Medellin Trips & Tours
Medellin
Nestled in the narrow Aburrá Valley, where forested mountains rise in every direction, the jam-packed collection of skyscrapers that form Colombia's second-largest city feels quite out of place. Yet, Medellín's delightful climate has earned it the nickname, the City of Eternal Spring, and you'll enjoy strolling through plazas and gardens bathed in sunshine. Once notorious as the stomping ground of Pablo Escobar, Medellín has transformed into a thriving city, most evident in places like Comuna 13, where street art tells a story of resilience. Admire the sculptures of Fernando Botero in the Plaza Botero or eye-catching works in the Modern Art Museum, and for the very best views, ride the cable car to the mountaintop Arví Park.
Start with a recommended trip or create one from scratch
The City of Eternal Spring captivates with its innovation and scenic beauty. Explore the lush gardens and art installations of the Botanical Garden, or ride the Metrocable for breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Wander through Comuna 13, where vibrant murals tell stories of transformation and resilience. Savour local flavours at the bustling Mercado del Río, and experience the lively nightlife in El Poblado. Marvel at the sculptures in Plaza Botero, or enjoy the serene ambience of Parque Arví. Medellín is a city of resilience that has become the trendy seat of Colombia with so much to do, that you'll be wishing for more time.
Whether you're meandering through busy markets or dancing the night away in one of its salsa clubs, Medellín's warm and welcoming Paisa culture makes every interaction even more memorable.
Take a graffiti tour of Comuna 13 to learn all about its difficult past and reemergence, or take a break from the city sights for a wander in the beautiful Jardín Botánico.
While Medellín's transformation is remarkable, some neighbourhoods remain edgier than others. It's best to check with your hotel or guide if you're unsure about the safety of an area.
