I went on a tour to Comuna 13 with Julian who was super accommodating as I was under pressure for time Julian helpful taking photos and very knowledgeable about Medellin as a whole. I would suggest making a day of it because you can experience the local food, drink, and speciality mango ice lolly. Great to see the amazing graffiti and the local kids dancing etc.

Everything was excellent, very kind, and explained in great detail. Comuna 13 Guatapé
We did with Julian the tour of commune 13 and commune 3 and we loved it. The truth is that the combination of visits is fantastic because it allows you to see what has become the 13th, a real stage for art of all kinds: music, dancing, murals..., and a social project in full development. Hopefully when we return the 3rd is the true reflection of the 13th because they are doing a great job, turning their neighborhoods into safe spaces for their neighbors and attractive for tourists. Highly recommended!! Julián is a lovely guy and has made our lives easier these days in Medellín.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable experience thanks to Julian From the first moment, Julian made us feel at home. More than a guide, he was part of our family during the trip. His knowledge of Medellin, his charisma, patience and passion for what he does made the difference in each tour. Thanks to him, we knew the city from the heart, with history, culture and human warmth. I will always remember Medellin with a smile for everything she taught us and how she made us feel. Recommended at 1000%! 🙌🇨🇴
We really enjoyed the tours with Julian, he is a great professional, we had a great time with him and everything was very interesting, he cares to adapt to your tastes and needs, visiting the city with him was a real pleasure! We recommend it!!
The experience with Medellin Tourists and in particular with Julian, is incredible, makes you feel confident from the beginning and their personalized tours are extraordinary because it adapts to your interests and needs. The guide is very cultured and always gives interesting and important facts about the city.
The visit to commune 3 by Don Oscar and Don Julian is the best thing we have done on our trip to Medellin. Professionalism, kindness... we leave with a full heart, and we are very happy to have gone to Constellations to see how people live daily and how this community has projects for the future that thanks to their union and support, they will get together.
Excellent visit to the communes of Medellin, an excellent Service from our guide Julian in this case, we feel comfortable, safe and accompanied. Thank you so much for the attention
The history of the neighborhood was the most interesting thing for me after seeing the evolution of the place. Impressive
Attentions are personalized and first class! The 100% recommended private guide! I chose 3 tours: city tour, Guatapé and the peñol and Pablo Escobar with Julián! Excellent
Excellent tour Julian Lopez was amazing with us learned and fell in love with Medellin thanks to the details he gave us and the incredible company recommended this tour
Excellent very beautiful person, I liked everything about that beautiful country, the people I treated were very hungry,
Book the private tour Grafitti and Commune 13. And take me longer than I expected!!! The truth Julian is a bloke out of the ordinary, loves what he does and transmits too much of good vibe. I'd go back a thousand times to do all my tours with him. I recommend them 100%. He personally picked us up in his car at the hotel, took us to the river park and as we crossed the street to the Barefoot Park and WOW my mind blew an experience with my partner to another level. Then he took us to the village of Paisa, we went to the boat park and a tour of the cable metro and then to commune 13. Every detail on your part, gesture, walkthrough and explanation is worth every penny $. I have no regrets and feel like I already have a friend in Medellin. Thank you once and a thousand times Julian.
I did this tour a few times with Julian, and there's always something to learn. Your kindness and hospitality is the reason why which I contact every time I come to Medellin. I love admiring the transformation of Medellin, from one of the most dangerous cities to one of the safest in the world. Thank you Julian for your attention. See you later, buddy.
The tour of the Grafitti Tour is something that must be done in Medellin to know a little of the history that impacted many families of Medellin. The reality of the criminal gangs that plagued the area and how crime towards that area the most dangerous of Medellín some years ago sensitizes tourists that despite the difficulties, the community got ahead and overcame that fear. Now, this space is a place that adorns the face of San Javier, Medellin with its colorful streets and the warmth of people when receiving tourists and telling their anecdotes. Getting there is very easy, from San Javier Metro Station you can take a bus that is worth approximately $1,500 pesos and the tour can be free or guided to know a little more of the history lived by this sector.
Unimaginable experience that we must all live, the best of Commune 13 with Julian, good ice cream, lots of security and comfort, Julian is the ideal person to know Colombia. Excellence
It was magnificent! The whole tour was great, with the guide Julian who is always at your command and always trying to give his best, he has extensive knowledge about all the stories that happen and always explaining the reason for everything.!
