    That was an interesting...
    Vadim_B, Dec 2022
    That was an interesting walk and the stories. However: 1. It took 2 hours, not 3. 2. The tour description says "we visit coffee shop" with snacks included - I don't think we had that. 3. At the end the guide said "it's a free walking tour so we depend on your tips". I'm OK with tips and I often take free walking tours, but that was not a free walking tour, I paid Viator $18 for it! For a moment I thought that maybe I joined a different tour, not the one I booked - but no, in the beginning the guide called us by names and my name was in his list. So maybe they merged a few tours, I don't know. 4. I felt a bit weird that the tour ended at the furthest point in the Comuna and the guide just told us to get back on our own (walk down, take the escalators, walk more, take a bus, and finally you will be back at the station). I would expect the guide to walk the group (or at least those who did not want to spend more time there on their own) at least to the bus.

    Hello Vadim, so sorry, that was a big mistake we did, yes as you say, you should go with the fixed price tour, but was a mistake, so sorry, won't happen again. and thank you so much for coming with us.
    This tour is a must in Medellin

    Esteban was our guide in English and he made ir very interesting. This tour is a must in Medellin and I loved the way Esteban told us about the long violence and now opportunities history of the area.

    Great tour to see the graffitis and art in the Commune 13
    Lukas_M, Feb 2020
    Great tour with lots of input about the art in the Commune 13! Very interesting to see the different graffitis and their meaning. Not too much focussing on history though, more on art.

    Leandro was a terrific tour guide, very informative and knew his history. He answered questions thoroughly with integrity and honesty. Well worth a visit to see how Medellin city has helped these locals.
