Why take this tour?

Explore the city through the eyes of those who had to move from their lands to come to Medellín: thousands of farmers from all over the country. This experience was created by Nomad and the whole idea is for you to have a clear sense of the reality of Medellín like not many get, on places where no tourists go and the most important thing: having a close interaction and conversations with locals. We will start visiting the oldest market in town to have a fruit tasting, then we go to El Faro neighborhood in Comuna 8 where we meet social leaders and have a tour with them and then finish at the top of Cerro Pan de Azucar: the highest hill on Medellín.
