Toller Ausflug in die afro-kolumbianische Welt Medellins. Alle haben getanzt und getrommelt und unser Guide war sehr aufmerksam und informativ. Eine willkommene Abwechslung zur klassischen Comuna 13 Tour mit kulturell relevantem Inhalt und vor allem innovativ. Wir alle hatten eine wunderbare Zeit mit Nene und seiner Crew. Daumen hoch!
