I'd like to take this tour someday


Pablo Escobar Tour
Take the tour authorized by Pablo Escobar's family

The Medellín Pablo Escobar Tour takes you inside Pablo Escobar's life, including the house where he was killed, his final resting place and his former home where you can meet members of his family.

The Medellín Pablo Escobar Tour is designed for people fascinated by this controversial real-life gangster who in 1987 was the 7th richest man in the world with a personal wealth of $25 billion and whom is still regarded as the world's most successful criminal.

See the Monaco building owned by Escobar and bombed by the Cali cartel in 1988. See the house where Escobar was shot dead on December 2, 1993 and his final resting place at a cemetery on the outskirts of Medellín.

Visit Escobar's family home where he spent his final days and speak with members of his family. Wear Escobar's hat, sit in his chair and ask questions to the people who knew the real Pablo Escobar.

Itinerary
- The Monoco building bombed by the Cali cartel
- The house where Escobar was shot dead
- The final resting place of Escobar
- The family home where Escobar spent his final days

What's included?
- Visit to the mentioned destinations
- Private transportation

Who could possibly care about this dead pile of crap? How many lives did he ruin throughout the world with his cocaine?

Why are you supporting him as an idol and icon? Is this the best Colombia has to offer?

LOL, Topic was road trip and those are definately road trip vehicles!! Only thing is those vehicles can just about make any thing a road, to which they will have few problems on. Think it depends on what your driving and mind set when faced with those rough dangerous roads. However I have been on some of those paved roads that go straight into teeth jarring, back breaking holes, etc. here in Mexico. This is why all of the functions in Mexico are never on time,LOL.
I do appreciate the heads up in this thread, as some of my vehicles would not make such a trip on the messed up road described here. So, I would probably choose another way.
It should be noted that I also enjoy seeing the rough roads that Ken takes on with his Jeep group, just some unreal things they do and tough adventures they take on. "Life is too short to be Mad or peeed Off on the Little Things" too much FUN, Enjoyment and COLD BEER which can take our minds off the "Little Things." Now, pop a cold one and have FUN,LOL!! Go Easy on the Easy Nomads. Lastly, we should never take demeaning shots at anyone's family members, either in jest or if angry as no good ever comes from such actions. Take CARE NOMADS and TRAVEL SAFE, bajafun777
