You will be introduced to the game, history, rules and beer, because the more you drink the funnier it gets. As it was originally designed that way. In this game you will be taking some heavy discs and throw them against some fire-crackers located in a box full of clay. If it explodes, you score. The one scoring the most, wins, so everybody screams and praises the winner and give him beer.

The tour guide was really...

The tour guide was really friendly and nice - however the experience is not quite what is advertised. There were no snacks, the location is different to the ones in the pictures (it was a bar not an event space). Then they charged us extra for beers - we managed to get this refunded but the operator doesn’t seem to have good communicated with this app. We had an okay time but it’s not worth the price

Fantastic Tejo experience with Andres. What could be better than beer and explosives? Highly recommend this Medellin tour

Worse in Colombia

The driver was very good but that was about it for the tour. The Tejo was at a park near a Favala and not in the location shown on the VIATOR photo. Most importantly, the owner of the Tejo area was an older guy who insulted my fiancee as she is younger than I, to the point where she was about to cry. She knows my temper so, she did not mention until we were leaving the location. Had I been back in the States I would have went back and kicked his stupid ass before leaving. I would NEVER recommend this facility AND OR ANY TOUR COMPANY THAT USES IT period!! Very Unprofessional and the owner is a poor, broke peasant ass with no values for decency and respect. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS TOUR, VISIT A LOCATION IN THE BETTER PART OF MEDELLIN.
