellin’s often grim and violent past. Real under the bonnet stuff. Engaging and entertaining. Thanks mate!

Great Story Teller
We were so fortunate to have Daniel. What a great story teller. He was absolutely fantastic and incredibly knowledgable. Probably because he used to work at the museum with Pablo's brother Roberto. Had a great time and it was much more than just Pablo Escobar, learnt so much about the country, politics and everything in between. Thanks Daniel!

An amazing personal tour and really enjoyed it. Our local guide was out of this world. His depth of knowledge, friendly service and going out of his way to further educate us on medellin. Stopped off out of tour, bought us drinks to keep cool. Can not recommend this tour and the company enough.
