Amazing tour of the poblado area with knowledgeable guides
Manuel is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable tour guide about everything from culture, history, politics, geography, and business of Colombia and Medellin. Amazing recommendations of many things to do in poblado region and Medellin in general for all types and interests. We wish we had more time to spend here but we will have to make another trip back.
