What To Expect

Begin with pickup at your Medellín hotel, then travel to Bolivar Square in a private, air-conditioned vehicle. This sprawling, outdoor flea market is the perfect place to find locally-made handicrafts, and your guide can share insider knowledge about the best places to shop for high-quality, authentic products. The handmade products are varied and creative, and include items woven from dried grass, palm leaf baskets, silver jewelry, bright, hand-sewn bags, and dolls. You can also find hammocks, woven fabrics, and traditional clothing, like colorful, flounced skirts and flowered headdresses.
Snap photos as you explore at your own pace, then continue to a second market area that’s located just a few blocks away. Visit the largest indoor crafts market in Medellín, which offers a colorful glimpse of Paisa culture—Paisa people are also known as ‘Antioqueños,’ and share roots from around the world. This tour concludes with return transfer to your Medellín hotel.

This tour was so much fun. The personal service Silvio provided was superb! I had booked a private tour and we were able to visit the handcrafts market, a food market where I tasted delicious exotic fruit and finally visited the graffiti area in Comuna 13. Thanks to Silvio it was the best day yet!
