The Comuna 13 Tour is one we will never forget. Not only is the graffiti amazing, but the history behind the area that Henry shared with us is truly remarkable. During the tour, Henry took amazing pictures of us while telling us all about the Comuna and what a transformation it has undergone over the past eight years. If you are worried about feeling unsafe here, don’t be, these people are very appreciative of tourists and the help they provide the economy here.
The highlight of our entire trip was getting to meet one of the graffiti artists and seeing his workspace. Henry has a great relationship with the artists Chota13 who has a number of amazing pieces of work throughout Comuna 13. We were able to buy some of his reprints at a very fair price and he was even nice enough to sign them for us. It was an amazing experience and I don’t think it would have happened without Henry!
The rest of the tour included a delicious mango ice cream stick, a very cool cable car ride and a trip to Botero Square. All of these activities were great and we could not have asked for a better guide than Henry.
If you are considering this tour, take the leap and book it and you will not be disappointed. Request Henry as your guide if possible, he really made our experience memorable.
