Hola! Bienvenidos a Medellin y a la Comuna 13. Somos Guías Locales apasionados por el arte urbano, los graffitis, nuestra comuna, su gente e historia. Como habitantes de la comuna vivimos su pasado de conflicto, pero también vivimos su gran transformación, y es por esto que queremos mostrarte este cambio y que nos permitas ser tu guía para contarte la historia a partir de las experiencias vividas.
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
All okay, I would suggest the guide to ask the present if they have questions because otherwise it became a one way communication.
