We had the most incredible tour of Guatapé and Comuna 13 with Steven! Words cannot describe how fantastic the entire experience was. Thanks to Steven's incredible explanations and the delicious food we sampled along the way, we truly felt immersed in the local culture. I can't praise Steven enough for the unforgettable experience he provided us.

Steven is just the perfect guide and friend. He worries about the well being of the group and a perfect service is his priority. Steven talked to us about history,
gastronomy and ordinary life in Medellin. We were blessed to have Steven as our guide for four days in Medellin. I fully recommend him and will engage his services again if I visit Medellin. God bless Steven!

Steven is not your best friend, don’t let him fool you by him saying that. He just wants your money and will pretty much demand it. Expected me to pay for pictures that he took on my phone. After I paid for his transportation service he decided to get someone else to pick me and that person took me on a long detour missing my appointment and then told me I had to pay him because Steven never did. The guy is a con man. He seems friendly at first, but be aware he just wants to swindle money from your pockets. He claims to have these services but when called upon, he says his car isn’t allowed to go into the city, what type of tour guide can’t have his car come in the city, I’m not sure what the problem. Furthermore I had asked him to get me a Colombian delicacy, which wasn’t the best, and said you get better outside of the city, when we were out of the city he had got me the same thing and charged me double, what a rip off. I returned to Medellin again, and got referred to a different tour Guide named Nikolai, he’s the best tour guide in Medellin. Go to him instead, way better than Let’s Colombia.

Best tour hands down! Had a great and personalized experience. Steven made sure we felt comfortable, it felt like hanging out with an old friend. We learned, we saw beautiful places and got to experience the real Colombia. I would definitely recommend to plan all Colombia trips with letscolombia.
