Amazing experience with knowledgeable tour guide - If I could give this 6 stars I would. Camilo was super knowledgeable about the history and impact of Pablo Escobar and showed us locations all over Medellin. He also brough photos - of people, places and buildings, which gave context to where we were and the story. This was a fascinating tour, and I would strongly recommend any history buffs or anyone interested in the city of Medellín and Pablo Escobar to take this tour with Camilo.

Amazing tour with an amazing guide - Camilo was absolutely amazing! He is very knowledgeable, allows you as much time as you like to observe the different places on the tour, and he even stopped at a coffee farm for us to buy coffee. I highly recommend him and will absolutely take another tour with him. Thank you, Camilo!

Excellent knowledge and tour - Camilo is very knowledgeable about all of the local history about Pablo, his mansions and the surrounding areas. He was able to give the in depth history given that he is a lifelong native of medellin. I found myself continuously impressed by the level of detail he was able to provide. Cheers, Camilo for the tour!!

Great guide - He was very prompt and informative. He was also very helpful w giving information I needed for the city. He also can arrange a nurse to come to your hotel for the covid test before your flight. And provides good transfer to airport. Highly recommend as a guide.

Amazing day in a historic place with a knowledgeable and friendly guide - Absolutely amazing tour. Comilo has incredible access to La Catedral and he gave us an unforgettable tour. From the history to the escape route to facts I didn't realize about Pablo and the Medellin Cartel, he covered it all. He speaks perfect english and spanish, comfortable vehicle for driving around the city, and is always flexible if you're tired of walking or just want a beer :) Thanks again and I will definitely be telling my friends that visit Medellin about Comilo!
