This tour does not glorify or promote crime, nor does it adopt the repressive stance of traditional institutions. Instead, we strive to deeply understand the causes, context, and consequences. Visit some of the places that shaped Escobar's life, learn about key anecdotes and historical moments, and understand the drug trafficking phenomenon objectively and neutrally, as if you were making a documentary. Our agency uses journalistic approaches and techniques. This tour allows you to analyze history and reflect on drug trafficking, violence, and corruption in Colombia. It employs an independent journalistic approach, free from media bias, censorship by authorities, or the personal feelings of those closest to the head of the Medellín Cartel. All locations visited on the tour are public and admission is free.

Experience Medellín’s nightlife as your intro to Latin dance culture — through rhythm, connection, and a night made for you. Not a crowded bar crawl — but a safe, dance-focused night guided by a local dancer who adapts to your vibe. We start with a basic salsa or bachata group class — rooftop, hostel, or academy. No experience needed — if you can try, you can dance. Beginners: practice and enjoy. Experienced: dive into open-level dance socials with locals. Then we hit Medellín’s nightlife — rooftop lounge, local club, or dance socials. ✦ Weeknights: authentic Latin dance. ✦ Weekends: same energy plus party vibe. Groups vary — from one-on-one to small or lively. Solo, couple, or friends, you’ll fit right in. This is more than entry to a class or club — it’s a curated shortcut into Medellín’s dance culture, with spots you wouldn’t find alone, plus insider tips and guidance to connect you with the scene. Check “What’s Included” for the breakdown. Spots are limited — book early.
