What you will do

At the agreed time, we will pick you up in a comfortable vehicle at your accommodation and head to one of the neighborhoods historically most affected by violence in Medellín: COMUNA 13.

Considered one of the most dangerous communities in South America during the 90s, this neighborhood has managed to transform its reality through the implementation of positive changes. The HIP-HOP CULTURE, the inspiring language of graffiti, the resilient spirit of its inhabitants, and state investment—creating ESCALATORS that connect the community—have helped foster social cohesion and a sense of belonging among the residents.

During the tour, you will explore one of the most colorful neighborhoods in Medellín, admire the majestic VIEWS of the city from its different LOOKOUT POINTS, and enjoy URBAN ART as you stroll through its streets. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to taste a traditional FRUIT ICE CREAM, ride the METROCABLE, attend various SHOWS, and interact with local residents and artists who will guide you to learn closely about their history and that of Comuna 13.

Immerse yourself in this diverse neighborhood, a symbol of transformation, reconciliation, and innovation in the city of Medellín, and enjoy a unique artistic experience guided by our local collaborators.
