My family had a great time on this tour! Our guide, Daniel, was super informative and we learned so much about Comuna 13 and Coffee Farm. It was clear Daniel had so much knowledge and passion to teach us much as he could about both. Daniel was so patient with our three year old throughout and made sure he had a good time too! He also took amazing photos he shared with us after. This tour was a great way to maximize our short time in Medellin!

Booked this while having breakfast at our hotel and it was the best! Andres communicated promptly and had Sara take us on the quintessential Medellín excursion! The tour was private and customized to our likes and preferences. We learned a lot from Sara and also got great tips for visiting other places we didn’t get to. Comuna 13 is so vibrant and colorful! The coffee farm experience was so personal and delightful! The lunch was delicious and coffee tastings were exquisite! Thank you, Sara for showing us a glimpse of beautiful, vibrant and hopeful Medellín.

The experience was incredible!! It was so unique and we learned so much. Comuna 13 has an energy all its own and like nothing we’ve ever experienced – Sara gave us a deep appreciation of the area and the local and national culture that would have been difficult for us to understand on our own. And the coffee farm up in the mountains within the city was the best! Our kids said it was something they’ll never forget; we could have spent the entire day up there surrounded by its charm.

We (my husband and I with our two boys ages 6 and 4) went to Comuna 13 and a coffee farm just outside Medellín with Erika. What a beautiful day! Erika was informative, friendly and great with the kids. She kept them engaged while we all explored Comuna 13. Lunch at the coffee farm was delicious and filling! The farm itself was wonderful, it was a delight to learn more about the process. Highly recommend Medellín Day Trips!

Our tour with Erika through Comuna 13 and the coffee experience was absolutely incredible—without a doubt, the best tour of our entire stay in Colombia! From the start, Erika made sure everyone in our diverse group felt comfortable, from a toddler to older members, even going above and beyond to take care of a member who was injured. Her attention to detail and genuine care for each of us made her feel more like a family member than just a guide. It wasn’t even part of her job description, but she made sure everyone’s needs were met effortlessly. Beyond her kindness, Erika is an exceptional storyteller, weaving history, culture, and personal insights into the tour in a way that kept us completely engaged. She also had the perfect balance of flexibility and time management, ensuring we soaked in every moment without feeling rushed. The coffee tour was equally delightful, and our guide Alexa (or Aleha) was an absolute joy—sweet, funny, and knowledgeable. If you’re visiting Medellín, this tour is a must-book experience. It was the perfect way to end our trip, and we couldn’t recommend Erika more highly
