    Our Comuna 13 tour was...

    Our Comuna 13 tour was absolutely amazing, and Ezequiel was an incredible tour guide! We were running late, and he was kind enough to wait for us, which we truly appreciated. From the beginning, Ezequiel was friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable. He shared so much about the history, culture, and transformation of Comuna 13, while also making the tour fun and engaging. His energy and passion really made the experience special. The street art, music, views, and overall atmosphere were unforgettable. Ezequiel went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience, and his patience and professionalism did not go unnoticed. If you’re visiting Medellín, I highly recommend booking this tour and asking for Ezequiel! He made our experience even more memorable, and we would absolutely tour with him again.

    Amazing tour

    This tour was such a fun experience. It would be very difficult to visit comuna 13 if you’re not a local. We were able to taste street foods and experience the area in a safe way. This was our second time taking his tour and we would do it again.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for coming back a second time! 🙌 Comuna 13 has transformed into one of the safest and most vibrant areas in Medellín, full of art 🎨 culture and powerful histor. Doing the tour with a local guide makes all the difference 😜 — especially in a private group, where you can explore at your own pace, feel completely safe, and enjoy a more personal and authentic experience🥳. We’d love to welcome you, and your friends, again soon!

    Enjoy Comune 13 with a great guide!

    Ezekiel was an excellent and friendly guide. My wife is a little nervous when going to crowded places like Comue 13 but he made us both feel at ease and able to enjoy the experience. He was also very informative about the history and culture. I'd recommend this to others!

    Response from the operator: For us, the most important thing is that you have the best experience and that we show you the beautiful transformation of our city ♥️ a transformation full of history and hard work 🙆 Thank you for the opportunity. I hope you enjoy your trip to Colombia 🇨🇴

    Beat Tour in Medellín

    I went on several tours in Medellín and this was the best one of all. I really liked the guide's attitude, his knowledge of the place, and the safety measures. Not only did he show us the graffiti, but we also got to try traditional food and drinks. I thought the price was very reasonable for everything that was included. Thank you, Daniel, for the tour.

    Response from the operator: We loved being able to accompany your beautiful family during the tour 🥰, we hope to see you again soon 💕 It's wonderful to see that you enjoyed Comuna 13. You are always welcome here 🤩 Thank you for the opportunity 😻. Our guides provide the best possible service.

    Tour Guide No-Show

    I arrived at the meeting point on time, but the tour guide, Ezequiel, did not appear. After the scheduled start time passed, I contacted him via WhatsApp and was informed that his bike had broken down and he was unable to conduct the tour. Because this was communicated only after the tour was supposed to begin, I had to quickly search for an alternative option. Fortunately, another tour group agreed to take the two of us at the last minute, but the cost approximately doubled the price of my original booking.

    Response from the operator: We are very sorry about your situation. We know that you want to have the best experience, but we know that this was not the case because our guide for that day had problems with his motorcycle and was unable to reach the meeting point. There are situations that cannot be controlled. We sincerely apologize for that situation.

    Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.

    How much does Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic cost?

    +

    Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Medellín usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Medellín is not rushed.

    Is Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 23 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Medellín, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic?

    +

    Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Medellín can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Medellín and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Medellín within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Medellín?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Medellín experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guatapé Tour: Piedra del Peñol with Boat Tour, Breakfast, Lunch, Half Day Bike Tour in Medellin - Local snack, Coffee or Beer, Guided Tour of Comuna 13 Medellín with Snacks Included. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Medellín?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Medellín?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic?

    +

    Included: You will receive a list of the best recommendations for activities to do in Medellín; History of Comuna 13; Cable car and bus tickets; Street dance show; and Walking tour of Comuna 13 with explanation of the graffiti. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic?

    +

    Meeting point: Poblado Metro Station, CALLE 10, north entrance, just steps from the ticket booth. I’ll be near the large mosaic mural of the Virgin Mary. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic offered in?

    +

    Is Comuna 13: Graffiti tour & Street Food/drink with telesferic wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
