Here are some tips on how to dress in Medellin:

First of all consider the weather, visit our previous post to learn more. In general, the city is known as the "City of Eternal Spring," but it can get quite chilly at night while during the day, the temperature can vary from 18°C to 27°C, so it's best to dress in layers to adjust to the changing weather.

Secondly, dress for comfort. Comfortable clothing is key when exploring Medellin, especially if you decide to take our District 13th tour given that the city has numerous hills, and you may need to walk up and down steep streets, so it's important to wear comfortable shoes. Sneakers or walking shoes are recommended and avoid wearing high heels or sandals if you do choose this tour. Also loose-fitting clothes made from breathable materials like cotton or linen are also recommended, especially during the hotter months or tours to Guatape.

Thirdly it's important to dress appropriately for the city's upscale establishments and nightclubs. While casual attire is acceptable in some parts of the city, if you plan to visit high-end restaurants or clubs, it's recommended that you dress more formally. Men should wear dress pants, khakis or jeans with a collared shirt, it is important not to wear shorts or sandals. Women should wear a dress or a blouse with dress pants, skirt or even jeans. It's also important to wear quality materials and accessories that reflect your taste and style. Keep in mind that dressing appropriately for the occasion can enhance your experience and help you feel more comfortable in upscale settings. Although at the end we strongly encourage you stay true to what feels good to you in terms of clothing.

One last tip is trying to embrace the local style. Medellin is a stylish city, and its residents take pride in their appearance. Men often wear casual clothing like jeans and t-shirts, while women often wear form-fitting clothes that show off their curves. It's a good idea to embrace the local style and dress in a way that makes you feel comfortable and confident. If you're not sure what to wear, take cues from the locals and blend in with the crowd as you prolong your visit with us.
