Your guide will meet you in the lobby of the host hotel (Intercontinental) and transport you to the infamous Comuna 13 for this tour. When Medellín was the most dangerous city in the world, this barrio was its most dangerous neighborhood. Now enjoy this guided discovery of the street art that gave the area a bright & colorful new glow to the city’s new and positive transformation.
As part of your journey to and from the Comuna, you’ll take a ride on Medellín’s modern metro system, the first of its kind in South America. Also take a ride on the metro-cable, an innovative addition to public transportation that granted segregated communities atop Medellin’s mountain easier access to the city and its opportunities.
Local guides from urban collective Casa Kolacho have an amazing story of transformation to tell. After visiting their neighborhood, they hope you'll be inspired to create a better world, full of art and music. This Graffiti Tour is conducted in Spanish by its members. A bilingual tour guide will provide the English translation as well as the historical and cultural context. Your visit helps support the many community programs of Casa Kolacho.
