Graffiti Tour - Great experience of commune 13, being a private group we could go at our own pace and enjoy how much morality we wanted. Daniel the guide was spectacular, highly informed of the situation of commune 13 and its sad history of the past. We also received local snacks and felt very safe going with a local.

A true eye opening experience - Esteban was a great tour guide. He offered alot of historical information about the indigenous people of the area, the afro Colombian relevance and the tragic past experienced by the residents of the community! Its so bright and beautiful, but every image “paints a story”. Love it!
