Our Hosts:
The Wayuu Territory:
The Aapushana family will welcome you to Alta Guajira, an ancestral Wayuu territory, at a Wayuu rancheria 15 minutes from the city of Riohacha. Here, you will learn about the customs, survival skills, economic activities, and gastronomy of the largest indigenous group in Colombia and Venezuela.
Casa Montaña, Serranía del Perijá
In the foothills of the Serranía del Perijá, at 1,600 meters above sea level, lies the idyllic paradise of La Guajira, the land of flowers and calagualas. On a rural farm, Marcelino Torres Molina and his parents reign over the flavors of Guajira's Creole cuisine. Unique and authentic tastes, sourced from local products, fill this destination where the urban noise is replaced by wind currents and birdsongs from toucans, toches, and hummingbirds. Savor a cup of smooth coffee with medium acidity and chocolatey-citrus notes, the Guajiro coffee.
Atánquez, the Capital of the Kankuamo People:
In the foothills of the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta, you will meet Enosh Arias, a member of the Kankuamo people. Once nearly extinct due to colonization, the Kankuamo still preserve their music, gastronomy, and beautiful authentic crafts that reflect a deep connection to nature, ancestral traditions, and the natural environment.
El Rincón Vallenato, Guacaó, Valledupar:
Located in the historic center of Valledupar, this space is dedicated to preserving traditional vallenato music. The final night of this journey through deserts and valleys will take place here, where you’ll experience authentic vallenato led by the Escalona legacy.
