walk the city - Walking the streets of the city of Medellin is seeing the strength of the country where the development of the city is seen. Safety is also very positive. Walking through the space and being impressed with the commerce where you literally find anything you need.

Amazing City Tour - Joe was the best tour guide we’ve had! His vibrant personality & knowledge of Medellin made our experience unforgettable. He took us to some amazing spots, including Comuna 13, the Botanical Gardens, and Plaza Botero. We also took the metro-cable, which led us to a beautiful nature reserve. We truly got to see the city like locals. Would highly recommend!

Great sightseeing! - We had such an amazing time! Albert Gomez was our tour guide and took us to so many places, the private tour is very personable and lots of great sightseeing. Plenty of time to do absolutely anything you want to do/see. 10/10 recommend and would book another one.

Full Day Private Tour with a Cousin!! - We had an amazing time with Esteban! He took us around the whole city, showed us the best Medellin has to offer, and made us feel like family the whole time. The tour included Communa 13, Botero Plaza downtown, the metro, and the MetroCable system up to Parque Arvi. What a wonderful, private tour to experience the city! Would recommend to everyone

EXCELLENT tour!!!! - Daniel Escobar led us on a full day private tour of Medellin City and Fernando Botero's Plaza. The experience with Daniel was nothing short of AMAZING! A 20 / 10 experience! Daniel went over and beyond, which we greatly appreciated. Daniel was not only highly knowledgeable and very generous in sharing that knowledge with us, he was also highly attentive and responsive to our needs. We started the day at Plaza de Botero where Daniel expertly and confidently guided us through the beautiful outdoor sculptures, the Palacio de la Cultura Rafael Uribe and the Museo de Antioquia. After that, we had a safe and wonderful experience on the metro where we visited the botanic gardens, followed by a cable car ride to Parque Arví. We topped the day with a wonderful introduction to Communa 13. Overall, we had an absolute blast with Daniel and would recommend his services without any reservation. Thanks Daniel for an amazing day!

Like having a local friend for a day. Informative, comprehensive and fun! - The tour was wonderful! My guide was knowledgable and easy-going - I really felt like I was exploring the city with a friend. Not only did he cover all the major sights but also personalised the tour for me by visiting some atypical sites and giving me a real local view of the city and it's culture. My guide took me for lunch at his favourite local restaurant for one of the best meals I had during my visit. Having a private tour also allowed me to spend more (or less) time at places so we could cover more of them. I highly recommend signing up for this - particularly if you're new to the city!

Very Professional company. Great service. - The car they sent to me broke a few minutes after we left for our tour. We had to be taken back to the hotel. But I need to congratulate Camilo. He quickly found a replacement car and guide and sent them to the hotel. Unfortunately, at that moment, we had already booked another tour (since we didn't have time to waste). These things happen. Camilo and his company did everything to get it fixed. But since we had already gone, they gave us a full refund on Viator. I would recommend this company to anyone who comes to Medellin. We all loved their punctuality and accountability.
