  • Admission ticket included
1) After being picked up from your place in comfortable and private transport, we'll begin our tour heading to the northwest of Medellín, towards our CABLECAR SYSTEM in Comuna 13, an emblem of progress and innovation of the city. This transport played a significant role in positioning Medellín as the world's most innovative city, it is worth noting that Medellín has the only Metro system in Colombia, recognised as one of the most efficient and clean in all of Latin America! We will take a captivating return on the cable car, ascending the mountains and soaring above the vibrant "barrios". This unique perspective offers a completely different scenery, allowing us to absorb the diverse faces of the city. The views are simply breathtaking.

2) On our following point we'll get to experience one of the city's innovated "ELECTRIC ESCALATORS". One of the primary goals of these projects was to improve accessibility for residents living in the city's marginalized communities, they help connect these areas to the main public transport network, making it easier for residents to access jobs, education, and healthcare facilities. We'll have a short and leisurely walk around the iconic ROAD-DUCT that interconnects all the areas on the superior side, which were in constant conflict with each other just a few years ago, and it has become a symbol of Comuna 13's remarkable metamorphosis, from a place controlled by violence and crime to a thriving and inspiring community.

3) We'll start our journey exploring the renowned GRAFFITI ROUTE in the heart of COMUNA 13! We'll have a walk through its lively streets, charming alleys, and hidden passageways, immersing ourselves in a vibrant world of colours, cultural richness, and fascinating history. We'll explore the incredible street art spread out in every corner, each mural telling a unique storey that reflects the transformation, love, resilience, unity and cultural divsersity of these local communities. It's an inspiring transformation, knowing that these areas became the most violent in the world, and today they are a symbol of change, even the worst can change with a few opportunities and good intentions.
