La unica cosa que no me gustò es que en la mail que nos inviais està escrito de llegar 10 minutos antes pero en realidad el tour empezó con mucho retraso porque otras personas llegaron casi 30 minutos mas tardes. Y, como no habia nadie por el espanol, me dijeron que solo podia hacerlo en inglese... Por todo el resto Dasy fue una guia muy profesional y la recomiendo mucho Translate this opinion into English.

The only thing I didn't like is that in the email you sent us it was written to arrive 10 minutes early but in reality the tour started very late because other people arrived almost 30 minutes later. And, since there was no one for Spanish, they told me that I could only do it in English... For everything else, Dasy was a very professional guide and I highly recommend her. Opinion translated.

It is so hard to make a review for this tour, because I can not find adjectives that can distribute the excellence of Daniel, our tour guide. He was nice, knowledgeable, interesting, took time to answer whatever question we had, and we had a lot! He stopped in a couple of places and got for us “salpicón” and “ limonada de caña” and paid with his own money! He made this tour the best my family and I have ever taken, and we have done a lot of them. Thank you Daniel!

Davvero tutto perfetto, spiegazioni date da ragazzi che queste cose le hanno vissute e le stanno vivendo, tutto eseguito con simpatia e voglia di fare ( non è cosi scontato come sembra). E poi le guide non si limitano a lavorare ma in un certo senso a conoscervi. 10/10 Translate this opinion into English.

Everything really perfect, explanations given by guys who have lived these things and are living them, all done with sympathy and desire to do (it's not as obvious as it seems). And then the guides don't just work but in a certain sense get to know you. 10/10 Opinion translated. Show original.

Abbiamo fatto il tour di Medellin oggi con Daniel, una guida eccellente e molto colta. Ci ha dato un sacco di informazioni sulla storia della Colombia e ci ha portato alla scoperta di Medellin. Siamo stati entusiati di poter fare mille domande ad una guida del posto, cosi da poter scoprire mille curiosità su questo paese. Grazie ancora Dani, riteniamo che il contributo di questi ragazzi sia indispensabile per i turisti che visitano le città colombiane!
