Overview
If you’re a group looking for a fun daytime excursion, you can’t ignore our Comuna 13 Graffiti Tour. A tour built for lovers of art and culture, Comuna 13 is a spectacular neighborhood and a must-see for every first-time visitor.
The neighborhood was a hub for violence since its inception in the late 60s. A hub that multiple armed groups claimed for the taking until just two decades ago.
History of Comuna 13
Once Medellin’s most dangerous neighborhood and formerly home to Escobar trained assassins. Through social programs, military intervention, and lots of art, Comuna 13, went through a renaissance.
Only this time, the artists weren’t that of Leonardo Da Vinci, Langston Hughes, or Duke Ellington. This time around, it was a collective effort. From the Colombian government, heart-broken mothers that have lost children to crime, and local artists that showcase their cold upbringing through graffiti and dance.
This Graffiti Tour highlights everything. From the birth of the neighborhood in the 70s as a shantytown. To a military operation in the early 2000s and finally to the social programs that helped San Javier’s youth flourish.
Today, the tour is an awesome daytime excursion where you’ll interact with local children. Learn about the different graffitis, witness street dancing, and get epic views of this spectacular valley.
Our graffiti tour is for everyone looking to see a side of Medellin that’s different from the norm, lovers of culture, and even those looking for that perfect, ‘gram-worthy shot.
So instead of nursing a hangover, why not look to get immersed into Medellin culture, learn the history and take in amazing views? What do you have to lose?
