Jhoan was attentive, made our tour of communa 13 interesting and an unforgettable experience. He is very knowledgeable and imparts his lived experiences leaving us a lasting impression of the historical complexities of Columbia and the comuna 13Memorable tour of communa 13

Our family of 4 (including 2 teenagers) really enjoyed Jhoan’s tour. His explanation of the history of the conflict at the Museo de la Memoria was particularly good and interesting and he then took us on a walk through bustling markets, stopping a sites of interest. A great way to safely see some of real Medellín and learn something at the same time Excellent, knowledgable guide

Jhoan has an impressive depth of knowledge about both history and the local area. His personal stories make the trip feel engaging and relatable. His summaries are excellent — clear, concise, and to the point. He constantly offered us choices about what we would prefer to see or hear about, and even allowed us to choose the route. He answered every question we had.What really stood out is his personality — he’s not the kind of tour guide who overplays the role; instead, he comes across as genuine and authentic, which made him instantly likeable.It’s absolutely worth it, because Jhoan is the one who turns the tour into such an interesting and memorable experience.Genuine and knowledgable guide

You can’t get much better or well fed than with Jhoan! We toured around the city center while discussing the history, art, culture, food, and politics of Medellin, all while stopping at incredible food stalls and shops. He was very knowledgeable about everything so the tour felt more like a conversation between friends than a tour. Highly recommended! Had an incredible tour with Jhoan

I booked Jhoan because I wanted the tour of Comuna 13 to be fit for me and my family. Jhoan was absolutely a treat to have as our guide, he was so knowledgeable and sooo friendly. My whole family loved our tour and would definitely recommend him. #1

My husband, friend and I are new to Medellin and were looking to become more familiar with the city and history. We hit the jackpot with Jhoan! He has an intimate connection with the city and Comuna 13 in particular. You will get a thorough history of the warring factions that caused untold violence in Medellin as well as a resilient people who revived Comuna 13 to be the crown jewel of the city. Jhoan is an asset to honoring those who fell victim to violence. What an incredible and memorable day we had! Make sure you have the proper foot wear and stamina for countless stairs.Above and beyond
