Carlos was an amazing tour guide. He taught us a great deal of Colombian history and culture giving us a rich appreciation of the area. He was super friendly and easy to talk to, helping us practice our Spanish but also able to explain anything fully in English. Carlos has great relationships with many locals giving you a true V.I.P. Experience.

The most memorable part was my wonderful guide Carlos from Star Tours. He was so knowledgeable and kind. Very thorough! My favorite parts were the cable car ride and the live rap show we saw. But I actually loved everything about the tour. Omg and the art!!!

My favorite part of this tour was the whole tour. From the very beginning Carlos picked us up and explained what was on the itinerary. He was very accommodating and took his time to answer our questions and explain the history of Communa 13, the history, murals, and information of how Communa 13 has transformed. Carlos also, gave us time to so some explore, shop, and have a drink at a local bar. The tour in general was great, you will not regret booking with him.
