The best walking tour we've done in Colombia. Juan was an amazing guide, really interesting stories and explained Medellín really well.

Thank you Hernan! You were the best guide of any walking tour I've done in all of South America. And I did a lot of them! Highly recommended experience. Vast knowledge and awesome storytelling.

I don’t have the words to describe how much we loved this tour. Dio was so passionate in teaching us about Medellín. I appreciated his honesty and transparency about the history and current climate of the city & country. There were moments where I got emotional seeing the love and pain he had for his city. We spent 10 days in Colombia and this tour tied for first as our most favorite activity we did, truly thanks to Dio! 10/10 highly recommend this tour, don’t even waste your time anywhere else!

Pablo was a very energetic and engaging tour guide. We did the downtown tour which was a good way to learn about the area and understand what the monuments mean. He’s very passionate and was lovely chatting with him during the break.

Great experience on the walking tour. Our guide Pablo was very knowledgable and passionate. He was very clear, learnt all our names from the start and made it a fun experience. We also appreciated learning about the city from someone who grew up there. We have attended many walking tours throughout Latin America and this was the best.

Passeio bem legal. Dá pra ver muita coisa e aprender bastante sobre a história de Medellin.
