Overview

Get facts straight from the natives who witnessed the terrible times during the late 80´s. On this full day tour, go back in time to the places that had the most relevance throughout 44 years of Pablo´s life. Starting from his humble neighborhood growing up, all the way up to the buildings and mansions he accumulated during his life, including his private prison, cemetery, and his final hideout when caught in 1993. Combining both city and rural scenery, this comprehensive tour goes further to include one of the drug lord´s abandoned mansions by the Guatapé Lake. This tour will provide a great learning experience as to what should NOT happen in society and which characters should be the real heroes. Tour focuses on the victims by telling stories of those who suffer most, like police officers and government officials. Since there is no glorification, at the end you will understand how resilient the people from Medellin have been. In fact, it is the most innovative city.

A must do excursion while in Medellin

Published on Dec, 2024

We have traveled to so many countries and our family of 5 (3 grown kids) all agree that this is one of our favorite tours ever!!! Our guide David was just incredible. He was so enthusiastic all day long. Our tour was 12 hours from pick up to drop off and it just flew by. We had so many amazing stops. David is a fantastic storyteller and we loved learning all about Colombia and Pablo Escobar! The tour was just our family of 5 in a mini van, so we were able to alter as necessary. We cut out the cemetery as it saved us 2 hours that we could spend at some of the other stops that we cared about more. David was a fantastic driver. For our boat tour, we were in a private boat with just our group. This was fantastic as we saw boats filled with 50-100 people go by. Our boat driver would stop at strategic points and explain what we were looking at. Another thing about David is that he was a fantastic DJ as we drove from location to location. He had a great playlist and we enjoyed singing along to the songs. At one point he let me son DJ and he had fun picking the songs. It certainly made the driving part more fun. Bring along a raincoat and/or light jacket as the weather changes so frequently! The hike to the top of El Peñol is well worth it. The views from the top are fantastic!

Visitng Medellin and surroundings has been a great highlight of our trip in Colombia. We had this full day visiting Pablo Escobar museum and Guatape. The trip overall was very well organized and the schedule has the perfect activities to enjoy the full day, interesting history facts to learn, and the great stone to climb up, super interesting.
