I loved it! I recommend! - I really liked the walk through the 13th commune. We took a cable car, we went up the community and the guide Oscar was explaining everything with a lot of sympathy and patience. It was too worth it!

Great Tour Thanks Henry!! - We had a great tour with Henry. We were able to see. Comuna 13 and walk the amazing neighborhood. Henry was able to tell us the history of the neighborhood and how it transformed from being under the rule of a drug lord and one of the most dangerous places in the world tour tourist Haven the transformation was amazing. We also stopped by Pablo Escobar's safe house and where he was captured as it was on the way Henry was a great tour guide very flexible which was great because this was the last stop on our nine day trip to Colombia and we were already tired.

Wonderful experience with an excellent guide! - Loved our tour around Comuna 13 with Henry. He was very knowledgeable and also flexible - we had two very young children with us and he adjusted the pace to ensure they could keep up with the walking. He shared so many insights about the area, and we learnt so much. A real highlight of the trip, and Henry was excellent. We would recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience with Henry! - We had the best day with Henry! He was flexible with the pace as we had two young children with us, and was so knowledgable and passionate about the area. It was a highlight of the trip, we learnt so much, and he even gave us some amazing food recommendations for our afternoon. Would highly recommend this trip if you’re looking for a tour guide who isn’t pushy, and enables you to explore the area at your own pace!

Comuna 13 with Henry! - Jane and I had a wonderful time experiencing Comuna 13 with our tour guide Henry. He explained the history of the area from the days of fighting with the guerrillas and all the pain of those times to the present day tourist attraction with everyone enjoying themselves. He really made our experience special. I asked to try the various tropical fruits and he made a tray of different passion fruits, mangosteen and others. It was great. He was a fantastic guide.

Great tour, highly recommend it. - Oscar was great. He picked us up on time for our private tour. The vehicle was great as well. He explained many things to us in good English as we drove. The cable car ride was very clean with excellent views. He obviously knows his way around as he greeted a couple other tour guides and a few vendors. We can’t imagine going to Communa 13 without a guide. The background of the area and descriptions of the graffiti were very helpful. When done we asked to be dropped off in the Laureles neighborhood vs back at our hotel which he gladly did. He recommended Mundo Verde for lunch which we enjoyed. Great tour and highly recommend it.
