The real story of Pablo Escobar with local breakfast included

I'm a local guide with over 10 years of experience researching the real story of Pablo Escobar. I've read over 30 books about his life to give you the most authentic and well-documented tour of Medellín.
About me and my experience

I'm a local guide born in Medellín, passionate about the real history of this city and showing the world how it's changed over time. I've been running the Pablo Escobar tour since 2013, and for over a decade, I've been deeply researching his life, his impact on Colombia, and the legacy he left behind. I don't do it out of morbid curiosity or sensationalism, but out of respect, truth, and the need for visitors to understand the facts with a critical and human perspective.

I've read over 30 books about Pablo Escobar's life, written by journalists, former agents, family members, and people who lived through that time. Each of those books has helped me build a complete, truthful, and balanced story that goes far beyond what's usually told in series or documentaries. My goal is for every visitor to know not only who Escobar was, but also how Medellín managed to rise up, reinvent itself, and become one of the most innovative and vibrant cities in Latin America.

Over the years, I've had the chance to chat with former cartel members, victims, journalists, and residents of the places this story marked. Thanks to that, every point on the tour has a living story behind it, told with respect and proven facts. Every place we visit—the house where he lived, the neighborhoods he helped build, the cemetery where he rests—has an energy and a memory worth understanding in depth.

What makes my tour special

What sets my experience apart is its authenticity and human context. It's not about glorifying or judging, but about understanding a dark but important part of Colombia's history. Through anecdotes, real documents, photographs, and testimonies, you can form your own vision of the facts.

My goal is that at the end of the tour, you'll not only take away images or data, but a deep reflection on power, violence, social transformation, and Medellín's ability to heal.

Plus, I've designed this tour to be safe, informative, and engaging, with a fun storytelling style packed with details you won't find in books or on TV. Every visitor feels like they're part of a conversation, not just a tourist guide.

A tour with a purpose

Medellín today is a completely different city from what it was back then. What used to be scenes of fear are now symbols of change. Through this tour, I'll show you how the city has learned to turn pain into resilience, and how its people have become the best example of overcoming hardship and hope.

That's why this isn't just a tour about Pablo Escobar: it's a journey through the history, memory, and transformation of an entire people.

I invite you to discover the true story of Pablo Escobar, told by someone who has researched it with passion and respect.
