Tips
Overview
This tour does not praise or promote crime, nor does it take on the repressive attitude of traditional institutions. Instead, we strive to deeply understand the causes, context and consequences.
The topic of Pablo Escobar and the Medellin Cartel is broad, profound and complex. Thinking about the most fanatical tourists of this matter, we launch this tour of Pablo Escobar in the north of Medellin, in which we visit places little explored until now, all related to Escobar's beginnings in crime, his victims and the place of his death.
This tour allows you to analyze history and reflect on drug trafficking, violence and corruption in Colombia. An independent journalistic approach is used, not limited to media biases, censorship by the authorities, or the particular feelings of those closest to the head of the Medellin Cartel.
