Free Walking Tours in Medellín

Sebastian was kind, friendly and very informative about the area and had great recommendations for us! Would highly recommend!

We learned a lot about the Comuna 13, its past and the ongoing metamorphosis. Cristian (el primo) was a knowlegable guide, who combined humour, history and also was able to spark our curiousness to learn more about this stunning place. His openness and the personal stories he shared made the tour easy to follow and even more meaningful. The finishing place was really special and you definitly should not miss it.

Christian was a great guide. His tour was very informative, answered all questions, had a great sense of humor and was super professional.

This was a fantastic tour that took place in the Central Mayorista market - not somewhere we’d otherwise have gone. Julian gave us lots of information not just about the fruits we tried, but also the history of Colombia and of Medellin, and how some of the fruits are important to the region, nation and economy. We tried about 15 fruits in all (included in the tour, no extra cost), some familiar and some new to us. Our group was surprisingly large - about 15 people - which I think would normally have not been ideal, but since we went the day after Christmas, the market was quiet so the large group didn’t seem very disruptive to the vendors or shoppers. Overall, I was looking forward to this tour and it exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!

Sebastian was in one of the best guru guides I have ever had. He gave us just enough information for it to be extremely informative and interesting without weighting us down in too many facts. He kept it lively with his trivia competition with a promise of a prize at the end. Luckily I won a prize despite being an Once Caldas fan.

Was the best tour I've ever been too. Huge amount of fruits and lots of information. Very interesting history moments, excellent guide. Thanks to Juan that we didn't have to pay for any fruits anywhere and nobody at the market asked for tips but was very friendly and respectful. Juan was very attentive to everyone and was the excellent guide. Thank you so much!!!

Alexander is such a great guide. He’s a local so is very knowledgeable and knows the area very well. We loved it and thoroughly recommend!

Christian was so knowledgeable! I liked how he could share so much information, but in a clear and concise way so that I could follow and stay concentrated. He also took us to personal areas and shared information on his life as well as the history of the Conuma. Best walking tour I've done!

Amazing tour! It was incredibly informative and gave us deep insights into Comuna 13 that we never would have found on our own. Our local guide Sebastian shared personal stories that brought the history and vibrant street art to life, making the neighborhood’s transformation feel truly inspiring. From the iconic escalators to the street performers, it was a genuine connection to the heart of Medellín. Highly recommended!

Bestest and most informative tour I could have imagined - Christian was amazing as a guide and I enjoyed his pleasant story telling immensely, alongside free freebies on the way - must visit !

The Teacher is an excellent storyteller! He made the long uphill walk worth every effort!

Christian was a wonderful guide! We learned so much, and he weaved in his personal history with the history of Communa 13 and Colombia. He was generous with our three kids, and we would recommend him without hesitation!

It was really good and informative. The guide knows the district well I would wish that further info resources were suggested

It was a very interesting tour and Sebastien was an excellent tour guide. I was there with my 2 teenagers whose attention was fully captured!

Very friendly guide that was very eager to give an answer to all questions, also to very difficult ones.

Really interesting, engaging, and informational tour. Christian provided such an educational overview of the district, its history, even weaving in his own personal family ties and history throughout the tour. The group size was small and intimate and allowed for lots of questions throughout. He showed us multiple sides and facets to the neighborhood. Strongly recommend!

Very nice tour including the history of the area, including a break dance show, visiting art galleries and chocolate shops. Our guide spoke excellent English.

Excellent!

Alex spoke so beautifully about his community with so much passion. He was very inspiring to learn about communa 13’s past and present

Alexander led a great tour of Comuna 13. He is from the area and has been leading tours for over 10 years. He was engaging and informative, and passionate about the transformation Comuna 13 has gone through. Completely recommend!
