Activity itinerary

Plaza Botero
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
You will arrive at this location in tourist vehicles, and the guide will provide you with the necessary instructions to enjoy the destination. You will have the chance to take plenty of photos there. The guide will also provide the meeting point and time to head to the next destination.
Parque de los Pies Descalzos
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
The pies descalzos park is a themed space designed to inspire visitors, “starting with their feet and ending with their spirit.” It’s the perfect place to walk and relax. At the park, you will find specialised guides who, through their expertise and knowledge, will take you on a magical journey blending nature and science.
Pueblito Paisa
  • 40m
In this place, you will find a representation of a traditional Antioquian town. You can enjoy typical gastronomy and the best view of the city of Medellín. The guide will accompany you at all times, and we will arrive at the location in the designated tourist vehicle.
Medellin Metrocable
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
The Metrocable is a network of cable cars, specifically monocable systems, designed for urban passenger transport in Medellín.
Parques del Rio
  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
The Medellín River has been one of the main drivers of development in the city. It is no coincidence that the first Metro line was built following its flow, which runs through the entire Metropolitan Area, creating a harmonious relationship between the region and its waterway. This is just one example of a territorial planning model that has been developing for over 60 years, allowing for coordinated planning and integrated territorial growth while respecting the river.

Comuna 13
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Our guides pick up passengers in the lobby or waiting area of the hotel where they are staying. Next, travellers are taken on a ride in the Metro cable cars, also known as the Metrocable. This experience offers incredible panoramic views of Medellín, perfect for photography enthusiasts. Afterwards, we head to the area of Comuna 13, where we showcase the area’s street art, including Breakdance shows, Rap performances, and, most importantly, the vibrant graffiti murals. Sometimes, if we’re lucky, we can witness works in progress and even interact with the artists. Throughout the tour of Comuna 13, we are accompanied by a local guide who explains the meaning behind each of the artworks
Escaleras Electricas De La Comuna 13
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
To carry out the tour in Comuna 13, we will use the electric escalators, which symbolise the driving force behind the community's transformation. Initially, they were installed to improve mobility for residents, but over the years, they became the hallmark of Comuna 13. In other words, this piece of infrastructure marked the beginning of the area's transformation, accompanied by urban art.
