Route

1. The itinerary begins after a 2-hour drive from Cartagena, in the town square of San Jacinto, where our local guide will be waiting to show us a house that will villagers have turned into a museum, where they expose the findings of the ceramics of its first settlers, considered to be the oldest in America (6,000 years old), its current traditions, crafts, music and the mark that the massacres of the war left. The journey continues, but this time aboard a 4x4 vehicle until reaching the El Rastro stream, where we will walk through the tropical rain forest for approximately an hour, surrounded by butterflies, flowers and waterfalls until reaching the petroglyphs, which are figures that the tribe Zenú carved on the stones to represent their gods and perform their rituals. In this place find a natural crystalline pool in which we can take a refreshing bath, to then start the way back, this time on dry land (30 min) towards a kiosk where We will enjoy a typical sancocho in the company of the peasants of the area and rest in hammocks. Back in town we will visit the house of one of the artisans and we will see how with their looms can create wonderful pieces and even learn to weave with them. Before returning to Cartagena it is time to say goodbye to San Jacinto and we will do this by taking a cup of coffee grown on their land by the Cerro Maco community project.

About Cartagena

Cartagena, aan de Caribische kust van Colombia, is een ommuurde koloniale havenstad met balkons vol bloemen, kleurrijke pleinen en warme, muzikale avonden.

De ommuurde oude stad, een UNESCO-werelderfgoed, is een doolhof van geplaveide straten en pleinen met huizen in pasteltinten, kerken en bougainvillea. De Klokkentorenpoort leidt naar de Plaza de los Coches, en de kathedraal, de kerk van San Pedro Claver en het Paleis van de Inquisitie liggen allemaal binnen een paar straten. Bij zonsondergang over de dikke wallen lopen is een lokaal ritueel.

Top-ranked sights in Cartagena: Rosario Islands (Islas del Rosario), Old Town Cartagena, Santo Domingo Church (Iglesia de Santo Domingo).
