Description
Discover Medellín’s transformation on an electric tricycle tour. Explore the city’s inclusive design, admire Botero’s art, and connect with the community.
Begin your journey at Centro Comercial San Diego, where you’ll meet MATT, a local Changemaker and a fierce advocate for accessibility. Hop onto a Matt, an electric tricycle designed for people with reduced mobility. As you navigate the city, experience the streets from a perspective you’ve likely never had before. Identify the physical barriers and obstacles that many face daily, turning your ride into a powerful lesson in empathy and understanding how inclusive design is vital for a truly integrated society.
Aboard your Matt, head into the Distrito Creativo, a living canvas of murals and independent studios where the city's artistic spirit thrives. Stop for a fruit tasting experience, where you’ll discover some of the exotic flavors and textures that define Colombia's biodiversity.
Continue to the symbolic Parque San Antonio, a space reflecting the city’s healing, and the iconic Plaza Botero. Move among 23 monumental sculptures by maestro Fernando Botero, seeing firsthand how public art belongs to every citizen.
After a local lunch at El Social, continue through the futuristic pillars of Parque de las Luces. Glide toward Parques del Río, a massive green corridor along the Medellín River that perfectly illustrates the city’s commitment to sustainable, walkable, and livable spaces for all. Conclude your experience back at Centro Comercial San Diego, leaving you with a profound connection to the people and the innovative spirit that defines the new Medellín.
