During December and January, explore the radiant wonderland of Medellín, named one of National Geographic’s top 10 places to see holiday lights, on a nighttime tour by private vehicle.
Marvel at twinkling landscapes by the river, the city center, Parque Norte and Envigado, and drive through picturesque bordering towns. A local guide takes you by car to the best lighting exhibits, and you enjoy the flexibility of disembarking from time to time to better capture the illuminated sights. Bonus: Pickup and drop-off from most Medellín hotels is included.
It’s a tour by private car, NOT a chiva bus. In fact, the chiva bus is fun when you have all your family members together and everyone is able to tolerate each other. But we do not recommend a big chiva bus for a small group since it’s too much caos everyone drunk jumping on a bus with limited access to parking or restrooms. Private tour ensures a custom, safe, and professional experience without your phone stolen or getting hurt.

It is a very well organized show.
Very SAFE for families with small children, they have a lot of fun
The color of its figures is extraordinary and also the design of the DANZASTES waters is extraordinary.

We really liked everything and the guide is very pleasant and friendly. It drives calmly and it really is a ride. He gives time to admire and ask questions and is open to answering everything. Thank you very much. Daniel Escobar

A+ for the Christmas lights and A+ for our guide, Luis. He took care of everything, drove like a dream, and all we had to do was enjoy the experience. Highly recommend this private tour

Very enjoyable experience. If there was a way to avoid the traffic driving to the first part of the light show then the experience would be 5 stars. Daniel was very accommodating and took lots of photos of us with the beautiful lights.

I Booked this excursion with Viator over a week before our trip , we wanted to experience the Chiva bus experience with the family ,I paid over $200 for the 4 of us to go I never got a confirmation on where we were to be picked up, so I looked up a close location were the buses makes pick ups . it was a few blocks from our hotel so we walked when we arrived the buses were all lined up and loading guest but when I asked they did not have our reservation they told us that were Book with Viator that we would be touring the lights in a car and they would pick us up at the hotel so we had to walk back to our hotel so we were picked up in a car , it wasn't the drivers fault he was fantastic he made our tour the best it could he was bilingual and went with us everywhere we stopped but we were expecting the Chiva bus experience, I felt we could have just got a Taxi to take us to the four areas of lights even though our reservation advertised CHIVA BUS CHRISTMAS LIGHT TOUR .....I will never book with VIATOR AGAIN !

We had an outstanding tour with Daniel. He went out of his way to show us various parts of the city and explain the history. The Christmas lights were absolutely fabulous. We truly enjoyed going to some of the local parks that were decorated and having some local food. The major park was busy but the lights were amazing. I would recommend this tour with Daniel to anyone coming to see the Christmas lights.

This was an excellent tour. Our guide was super friendly and took us to all the listed towns and even took me by another area I wanted to see Park Llarus spelling that is lit up at night. When in Medellin over Christmas time frame I would highly recommend this tour. I was blown away by how all the towns go all out with lights, festivals, street food vendors etc. Everyone, I mean everyone the streets are jammed packed with locals and visitors enjoying the lights was so friendly and in a festive mood.

Thank you Julio for making our tour a delight. We were picked up on time and were warmly greeted by our guide. His English was very good. We visited the old town of Poblado, the light show at the university, walked around the lake at Parque Norte, and and down to Centro to walk along the lighted street. Was a wonderful time. Thank you Julio for being friendly and answering all our questions
