Back in the early 1990s, Medellín was considered the most dangerous city in the world. Pablo Escobar and the “Cartel of Medellín” controlled vast parts of the international cocaine traffic. Thus, the reign of “El Patrón” came to its end and just a few years later Medellín began to change when local politicians started to invest heavily in infrastructure and public education.
Get to know the memorial park of the dark years of Escobar, “Parque de Inflexión”, built on one of his former properties, and honor the countless victims. Explore the “Casa de la Memoria” - an urban conflict investigation center – that offers exclusive insights into the controversial part of the city’s recent history - nowadays a place of hope and a landmark of social transformation. Your private expert guide provides insider information on the historical dimension of the phenomenon of Escobar and you will obtain a deeper understanding of the unique history of Medellín and the uniqueness of its transformation.

I was completely astonished and amazed after understanding Medellin's history and this was thanks to our outstanding and knowledgable guide and the way this tour is structured. Casa de la Memoria is fascinating museum to learn about the history of Medellin. There is a lot of misinformation and paradigm when it comes to the topic of Escobar but this tour truly helps you understand the truth and see the big picture. We did it in private transport and everything went great. Amazing experience! Highly recommended!
