Since I was young I have been interested in history and the whys of things, in understanding processes and being part of the changes. I have been a tourism business administrator since 2019 and since 2017 I have been working as a tour guide mostly in commune 13 of Medellín. I have always been interested in showing the authenticity of the city and the processes of social transformation. I like to share experiences, teach and learn, and raise awareness through the history of people or places. My life experience has created in me the thought of giving and receiving with love and sincerity.
This tour is designed to get to know as much as possible during these hours, not just being in the tourist area but having an authentic experience and getting to know everyday life while we are in more places in this charming Commune. I tell stories from freshness, knowledge, reality, experience and experiences, since it is in this area of the city where I was born and currently live; The idea is that from the first moment we all feel at home and enjoy it as if we were friends . Confidence and good vibes are the starting point for many admirable things.
Guided tour of Comuna 13 of Medellín where I want to highlight the social transformation that this place has had, show how art and culture were fundamental factors in this process and understand from the inside a new way of life and seeing things.
The meeting point and start of the tour is: the San Javier station of the Medellín metro in the metrocable (cable car) area, be careful not to leave the station because we will use the means of transport, it should also be noted that this station has two exits, the main one that is on the first floor and the metrocable one that is on the second.
Once gathered at the meeting point we will take a ride on the Comuna 13 cable car, this is public transport and will give us a broader view of the territory since these neighborhoods are quite far from the tourist area , this tour lasts approximately 25 minutes and after this we will be in the most important and central neighborhood of the commune (San Javier neighborhood), there I show and comment on some things, and we will take a medium-sized bus that will take us to the tourist and most artistic area.
Once we are in the middle of the GraffitiTour , we will visit the Independence neighborhoods, the escalators, the largest open-air urban art gallery in the city and the viaduct that connects different neighborhoods.
If it is to your liking, you will try a homemade and artisanal ice cream well known by locals and foreigners, gastronomy from various cultures of the country and we will enjoy dance, trova and freestyle shows (all shows are free, the artists receive voluntary contributions), also at Being in a high area of the city , the landscape that can be seen is fascinating, suitable for very good photographs .
This is a fairly safe place, its people are friendly and helpful, which is why after being in the tourist area the route continues in a nearby but totally everyday neighborhood where you will appreciate the ''normal'' life of commune 13 to Finish this guided tour in the Peace Park, there you take transportation either to the metro station or to a specific point.
Within the tour we will have moments to listen to stories, see shows, ask and answer, and what I always want is for this place to show you a new way of seeing life and things.
Second floor of the San Javier station of the Medellín metro in the cable car area without leaving the station. When you leave the train, go to the side where there are escalators, climb them and that is where you arrive at our meeting point. However, please confirm attendance, you can do it through WhatsApp: 573003946275 or leave me a message on this platform.
