Stay a few days in Medellín to enjoy the friendliness of the Paisas and their passion for football. The “digital nomad” love to stay here for a few months to enjoy the atmosphere of the city, its dynamic and trendy cafes, bars, and restaurants in “El Poblado” or other less known areas of the city.
Don’t hesitate to organize excursions of one or more days to explore areas unknown to the general public such as Horizontes, Paramo del Sol, or Cerro Tusa.
