Excellent - An amazing experience from start to finish. Jorge was an exceptional guide, very professional, who told us the story of Commune 13 from his own experiences as a resident of the sector. The tour is a total immersion in culture, urban art and community resilience. Undoubtedly, an experience I recommend 100%.

Excellent experience in Commune 13 - It certainly exceeded my expectation due to the historical knowledge of the Commune by our guide Nancy Pérez, who in addition to showing us the Commune gave us a retelling of the story of a sad past and at the same time of a successful present and a hopeful future for the residents of Commune 13.
Grateful greatly for the experience.
Congratulations to our guide Nancy Perez.
