Incredible experience around Medellin with Jhoan! He is so flexible for time of tours, dates and will adapt to almost anything! Very friendly and passionate about his city he will take the time to answer every question that you may have! I would recommend Jhoan to anyone looking for the best local experience, regarding food around the city, history and culture and even history of the #1 religion in Colombia, futból! See you soo amigo :)
Jhoan was an awesome tour guide and travel expert! He showed us all around Medellin and gave us even more information than the details we received through our larger travel agency. He took us around to his favorite street food areas and showed us some hidden secret cultural pieces as well. It was some of the best food we had all trip. After the food tour, he offered to take us to Comuna 13 on a different day after our other tours. He was nice enough to answer a late text from me a few days later and meet up with us to show Comuna 13 at night. This was an amazing experience to see all the sights, people, and culture really come alive. Jhoan has firsthand knowledge of the area and incredible passion for sharing it. We felt extremely safe and were so happy we got to check it out at night. Cannot recommend him or the tours enough!!
