Great tour and guide! - This tour was very fun and informative. Our guide John was extremely friendly and energetic. He told the story of Pablo that was nicely intertwined with the places we were visiting. We were never rushed throughout the entire time and it was a great experience!

Must-Do Personalized Historical Tour of Medellin - John was an incredible tour guide. Between his passion for sharing his city with people and his own personal additions to the story, this was a truly wonderful way to understand Medellin’s history. His personal narrative and friendly personality combined with the historical facts made this tour unforgettable and a must do when in Medellin. John is the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tour guides :)

This tour is better than expected! Go on this one with Andres!! - Andres was an absolute great tour guide. He gave us so much history of Colombia and Pablo that I was impressed. He left no stone unturned and it was well worth my time! I would suggest this tour and Andres to anyone (especially Americans that doesn’t speak Spanish) to ask for Andres! We got a huge bonus while visiting Pablo’s gravesite, Memphis Bleek was also visiting Pablo’s gravesite and we got to talk to him and take pictures with him as well. The cherry on top! Thanks to Andres!!

Great Tour!!! Great guide!!! - This tour was great, and I recommend it very highly...The guide was fantastic!!!! Very friendly, was able to conduct the tour in English or in Espanol...great stories and information and Pablo Escobar and some of the important places in his life. But even better, being on this tour I felt included in an authentic Colombian, and an authentic Medellin, experience. I would definitely go again to take friends or family who have not had the tour before.

Escobar + Cathedral Excursion - Our guide Andres was incredibly kind, he made us discover his passion for this city full of history. Only slight disappointment because we had booked with a French guide but when we arrived there Andres told us that it was not possible. But no regrets Andres was up to the task!

Great guide but the tour is too expensive - The tour guide was exceptional, but the tour is not worth the price they charge. Is not that going to all this places can worth the amount charged

Boring - The tourguide didn‘t talk a lot and we had to ask for Everything. He stayed in the car at the stops. Only at la cathedral he came with us and told us a little bit about it. Way too much Money for that lazy tour.
