    As someone from Medellín I would recommend everybody to go to Jardín Antioquia, a small town located in Antioquia south west area. About 3 hours from Medellín.

    WELCOME TO MEDELLIN
    🎉On March 17, TIME magazine included Medellin among the 50 best destinations in the world in 2023.
    And in January THE NEW YORK TIMES also included Medellin among the 50 best destinations in the world in 2023.
    ❤ Medellin is the #1 city in quality of life in Colombia, it has already surpassed Cartagena in international tourists, also Medellin is an intelligent tourist destination and is a special district of science, technology and innovation.

    ❤❤🇨🇴🇨🇴Medellín is the most beautiful city in Colombia and is one of the cities with the best quality of life to live because of its nature, its mountains, its delicious food, also because of its viewpoints that are in the mountains in Las Palmas, the Mirador del Picacho, also because of its parks. For example, Arvi park is one of the best parks, there is a lot of nature with animals, not monkeys.❤❤Greetings from Medellín Colombia I recommend that you come visit Medellín come to Provence

      No! I felt very safe. I loved the city and met many solo female travelers. Just basic safety rules: don’t flash expensive things or jewelry, and do not walk at night (especially alone)! Travel safety video coming soon 😊

    Hello! Great information. I have visited Medellín many times since 2021. I got a girlfriend there in 2022 and just proposed to her in August. I'm learning Spanish and she speaks no English, but is learning in class. I plan on retiring in Medellín soon.
    Some of my humble advice to visitors:
    For Guatape, I highly advise folks to get a tour bus trip. It cost me $100 per person and they stop in a small town to eat a light breakfast, another town to sight see, then Guatape for lunch and to climb the mountain steps if you want to. For the price, it was worth it. The tour busses usually meet up at Parque El Poblado for about 7am. They pick you up and bring you back there.
    For Comuna 13, folks can just walk and don't have to pay a tour guide. You can UA-cam a Comuna 13 video and watch it before going.
    I absolutely LOVE Medellín. I'll be back in October 19-23 and 10-15 November. Retirement can't come fast enough....

      Hi there! I didn’t stay in a hotel while I was there, I stayed in an Airbnb. Nice to have a full kitchen and apartment set up. Also made me feel more part of the locals! 😊 I’m glad you booked! I always tell people, if you don’t do it now, then when ?
