Recommendations on the best activities to do in Medellin
Nos tocó con la guía Luisa la verdad nos explicó muy bien y me gustó todo, aunque me hubiese gustado hacer una parada en algún lugar de souvenirs ya que hiba rápido y no daba mucho tiempo.
My wife and I really enjoyed this tour. It was a nice size group with a chance to meet the other travelers. Lina did a fantastic job communicating before, during and even after the tour. We really enjoyed learning about the history and dramatic transformation of Medellin and in particular Comuna 13. She did a great job of shepherding all of us through the metros, buses and cable cars. I would highly recommend this tour as an introduction to Medellin and the public transportation system.
Awesome! Guide Ezequiel is a superb guide. I can recommend him to everyone! Thanks for the great and very informative tour, Ezequiel.
The guide was spectacular, and the tour with various activities made it very enjoyable.
Lina was a wonderful tour guide! She was so knowledgeable and told such great stories. She was also super friendly with amazing energy 🤗 my friend and I had such a great time exploring Comuna 13 as we know it was something we probably wouldn’t have done on our own. Make sure to not miss this!
Todo fue excelente.
Very cool! Luisa was very energetic and enthusiastic. She took care of the group and taught us a lot about Medellín's history and culture. Highly recommended! A++++++++
