Ride Medellín’s metro and cable car, trace Comuna 13’s graffiti stories, taste coffee and arepas, and enjoy a rooftop drink.
“This tour really made our trip! Amazing guide with lots of knowledge and history to share. The tour was visually stunning and an experience I would recommend! We had just one day to choose a tour and we were so pleased with Comuna 13 tour. Amazing!”
Visit Medellín sites tied to Pablo Escobar, from Inflexión Memorial Park to La Catedral and his grave, with an English-speaking guide.
“Daniel gave an excellent tour of all the major locations of the Medellín cartel while giving interesting historical context. The car rides are long but worth it to visit so many critical locations.”
Explore Cartagena’s Walled City and Getsemaní on a lively $12 walking tour covering conquest, slavery, independence, music, art, and local life.
“Dani was a great guide! She knew so much information on all the places we went to. She was so fun and gave us amazing treats along the way. Highly recommend because she also gives you pointers on where to eat and visit while you are in Cartagena!”
Spend 7.5 hours aboard a spacious Cartagena catamaran with two swim stops, snorkeling, lunch, free soft drinks, and Rosario Islands views.
“The activity is exactly what is stated, the private waiting area before boarding was great to get out of the hustle. They accommodate for English and Spanish speaking and explain each location in both so you won’t miss out on information. One thing they could add is how long each stop will be, at stages we weren’t sure if we had time for another swim after sun baking. The boat does honk its horn before departing The lunch was amazing, fresh salad and fruit with choice of seafood or chicken or vegetarian with rice. The chef loads your plate and if you want more salads you can help yourself to…”
Cycle Bogotá’s neighborhoods, taste exotic fruit, sip local coffee, see street art, and play tejo on a lively 4.5-hour city tour.
“I can highly recommend this tour! It's just awesome! You get so much to see during this time and you delve right into the city. I greatly enjoyed the fruit market where you can try a lot of different fruits. You also visit a café where they make their own coffee. On the way you stop frequently and get information about the neighborhood or things you see, even street art. They look very well after you and help you, if you have a problem with your bike. I always felt very safe and enjoyed the tour very much!”
Explore Comuna 13 with local guides, street food, art, viewpoints, escalators, and rap or breakdance for $14 in three hours.
“Jorge is an spectacular guide who does his trade with passion and living experience highly recommended”
Review the Rosario Islands day trip from Cartagena, with snorkeling, Cholón, Playa Blanca, lunch, boat tips, costs, and who should book.
“The boat was CRAMMED with people. You’re thrown in with random groups of families and partners. And it was not a nice boat. The first island could have been skipped. Snorkeling was great, as was the party island and the lunch. But I would definitely try to find a more private boat for a better time.”
Visit Zipaquirá Salt Cathedral from Bogotá, explore its underground chambers, tour the colonial town, and enjoy hotel pickup and bilingual guidance.
“I had an amazing experience with Sergio and Andres. The day was full of fun and all the accommodations were provided. They went out of way to help in every way possible and the whole your was not rushed. Will return again”
Explore Medellín’s Comuna 13 by metro, cable car, and bus, with local guides, vivid street art, city views, and stories of renewal.
“Perfect way to explore a part of the city that we probably wouldn’t go if it wasn’t in a tour! The history says a lot of this place, thanks to our guide for giving the information and the assurance for being there. Great experience, highly recommend it”
Review of Medellín's D'Arrieros coffee tour, with farm walks, tastings, Paisa lunch, transport, optional horseback riding, and practical tips.
“I did a coffee farm tour in Medellín with Lorraina as our guide, and it was such a wonderful experience. Lorraina was absolutely lovely – very welcoming, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the whole process of coffee production with us. She explained everything clearly and with so much enthusiasm, which made the tour both fun and educational. The farm itself was beautiful, and it was fascinating to see each stage of how coffee is grown, harvested, and prepared. Getting to taste the coffee right there on the farm was a real highlight! I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Medellín, especially with Lorraina as the guide. She really made…”
Explore Bogotá’s La Candelaria with a local guide, tasting Colombian fruit and coffee while uncovering art, architecture, and history.
“We were a small group of 5 people and our guide Juana took us from the Candelaria to the central part while explaining about the history and life in these parts of Bogotá. We also learned about local fruits and got to try them. Juana had great energy and a lot of passion for Bogotá. Definitely recommend 🙌”
