Private Tour
Medellin from Above and Inside, Picacho Viewpoint
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
Medellin doesn't just look... it lives from above and inside.
In this night experience, you will discover two sides of the city in one tour:
the most striking views from the mountains and real life beating in their neighborhoods.
We start with a local tour through communes full of history, where you will begin to feel the authentic essence of Medellin, far from touristic.
Then, we arrive at Cerro El Picacho Ecopark, where a short walk (15 minutes + short break) takes you to one of the most imposing viewpoints in the city.
The return is not just a journey, it is part of the experience.
We will make a strategic stop in a local neighborhood, where you can feel up close the real energy of Medellin: its people, its culture and its daily dynamics, away from any tourist staging.
You don't come here to watch from afar.
You come to connect with the city from the inside, as it really is.

5.00I had such a great time doing this tour. The view from el mirador in the day time and night time was spectacular. The tour guide, Frardini, was so nice and attentive and even went above and beyond with showing me around. I would totally recommend this tour.

5.00Amazing experience with a wonderful guide! Learned so much about the past and present of Medellín. An experience I will never forget! The views in the evening are stunning. Zipping through Medellín on a motorcycle was a unique and unforgettable experience. Got amazing pics!
