About this experience
Skip the typical Comuna 13 routes and discover its hidden soul with local storytellers who grew up in the neighborhood. Walk secret paths far from the crowds, explore colorful alleys, and hear powerful stories of Colombia’s political and social history — all told through the lived experience of this resilient community. Along the way, enjoy street art, local snacks, music, and spontaneous encounters. The journey ends with a rooftop ritual: a peaceful moment to relax, reflect, or experience something unique, like creative expression or a brief reflexology (foot massage) session. What truly sets us apart? A portion of each booking funds Wayacan Art Walls, our initiative to support community-led murals and cultural projects. So far, we've co-created three large-scale pieces — and more are coming. This is not just a graffiti tour. It’s an unplugged experience of Comuna 13’s spirit, struggles, and hope.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Comuna 13 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Comuna 13 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals cost?
+
Prices start at $15 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 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 42 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 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals?
+
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 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Comuna 13 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals?
+
Around 15 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Comuna 13 Unplugged: Secret Paths, Street Art & Rooftop Rituals 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 Coffee Tour: From the Seed to the Cup, Farm & roastery, Private Guatape & Coffee Farm Tour: The Two Must do in One Day. 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.
