Real City Tours Founded in 2013 by Pablo, a Colombian native with extensive European experience, Real City Tours has grown into one of Colombia’s most successful tour agencies. Pablo’s vision was born from recognizing Medellín’s burgeoning tourism industry and the lack of quality tour services. Leveraging his English skills and passion for his hometown, he set out to showcase Medellín’s vibrant culture and rich history to visitors.

The company’s flagship offering is the Free Walking Tour, a 3.5-hour journey through Medellín’s downtown (El Centro). This popular excursion, available in English or Spanish, takes visitors from Poblado to El Centro, exploring traditional parks, squares, such as Plaza Botero and streets while delving into the city’s fascinating history and culture. The tour starts at Alpujarra metro station and concludes at San Antonio park, providing easy access to other attractions.

Real City Tours has expanded its repertoire to include specialized experiences such as the Local Food Tour, Transformation Tour, and Fruits Tour. The Local Food Tour, set in the charming Laureles neighborhood, offers a delectable journey through Colombian cuisine, sampling local favorites like empanadas, patacón, and bocadillo.

With over 250,000 participants and a decade of top ratings, Real City Tours continues to provide engaging, honest, and fun experiences that bring Medellín to life through stories, explanations, and urban legends. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, Real City Tours offers an authentic and insightful exploration of Medellín’s heart and soul.
