5.00Andrés was a great guide and I truly believe i received an authentic perspective on Colombian culture that most tourists unfortunately would not receive. If you are looking to hear an alternative side to the history and culture of Colombia I highly booking this tour.

5.00I did about 10 tours in 3 weeks in Colombia and this one really stood out. You go to residential areas away from tourist traps, meet real locals, learn about making traditional drinks, and much more. There is also some public transport and some insights into resistance and revolutionary groups as well as corruption. I do not want to say too much more as I would rather not spoil surprises, but this is a special experience.
