Excellent tour in Medellin
The best nightlife experience in Medellin. The tour was super well organized, with access to the best nightclubs, excellent music and an amazing atmosphere. The guides made everything fun and safe. 100% recommended

We love
I really liked the tour of the city of Medellín. Driver Jorge took us to see the city. The service was excellent. He explained everything about every part that took us. We especially loved Envigado and Sabaneta. We want to come back soon at the end of the year and use the service again. Next time we want to go to Piedra del Peñol.

Mauricio knows every night spot in Medellín.
This was my second night tour with Mauricio and once again he took me to places that were perfect for night photography. I was especially lucky that the streets were wet which made the colors of the city light up in every direction. If you speak any Spanish, communicating with Mauricio will be easy since he had the patience to decode my mediocre Spanish.

This is a must-do during December in Medellín.
The tour is a little expensive but if you're in Medellín during December then there are incredible Christmas light displays everywhere that you have to see. The Disney lights along the river are gigantic and the energy of the crowds there are unlike anything you'll experience during the holidays in the U.S. I felt completely safe all going to the river, Pueblito Paisa, Envigado, and everywhere else. It is best to go on a weekday because the traffic on the weekend will be impossible and will add hours to this tour. I knew that Mauricio didn't speak any English but what he did speak was the slowest and clearest Spanish of anyone I had spoken to there. I was able to understand almost everything he said (I've been studying Spanish for a year) and somehow he was able to understand the Spanish sentences I was constructing. There were a few times when we needed to use our phones to communicate but that was part of the fun. If you're learning Spanish, going with a guide who can't speak English is a challenge I recommend.

Great guide and driver
I had great talks with Mauricio (in Spanish) - reliable person and great driver. The route is great and includes multiple interesting places and great view points. Medellin is beautiful at night.
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot for your review Hao, I hope your stay in Medellin was completely enjoyable and we hope to see you back soon.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Medellín.
How much does Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin cost?
+
Prices start at $285 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 Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 12 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 Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin?
+
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 Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin?
+
Around 4 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private and Night Tour of the City of Medellin 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.
