Comuna 13 Tour
My family toured Comuna 13 with Jhoan. Jhoan was very responsive when communicating. We had no trouble meeting. Jhoan walked us through Comuna 13. He did an amazing job providing context by explaining the history that led Comuna 13 to be what it is today. Jhoan did a great job answering our questions. I would highly recommend booking with Jhoan.
