Feel the ancestral strength of San Basilio de Palenque, the first free town in South America and a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage site. On this journey, you will discover the history of the Cimarrones who defied slavery, where alongside Benkos Biohó emerges the voice of Orika, a warrior whose words and courage inspired Palenquero resistance. Among streets filled with art, music, and tradition, you will feel the living heritage of a community that never stopped fighting. (This experience has been with us since 2014 — we were the first to bring foreigners to Palenque.)

Au départ du Musée de l'Or Zenú, dans la ville fortifiée de Carthagène, vous découvrirez l'or Zenú, son histoire et ses anciennes techniques agricoles grâce à des guides locaux. Vous prendrez ensuite un transport privé pour vous rendre à l'atelier Zenú, dans le quartier « 20 de Julio », où vivent des femmes Zenú de Carthagène. Vous y rencontrerez des artisans locaux à l'origine de chefs-d'œuvre comme le sombrero Vueltiao, symbole emblématique de la Colombie. Dans leur atelier, ils vous enseigneront certaines de leurs techniques de tissage, préservées depuis plus de 3 000 ans.

Discover the flavors of the "Heroic City" on our Cartagena Walled City Food Tour. Skip the tourist traps and explore the sun-drenched streets of this UNESCO-listed gem, where Caribbean culture and colonial history meet. Starting at Plaza de Bolívar, we kick things off with a refreshing Jugo de Limón. Along the way, enjoy local favorites like Arepa de Huevo, Carimañola de Carne y Queso, and Pan de Bono, learning about the iconic Palenqueras. We pass the Torre del Reloj, stopping for our delicious Secret Dish and a Colombian coffee experience. The highlight? A flavorful Coctel de Camarones and Arroz de Camarones y Coco, served with crispy Patacones, true coastal comfort food. We finish near Plaza de San Diego, leaving you with the flavors and rhythm of Cartagena.

The Rosario Islands have no shortage of day trip options — but most of them land you on an overcrowded beach with a plastic chair and a set menu. Isla del Sol is a different proposition entirely. This is a natural island inside one of Colombia's most protected marine parks, where mangroves, coral reefs, and a saltwater pool coexist with genuine hospitality and a kitchen that takes its six-option lunch seriously. The welcome cocktail, the beachfront spa, the snorkeling in actual reef ecosystems, and the mangrove tour give the day a depth that goes well beyond sunbathing — though there's plenty of room for that too. Two packages let you choose your pace: the Regular Day Pass covers everything you need for a perfect beach day, while the Open Bar package adds four hours of drinks so the only decision you have to make is which cocktail comes next. One hour from Cartagena by speedboat. A full day of Caribbean at its most natural.
