La experiencia con Javier por Medellín ha sido increíble. Nos ha parecido además de un gran profesional una gran persona. El tour ha sido súper agradable. Es una persona muy cercana como si te conociera de toda la vida y muy muy amable. Nos ha encantado pasar este ratico con el. Y por supuesto nos ha contado de una manera muy amena mucha historia de Colombia y de Medellín. Un 10 como guía.

Javier knows very well about the history of Medellin and Colombia. It's practically a private tour, full of stories. It lasted a little over 2 hours and I was well entertained. In the end we still went away together by subway and it was pretty cool. Javier is very kind. I highly recommend his tour. --- Javier conoce muy bien la historia de Medellín y Colombia.

Recomiendo encarecidamente su recorrido.

Es un tour para grupos pequeños, por lo que la información es personalizada, pero no esperes salir con mucha información de los lugares que vas a visitar. La información principal del tour no se centra en Medellín.
