Comuna13
We will meet at our starting point and visit some local spots for local foods and visit a local family home to experience what it is to be living in Comuna 13. Our tour is different from others because we do not just take you to the tourist hot spots. We take you off the beaten path, and then we also go into Comuna 13 to enjoy local snacks and beverages. We will visit all of the highlights, such as the escalators, the graffiti tour, local street artworks, music, and more.
You will also have the opportunity to meet locals who live in San Javier (Comuna 13) and ask them questions so you can truly understand what it means to be living in Colombia.
