We had an outstanding experience with Royhel, our guide from Amazing Tours Medellín, on a comprehensive 4+ hour tour of the city. The itinerary was thoughtfully curated and included a metro ride, gondola (Metrocable) trips, and a guided walk through Comuna 13, offering both depth and variety. The tour seamlessly combined history, culture, and lived experience. We sampled local snacks along the way and gained valuable insight into Medellín’s complex past and remarkable transformation. The street art in Comuna 13 was particularly powerful—each mural telling part of a carefully curated narrative of resilience, identity, and hope. Highlights also included an energetic breakdance performance and an impromptu rap session that brought the area’s creative spirit vividly to life. It was a full, busy, and incredibly rewarding day. Royhel is young, enthusiastic, highly informative, and genuinely passionate about his city. His energy, knowledge, and storytelling made the experience engaging from start to finish. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an authentic, meaningful introduction to Medellín beyond the usual tourist perspective

This was a well planned and executed tour of Comuna 13. Our group did not use the escalators, and instead, weaved our way up the community through a series of stairs taking us to several viewpoints of the area, experiencing a dance show and a custom rap music performance along the way. We had several food treats and a drink. Our guide, Royhel, was excellent.

Today, December 15, 2025, I had this excursion on the calendar for 2:00 pm. At approximately 12.30 pm the activity was cancelled by the operator without prior notice. No alternative from other dates or times. This is the first time I've had this experience. I have been coordinating excursions with Viator and Expedía for years and this is the first time this has happened to me.

After a somewhat bumpy start 😋😋😋, the experience was great, Samuel is a great guide, he knows a lot about the subject and made the whole journey interesting and entertaining, he always kept an eye on each of the members of the group. We spent a day full of emotions and camaraderie. The food tasting and the typical ice cream, maracumango, was delicious. Super recommended... 😊😊😊

We had an amazing time with my family. Visiting la Comuna and feeling the warm welcome of everyone that lives there was an amazing experience. Especially thanks to our amazing tour guide Leo, he was very kind and knowledgeable. I can’t recommend him enough if you’re considering visiting La Comuna 13
