San Gil tour
San Gil has much more than adventure, and this tour proves it. You start at El Gallineral Park, an enchanted forest on the banks of the Fonce River where the trees are draped in long beards of moss hanging like curtains, and you cross the famous padlock bridge, where couples seal their love.
Las Gachas tour
Las Gachas look like another planet: a bed of reddish rock with a crystal-clear creek running over it that, over the centuries, has carved dozens of deep round pools, like natural jacuzzis cut into the stone. It's one of the most photographed and surprising landscapes in Colombia.
Barichara – Guane tour
Barichara has been called Colombia's most beautiful town, and one walk is enough to see why. Cobblestone streets, whitewashed rammed-earth houses with clay-tile roofs, artisan workshops and viewpoints overlooking the Suárez River canyon: everything seems frozen in time.
Tobacco tour (Barichara)
Santander is tobacco country, and in Barichara that tradition is still alive in the hands of its artisans. On this tour you get an up-close look at the history of tobacco in the region: how it's grown, how the leaves are selected and cured, and how a good cigar is rolled.
Barichara by night tour
When night falls, Barichara is transformed. The lanterns light up, the cobblestone streets fall silent, the stone cathedral glows and the whole town takes on a magic that very few visitors ever get to see.
Juan Curí waterfalls tour
A walk through forest and streams takes you to the Juan Curí waterfalls, one of the most impressive waterfalls in the region, surrounded by greenery. When you arrive, the water forms natural pools where you can cool off while listening to the roar of the falls.
Fique tour (Curití & Pescaderito)
Curití is the town of fique, a natural fiber that here becomes art. In workshops and factories you'll see how artisans turn the plant's leaves into bags, rugs and unique pieces using weaving techniques passed down through generations, and you'll visit the fique museum.
Coffee tour
From bean to cup: this tour takes you to a coffee farm to discover the whole process behind a great cup of coffee. You walk among the crops and learn how coffee is planted and harvested, and why the region's climate and altitude have such an influence on its flavor.
Villa de Leyva & Ráquira tour (2 days)
Two days to discover two gems of Boyacá. Villa de Leyva wins you over with one of the largest colonial squares in South America, its cobblestone streets, white mansions and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay; Ráquira, the town of pottery, welcomes you with colorful facades and crafts everywhere.
