Medellin is on the world's travel watchlist for 2023 and if you've only got one day or just a layover, I'll show you through this Medellin travel guide what to do & see, where to eat and how to get around. We cover central sights like Plaza Botero, Candelaria, Plaza Cisneros and others and then I take you to must see sights and areas outside the central squares so that even in a short time, you can still see how diverse Medellin is. Remember to watch this Medellin Travel Guide in HD.

Notes: It's about a half hour taxi ride from the international airport to the city centre so plan this quick trip accordingly.
Proof of vaccine was still required at the airport when I went in Jan 2023, so make sure you have that before entering Colombia.
The local currency is the Colombian peso and 1 USD = roughly 4700 COP.
I know the Medellin metro is iconic and the locals are very proud of it but I personally chose to take Ubers everywhere because of how little time there was and also it's very cheap (a 20 min journey will cost you roughly 2-3$).
I also know this video doesn't cover EVERYTHING Medellin offers, for example a visit to Communa 13, but as always - this is just my opinion on the best way to spend half a day here.
There was different ways to pronounce Medellin. I've asked a few locals and some say MedeYin whilst others say MedeZHin (how I say it). I feel there's no one correct way so whatever feels most natural to you. With my Argentine accent in Spanish, I always pronounce the double L sound as a 'zh'.
