Review with Jhoan
"Incredible experience around Medellin with Jhoan! He is so flexible for time of tours, dates and will adapt to almost anything! Very friendly and passionate about his city he will take the time to answer every question that you may have! I would recommend Jhoan to anyone looking for the best local experience, regarding food around the city, history and culture and even history of the #1 religion in Colombia, futból! See you soo amigo :) "
"Jhoan was an awesome tour guide and travel expert! He showed us all around Medellin and gave us even more information than the details we received through our larger travel agency. He took us around to his favorite street food areas and showed us some hidden secret cultural pieces as well. It was some of the best food we had all trip. After the food tour, he offered to take us to Comuna 13 on a different day after our other tours. He was nice enough to answer a late text from me a few days later and meet up with us to show Comuna 13 at night. This was an amazing experience to see all the sights, people, and culture really come alive. Jhoan has firsthand knowledge of the area and incredible passion for sharing it. We felt extremely safe and were so happy we got to check it out at night. Cannot recommend him or the tours enough!!"

Amazing and Informative Experience
"Jhoan was an excellent guide who made the experience even more worth it. Very informative and I learned so much more than what I could have on a big tour. The food and drinks were also very delicious and when I or my friend were too full to finish a snack or drink, he left it for a homeless person so it wouldn't waste. Definitely recommend him and this experience to everything. Muchas gracias, Jhoan!"

Food tour and communa 13
"Jhoun was the best.. I don’t have enough words to say how awesome and knowledgeable he is. We had a great time highly recommend Jhoun!"
"I had a great time during this tour with Jhoan! He is very knowledgeable on the history of Medellin and a authentic person to hangout with. I recommend doing this tour with him!"
"My wife and I took a tour with Jhoan and loved every bit of it. We started with a bunch of street food tastings around Parque Berrio where Jhoan told us so much about the history of the city and the area. After we finished there, Jhoan was kind enough to extend the tour to the Comuna 13 area so off we went to visit there. It was amazing to see the area at night where the street art color seemed to pop even more under the street lights. Jhoan told us so much about the area and everything it's gone through over the years which was so enlightening. We highly recommend this tour, especially with Jhoan!!"
