Hello! Welcome to Medellin and Comuna 13. We are local guides passionate about urban art, graffitis, our community, its people and its history. As local residents of this Comuna, we lived its past of conflict, but we also lived its great transformation. Join us to show you this incredible place, and let us be your guides and tell you the stories from the experiences that we lived.
Primo was an excellent guide! it is clear that he loves his neighborhood and cares about showing it in a respectful way. loved his personal stories and the different areas he took us to. finishing at his family bar was so beautiful.
I very much recommend this tour! Alex did an amazing job! He was very passionate about the storys he told us and you could see his connection with the community. Only thing I would have preferred is that he could have shown us a little more of the street art pieces but I see how it's difficult in a limited time frame. So, if you're doing the tour I recommend you to plan some more time afterwards to have a closer look into areas that wasn't time for during the tour.
Very interesting tour. The fact that the guide lived in the neighbourhood was a big advantage as he shared some first hand stories. The thing to improve: each time we stopped for a story it was almost always the loudest place within 20 m. It was really difficult to follow. I realize it Comuna 13 is loud but it would help greatly if we moved like 5 metres from omnipresent loudspeakers or other guide shouting near us.
Cristian primo was a good tour guide and spoke from personal experience, which made the tour richer
