    So interesting to learn the history of this Comuna from someone who grew up there and shares his personal experiences. The murals and other art are impressive. Sergio was so thoughtful and attentive to the needs and questions of our group members. Excellent experience! Also meaningful to support such a worthwhile youth education organization.

  • MUST DO THIS TOUR WITH THIS FOUNDATION!

    This is the best tour I’ve ever done. Sergio was the kindest guy, so passionate and knowledgeable about the area and the history. He took us to some incredible places outside the main hotspots that only a local would know. On top of that the foundation uses the tour money to help educate local kids and you can see the great work they do. Highly recommend

  • SO SO WORTH IT

    The trip was amazing, Sergio was so nice, chatty, and had amazing English. He is a local, and seems to know everyone the place. The icing on the cherry is knowing any profits go to his foundation to help kids. AMAZING

    We had an amazing time touring the streets of Comuna 13 with our guide Sergio and learning about the history from someone who was born and raised there. He went into great detail and answered all our questions. Amazing to see all the murals, performances and culture! Highly recommend as the proceeds help a not-for-profit for the youth in the community!

    This tour was unlike any other I've experienced in Medellin. My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of experiencing Comuna 13 with Sergio. He made us feel like a "local", taking us to areas with less tourists. The greatest part of it all is ALL proceeds go to the Insiders Foundation, which gives back directly to individuals living in Comuna 13. Great experience. HIGHLY recommend.
