Description

At first, you will be picked up by our guide at the hotel. Soon after, you will head downtown where the tour takes place. Your first stop is San Antonio Park, a sort of open-air gallery that includes some of Botero's sculptures. Botero is a famous Colombian artist known for playing with the proportions of his subjects. Here, you will be able to walk around as you learn more about the city with your guide. You will also visit gastronomic spots where you will get to enjoy some local treats! Next, you'll visit the Palacio de la Cultura Rafael Uribe Uribe, an iconic Gothic Revival building located in the heart of Medellin. You will explore its grand architecture, learn about its fascinating history, and appreciate the cultural exhibitions housed within. The building also offers great views of the nearby Plaza Botero and the city center. Continuing with Botero’s theme, you will head to Botero Square, the only open-air space in the world featuring 23 sculptures by the artist. Here, you will not only learn more about his work and life but also gain deeper insights into the city center of Medellin, its Metro system, and local culture. Your last, but certainly not least, stop is a must-visit in Medellin: Comuna 13. You’ll take the Metro cable car to the comuna, where you will participate in its famous graffiti tour. You will see vibrant urban art, engage with street artists, and experience the warmth of the locals who love sharing their joy with visitors. After this visit, the guide and driver will take you back to your hotel. This tour will serve as an excellent introduction to Medellin, leaving you wanting to discover more of this fascinating city and magical country.
