Darwin was our guide for today. Although he seems to be a nice person, the tour itself wasn’t what we expected. While he gave us constantly plenty information about himself, his personal life, his family (including names), cat, preferences (eg. he doesn‘t like thunders), more information and facts about the area, history, culture, people would have been more what the tour should include. Also, he mostly did only very short stops and talked while walking without a microphone so that we couldn’t follow and understand what he said because it was too noisy around. So we missed many information which was very disappointing. Additionally, once he talked about the history, he jumped from one topic to another so that it was sometimes very hard to follow the story and information. We had plenty of various free walking tours but this was unfortunately the most disappointing. For the fact that the duration of the tour was around 3 hours, we didn’t learn much.
One of the finest tours I have experienced!! Not only was it detailed, but H ensured we were safe at all times. Gave us time to explore but most of all, gave us knowledge and insight
Brilliant tour guide who spoke incredibly eloquently about Colombian history and culture. What a great intro to the city!
The tour was really interesting and authentic. You see all parts of Medellin and learn about the history and how it became the city it is today.
