I went on an organized city walking tour and one thing the tour guide made clear was that it was NOT a tour that would include anything to do with Pablo Escobar.
He did not want to glorify the man and even cringed when he said the name Pablo Escobar.
I guess from what I gathered, most everyone in Medellin was negativity effected by Pablo Escobar. Sure he may have given away truck loads of money and built soccer pitches for the people in the slums, but the long term effects was worse.
Maybe a local webmaster here can explain to us even further of what it was like to live during the time of Pablo Escobar.
