Sulay is very friendly, speaks English well and has so much to tell about the Comuna where she was born, raised and still lives!
I've done this same tour last year july with another guide and must say this tour with Sulay was much better, authentic and more informative.
Highly recommended!

I booked this tour as it worked around my flight time out of Medellin. I called the company many times the night before as the departure information wasn’t accurate. The phone number was disconnected. I found another one for the same company online - no answer.
I texted multiple times, instagrammed them. Tried to contact them via the booking provider and even had other local businesses call them.
Bottom line, they did not show up to neither pick up locations and another tour provider also mentioned they do these actions frequently.
I am still waiting a refund, and I should too be reimbursed for my Ubers there and back and most importantly wasting my time - something I can energy get back.
They finally contacted me without any care or concern that they left me in a neighbourhood alone that I did not know.
Shame on you. This behaviour is appalling.

Thank you Esadicen for simply being the best (and prettiest) guide for this unmissable Comuna 13 graffititour. It’s actually much more than a graffiti tour, I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to learn so much about the recent history of Medellín and how much of a turnaround this city is currently experiencing. I also became a super badass graffiti artist for a minute at the end of the tour where I painted a black wall with my own graffiti. I loved every second of it and will go back for sure before leaving! I can’t recommend this tour enough, it’s a must see in Medellín.

Esa took us all the way through Comuna 13 and it was such an amazing trip! She was so knowledgeable of the history of the community, the graffiti, and the people! The fact that she was raised and rooted in Comuna 13 made it such a real and wonderful experience. We got to enjoy the majestic views of Medellin from vantage points we wouldn’t have seen if not taken to places by Esa. It rained and while taking cover between two food carts, some neighborhood boys came over to say hi to Esa and then put on an impromptu magic show that legitimately blew our minds. The fact that this wasn’t planned but just happenstance made this tour a 10/10. I can’t wait to come back and have another tour by Esa and would highly recommend everyone take her tour.

This was by far the best tour I visited when i was in Medellin. It’s so different from all the other ones and that makes it more special. The tour guide we had was Sulay and she did an amazing job. Excuses herself for not speaking to much english but she nailed the tour. She is from the area what makes it really special and even got a little emotional when the tour was done and she was thanking us. The tour is interesting and the people there are so happy to see tourist which is great! It’s about the history of the neighbourhood and all the graffiti art.

I absolutely recommed this tour to everyone!

This tour was amazing. Sulay was great. Being a graffiti artist herself and from the neighborhood, she was able to explain each artwork and the artist behind it along with their story. I highly recommend this tour if you spending some time in Medellin. Honestly, most tours of Communa 13 are not done by locals. This tour will give you the neighborhood from a local lense.
