Comuna 3 Manrique Free Tour

  • 5 reviews | 379 travellers
    We enjoyed the tour and the guide very much. It’s good to see the community has a strong vision to create more values for the residents. The stories of the painting are wonderful. The only issue I had was the fact that it is titled as a “free” walking tour while we learned that we are requested to pay a “minimum” amount of 50k COP. Yes it’s good to learn that the 1/2 of the money goes to the community but it’s very misleading in my view to advertise as a free walking tour.

Tour Highlights

We'll meet at Tienda D1 on Carrera 50D at the scheduled time to kick off this free tour, delving into the heart of Medellin.

First, we'll board a bus from the meeting point, embarking on a 20-minute journey to Comuna 3 Manrique, home to Brisas del Jardín and San José de la Cima II neighborhoods. Wander through its streets full of colorful houses, pausing to appreciate the murals painted by local artists. Each mural tells a story, and we'll explore the meanings and emotions the creators aimed to convey.

As we traverse Comuna 3 Manrique, delve into its history, tracing its evolution from a violence-affected area to a hub of artistic and cultural significance.

We'll visit a local store to gain insights into the neighborhood's businesses and economy, with a brief pause for you to buy a refreshment if you wish. Next, we'll ascend to a panoramic lookout point, soaking in a breathtaking view of Medellín.

Finally, after taking tons of great pictures, we'll hop back on the public bus for the return journey to the starting point, concluding the tour after an enriching three and a half hours.
