Before arriving there, we had absolutely no idea just how big Medellin was. This tour is an absolute must to see the main sites of the city and to get an idea of what is where. Our guide (Esteban - a whole separate 5 stars just for him!) met us at our hotel and then took us around the city - to a farmers market, up the cable car for a view over the city and beyond, to Communas 13 (my personal fave!) for a coffee and explore, for a fabulous local lunch and right downtown for a look around. Our guide was so patient and so informative, so full of local knowledge about the history and current affairs of the city. We felt totally safe with him driving around the mad streets of Medellin. Esteban’s generosity and knowledge made this already fantastic tour even better. So much so that we spent the next 3 days doing more Andes Adventure Travels tours with him. Must also add that we had issues paying online but this company was so patient and so willing to work with us to find another way for us to pay. I’m certain we wouldn’t have enjoyed our time in Medellin quite so much without these gentlemen.
