Free Tour of Colombia's Armed Conflict
Uncover the History of Medellín
If you've got a lust to discover what happened during Colombia's armed conflict, the tour will begin from San Antonio Park. Once everyone has arrived, the free tour will begin as you uncover some of the most important, yet darkest chapters in Medellín's history.
During the conflict, unfortunately, Medellín was the epicentre of this war that took the lives of so many. However, the city is a great example of how peace can be brought about through kind acts during the transition and post-conflict periods.
On this free tour, you'll be brought into the heart of Medellín's streets to learn about the attacks that took place all over the city, as well as the fervent political movements that also took place. Moreover, the role of the Medellín Cartel and its heirs will also be explained to you.
Another topic that'll be discussed on this local Colombian tour, is the motivations of so many people and institutions to work within this war context, as well as their work in the period that followed the conflict. It's guaranteed to be one of the most interesting tours you have ever been on!
Finally, after discovering how a community came to overcome its past in one of its darkest times and create a more promising present and future, the tour will conclude where it left off approximately two and a half hours after its start time.
