Loved it! - Really enjoyed the Comuna 13 tour. We did not know much about the history or place but by the end of the tour we were left with such a connect to the place! Luis is a great guide and is so well researched and makes the tour a lot of fun! Luis is definitely the best and it is because of his passion and way of doing the tour that it became so memorable! He even adds personal touches like making you spray paint on graffiti, eat local food and laugh!

Absolutely loved this, highly recommended tour - Such an amazing tour of comuna 13! The team was so accomodating, I was half an hour late because of traffic but Lucho, my guide, was waiting for me and was so sweet. It was just the two of us and he really took a lot of time to explain the history of the area. Plus the drone photos were awesome! And I booked this all the day of, was really easy to book, the team was super easy to work with, highly recommend it!

Ask for Lucho! - SAG Tours did an amazing job providing an authentic experience of Comuna 13. Our guide, Lucho, was very insightful, funny, and in tune with the community. The tour started promptly, the activity level (walking up and down) was not too strenuous, we were met amazing people and learned their story. It was an inspiring experience and the snack at the end was the best way to end the tour!

Recommend SAG Tours to do this tour - A unique experience in a very private tour mode. Our guide lives in the Comuna and gave and showed us a lot of information off the tourists growds.

Fantastic tour with drone movie and pictures - This was a very good tour. Jazz was perfect as my guide. And I loved the dronemovie and pictures. Really gave the experience that extra umph. The only thing yhat would improve the tour would be if it’s possible to find more places that are a little bit quiet when you get the information from the guide. Because there’s a lot of loud music everywhere so it’s hard to hear all the information.
