The free tour Medellin starts at the metro station ALPUJARRA. The meeting point appears as "real city tours" in Uber or any other map.
The free tour ends at San Antonio park and we drop you off at San Antonio metro station. Very convenient to continue your day in Comuna 13, to take the cable car or to grab a beer at the famous Salón Málaga.
In terms of sights we cover the main spots of the city centre: Old Railroad Station, Alpujarra and the huge "Monumento a la raza", Square of lights, Vasquéz and Carré buildings, Carabobo boulevard, National Palace, Veracruz church, Botero square, Berrio Park and San Antonio park. Our tour is more than just sightseeing though. In terms of content we cover the origins, tragedy and resurection of Medellin. All told in an entertained way by certified local guides who lived much of the recent history. We also cover the colombian culture and the current social status.
The Free Tour is not all the time walking and includes break for snack and toilet. It takes between 3 and 3.5hours.
No, our tours run rain or shine!
Comfortable shoes, sunscreen, hat/cap, water and a lot of questions – we love those! An umbrella or rain coat during the rainy season wouldn’t be a bad idea either.
Yes we do! However just under certain circumstances, such as group size bigger than 10 people and subject to availabilty.
Short answer: No. Longer answer: Our Free Walking Tour does include the topic of drugs, but we go far beyond the times of Pablo Escobar, as we explore Medellín from its foundation up to the current days. Although we mention him it can definitely NOT be considered a Pablo Escobar tour.
