Local Indigenous Village and Community Experience - 6 Days

Discover a world away from everything you know, away from comfort, away from modern influence, where your soul is touched by its ancestral roots and nature places one of its everlasting magical spells on you. This is a chance to be a part of a traditional Colombian community that is in danger of losing its traditional practices and sacred acts because of modern generations. By visiting, witnessing and immersing in the local heritages we hope to continue to engrave these events and legends in the memories of the remaining communities.
