This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after

Overview
This tour does not glorify or promote crime, nor does it adopt the repressive stance of traditional institutions. Instead, we strive to deeply understand the causes, context, and consequences.
Visit some of the places that shaped Escobar's life, learn about key anecdotes and historical moments, and understand the drug trafficking phenomenon objectively and neutrally, as if you were making a documentary. Our agency uses journalistic approaches and techniques.
This tour allows you to analyze history and reflect on drug trafficking, violence, and corruption in Colombia. It employs an independent journalistic approach, free from media bias, censorship by authorities, or the personal feelings of those closest to the head of the Medellín Cartel.
All locations visited on the tour are public and admission is free.

We will visit the public areas of La Catedral. From there, we will show you the cells, the nightclub, the halls of the old prison, the guard tower, the tunnel areas, the former soccer field, and Escobar's escape route. We will also show you the area where, according to some sources, a mass grave and a cocaine lab were located. We will explain the events that took place in these locations. According to local regulations, access to some areas may be restricted without prior notice, but it will always be possible to stop and walk through the areas of the old prison (now in ruins) that are open to the public. Some of these areas have been reconstructed to date. Some photos added by users show close-ups of the cells, the helipad, the escape route, the interior of the nightclub, the guard tower, etc. However, since June 2025, authorities no longer allow walking through these areas.
