Day Trip · Medellín
Thirteen hours door to door as a day trip. We will always suggest doing it as an overnight instead, and we think you should.
A coffee town that has resisted being modernised, with a painted plaza where the whole town still sits out in the evening, two hand-built cable cars running up opposite valley walls, and some of the best coffee in Antioquia.
Overnight instead of a 13-hour round trip — which is how Jardín should be done — with a private car and a room on the plaza.

The hillside barrio that went from the most feared address in Medellín to an open-air gallery, walked with someone who grew up in it. Outdoor escalators, murals with meanings, and the 2002 military operation told by the people it happened to.

Food & Drink
The Graffitour route taken slowly and eaten through — mango biche with salt and lime, obleas, chorizo from the grill halfway up, and a cold Club Colombia at the top with the whole valley below you.

Culture
Twenty-three fat bronze Boteros standing in a public square, and upstairs the best collection of Colombian art outside Bogotá. The museum also holds the country’s most uncomfortable modern painting, and we will show you it.
