Perfect way to explore a part of the city that we probably wouldn’t go if it wasn’t in a tour! The history says a lot of this place, thanks to our guide for giving the information and the assurance for being there. Great experience, highly recommend it

Hulya – Netherlands

This tour is definitely a must-do, especially if you’re staying in one of Medellín’s developed neighborhoods. It offers a unique glimpse into the city’s history—something you don’t want to miss. Our guide, Walter, spoke excellent English and shared not only valuable insights about the country’s history and politics but also the personal story of the neighborhood. That personal touch is what made this tour so special. You’re exploring the city through the eyes of a local, making the experience even more authentic and impactful.

Full description

Discover Medellín's Comuna 13 district on a guided tour with a local. Enjoy stunning views of the city from a cable car, learn about the local street artists, and hear how this formerly dangerous area has evolved.
Meet your guide in the metro station to begin the tour and experience Medellín like a local. Learn all about the stations and key points in the city, as well as how the metro system helped shape the new Medellin.

When arriving at the connecting station, hop on a cable car up the hill. As you go, admire the panoramic views of the city and find out about its evolving history and troubled past. At the top, take a short ride on the bus toward the Comuna 13 district.

At Comuna 13, the real fun begins. An enthusiastic guide will explain all the positive changes made to transform what was once one of the most dangerous communities in South America into a symbol of the new Medellín.

You will have time to take in all the amazing street art and ride the electric outdoor escalators to the top observation deck, which offers incredible views.
