Proposal within 24 hours
Vetted, licensed close-protection professionals who accompany you in Medellín: airport arrival, meetings, nights out in Provenza, shopping, medical trips or full days. They work in plain clothes, speak English, coordinate with your driver and personal host, and know the city. From one evening to round-the-clock coverage for executives, public figures, families and travelers who simply want an extra layer of safety. Tell us your dates and itinerary and we send a proposal within 24 hours.
What does private security in Medellín look like in practice?
Discreet. A licensed close-protection professional in plain clothes who arrives with your driver, walks a few steps behind you in Provenza, sits at the next table, waits outside the meeting room and knows the exits of every venue on your schedule. Nobody around you notices; you do, because the small decisions of the day, which door, which car, which street, are being made by someone trained to make them.
Who books executive protection?
- Executives and founders visiting for deals, factory visits or events.
- Public figures, athletes and content creators who are recognized in the street.
- Travelers carrying jewelry, cash or equipment: jewelers, buyers, production crews.
- Families who want a professional with their children and the nanny during the day.
- Anyone who simply wants to enjoy Medellín at night without thinking about it.
How is the service structured and priced?
By the hour for an evening, by the day for business trips, or as a package for multi-day coverage with rotating officers. Team size depends on the itinerary and the number of travelers. Armored vehicles and armed protection, both regulated by Colombian law, are available on request. You send us the dates, the hotel, the meetings and outings, and we return a risk review and a written proposal within 24 hours, payable by card from your account.
Does it work with the driver and the host?
Yes, and that is the point. The security officer, the driver and the personal host are coordinated by one operations desk, so the car is at the door when you leave, the host handles reservations and translation, and the officer handles everything else. One WhatsApp thread, one team, 24 hours a day.

Frequently asked questions
Is private security necessary in Medellín?
For most visitors, no. It makes sense for executives, public figures, high-value business, jewelry or cash handling, and travelers who want a professional by their side at night.
Are your security professionals armed?
Coverage is unarmed and discreet by default. Armed protection with licensed officers is available on request, under Colombian regulations.
How is private security priced?
Per hour or per day, depending on team size and coverage type. An evening in El Poblado is a few hours; multi-day executive coverage is quoted as a package.
Can I combine it with a driver and a host?
Yes. Most clients book protection together with a private driver and a personal host, coordinated by one team.
