"Jhoan is a kind and knowledgeable guide. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking for something fun to do in Medellin "

"Our day with Jhoan was a highlight of our trip. In addition to the 10 Tastes Tour, and as it was our first time there, we asked him to talk about the history and people of Medellín. His knowledge was extensive and conveyed in a way to keep us captivated. Splendid personality, and smart sense of humor. The food was also fantastic. His knowledge of the best street vendors, paired with the history and tradition behind the dishes themselves made the experience richer. And there was definitely no shortage of food. Luckily, there were breaks, with art, coffee, and Aguardiente. He even showed us how to take the metro. I felt fortunate that we booked his tour for the beginning of our trip because it gave us a very solid foundation for understanding the culture. I recommend Jhoan with enthusiasm."

"Jhoan was a great guide! He is friendly, knowledgeable and engaging. He shared a local perspective, and the tour was relaxed, informative and enjoyable! Highly recommended."

"My family of 5 really enjoyed our tour with Joan. Very insightful and accommodated our tour path requests and questions. Top notch tour, do not hesitate!!!! "

"A fantastic afternoon with Jhoan. One of us was feeling a bit delicate stomach-wise, but Jhoan not only provided a food experience, but a great introduction to Medellin’s history and culture. Highly recommended!"

"Jhoan is the most amazing guide. He will explain all options and lets you choose the one suited to you. "

"Jhoan was a wonderful guide for my son and I in Medellín! He takes his local knowledge and weaves it into interesting and memorable stories. We enjoyed the tour options he offered depending on the interest of the group. Thanks for everything!"

"Jhoan is proud of his city, proud of his roots, and proud of his profession - not only as a wonderful, warm and incredibly knowledgeable guide that will make you feel right at home, but as somebody committed to sharing the remarkable and complex history and the rich and resilient culture of his country. Jhoan will provide you with all the insights and understanding that only outstanding guides really do. And you’ll enjoy every minute of your time with him. "

"Jhoan’s tour was so thoughtfully put together. We enjoyed everything from fresh juices & fruits, to street meat and arepas. I’m vegetarian enjoyed so, so much delicious food that I wouldn’t have tracked down on my own. The variety of establishments is wide and he mixes in general Medellín history, too. One thousand stars out of ten. Can’t recommend enough, especially for vegetarians. :) Thank you for a super fun afternoon, Jhoan! "

"Jhoan was an awesome guide and very knowledgeable about the area. He is born and raised in Medellin and draws much of his experience living through the turbulent years as he explains the history of Comuna 13 through art. The Comuna itself has transformed into a very touristy area, lined with sidewalk sellers. The area is unlike any place I’ve seen before and worth the time to explore. "
