What To Expect
Metro de Medellin
We will take the Metro Cable in the San Javier station, in the west of the city, however in the same place we can appreciate the B line of the Metro. Here we will enjoy an unparalleled view, with the aim of being a little closer to the neighborhoods that make up Comuna 13.
Escaleras Electricas De La Comuna 13
The commune 13 is a place full of color, dance, life, flavor. It is a space to appreciate the transformation of a city that has been stigmatized by a difficult and violent past. Being in the middle of the community makes you part of a great family like the city, which today struggles to keep all the good that has been achieved after leaving the war behind.

Perfect way to explore Medellin

5.00My boyfriend and I hired a private tour guide in Medellin, Colombia to show us points of interest related to Pablo Escobar, Community 13, and a mountaintop park with views of the city. Henry, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Henry made the day easy by picking us up from our hotel and driving to each location. We learned so much while feeling safe every step of the way. Our favorite part was visiting the local shops while exploring Community 13. If you are interested in seeing a variety of areas in Medellin, then you must book a private tour with this company. Henry and Oscar are excellent.
Our guide Oscar was kind...

5.00We booked with Oscar for this tour while we were ON our Guatapé tour because we had such an amazing time with him! Traveling as 2 women in Medellín we immediately felt safe and comfortable with him - he is so funny, kind and knowledgeable. He truly made our experience in Medellín and his tour of Comuna 13 was emotional, fun and incredibly informative. He is clearly a member of the community and a lot of people know him - he even was able to introduce us to one of the street artists who was working that day. He is very special and worth every penny!

5.00This is the best Comuna 13 tour to book. Our tour guide Julio César is a wealth of knowledge and the cable car was the perfect opportunity to get a detailed history before you immerse yourself in the rich culture of the neighborhoods vendors and artists.

5.00Our private tour of Comuna 13 and cable car experience on Oct 31, was incredible. Oscar, our guide, was very knowledgeable, personable, and fun! He provided us with an insiders look into the history of the community and the people. More, he shared how the history depicted in the graffiti, tells a story that all Paisa can attest to, as all were impacted. Strongly recommend this tour and Oscar, if you visit Medellin!
