Our founder, Arik Anderson, is an American travel professional who fell in love with Medellín on his first trip in 2005. He built Medellín Group the way he wished travel companies worked when he was the traveler: fixed prices, written confirmations, someone waiting at arrivals, and a phone that is answered.
The team that runs the operation every day is from Medellín. That mix is deliberate. You get people who understand exactly what a traveler from the US or Europe expects, and locals who know which street, which restaurant and which driver to trust. Every host, driver and interpreter you meet through Medellín Hostess is vetted, insured and coordinated by that same team.
A registered travel agency in Colombia and the US. Contracts, invoices and refunds in writing, and passenger insurance on every transfer.
Interviewed, background-checked, trained and reviewed after each service. You receive their name and photo before they meet you.
US and Colombian WhatsApp lines answered by our operations team in English and Spanish, before, during and after your trip.
Fixed prices in US dollars, secure card payment through Authorize.net and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Real people, creating real experiences. The same team behind medellingroup.com.

Vip fast track medellin
Worth every cent of what I paid to be taken to the front of the Immigration line in medellin. I was in and out in 2 minutes. Instead of waiting in line for over an hour. Will use this service every time
VIP service was fast and efficient at the airport.
I used the airport VIP service. Honestly I was skeptical. But a very nicely dressed gentleman was waiting for me with a sign with my name on it. Walked me to the front of the immigration line. Took just a few minutes, and my guess it saved me 3 hours in line.
Best travel agency ever!
Fantastic travel agency and tours. Arik and Nataly are focused on giving you the best possible experience. Arik is accessible always and responds almost instantly. Nataly speaks English very well and always greets you with a warm friendly smile. I can’t say enough about them. I will be returning soon.
