A sad history of Medellín but worth to know
Hernandez1697,May 27, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Extraordinary, unique and very sad. The only way you can't repeat a bad history is knowing the bad history of the past so you don't commit the same errors. It was an intense and hearthbreaking tour. Our guide Julio talk to us with respect and solemnity of the fallen victims, the atrocities and the one of the darkest times of Medellin history. It's a very inmerssive kind of tour that takes you to the reality of those times. The scare poblation, the sound of the firing guns, the expansive power of the bombs. This wasn't fun, but was the reality of a period of time. I identified with the people that were affected by those issues. But I felt the disposition of an entire city that from the scratch of the mud, they stood and became one of the best modern cities in the world. We visited so many places that in the past were violent places and know are examples of how the people can stand up and build a new reality, a new world. That's called resilience. And I admire this people from the city, comunas, and every place I walked because they look happy and very attentive. After all the things I've heard and saw, I can tell you without doubt that Medellín is one of the safest places in earth. And I very proud of them. It's my 2nd trip to Medellin, but I know there be a lot more...

5.00The Pablo Escobar tour was amazing and such a highlight of my time in Medellín. Our guide Henry was fantastic—super friendly, easy to talk to, and full of great stories that made the history come alive. I really liked how he connected the past to the Medellín of today, which gave a much deeper understanding of the city. Learned so much, had a great time, and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting!
