We did the cable car tour to El Paraiso with guide Daniel and local guide Andrea and it was great! The guides knew how to tell very fascinating stories and you go off the standard tourist beaten path. We got a good idea of local life. And there is a lot of beautiful street art to see!
100% recommended! Magnificent exit full of history and far from mass tourism.

Great day with Daniel and Brayan. The experience is unique and the place beautiful. There were only three of us. We felt safe and the explanations were very complete and interesting. Daniel speaks perfect English and brayan is learning it. At noon, dinner at a local restaurant was excellent. We recommend 100% this authentic experience away from tourist places in a place that deserves to be seen!
