TOUR FROM BOGOTA TO SAN AGUSTIN ARCHALOGICAL PARK, HUILA, COLOMBIA

1 Tour code: San Agustin

¿ Why is this tour interesting?

San Agustin Archaeological Park is one of the places declared as World Heritage by UNESCO. Visiting it through us during holidays, on a weekend, or whenever you want to, it will be an unforgettable experience. It is a marvelous place full of History and mystery. The culture that made these thousands of amazing statues disappeared without leaving a trace. San Agustin probably was a huge religious center where warriors, political and religious leaders from hundreds of years ago from different places of North and South America were transport to be buried. This is why the found graves were usually full of treasures. This tour can be taken accompanied by one of our guides, using either public or private transportation.

When does it take place?: You can take this tour anytime you want. eWe will leave Bogota in a comfortable private vehicle and will be accompanied all the time by an excellent, professional bilingual guide.

How long does it take?: The tour is designed for a minimum of three days but it’s possible to request a longer tour. On the first day we leave very early in the morning since the way to san Agustin is quite long (8 hours approximately). Our guide will pick you up at your place and take you to San Agustin. Once in San Agustin we will take you to our special accommodation at a spectacular farm-hotel, located 5 minutes away from San Agustin and the archaeological park.

On the next day we will take you across the archaeological park, the forests, its mountains and the museum. We will visit Mesitas A, B, C and D, the Ceremonial Font and the Alto del Lavapatas; the Statues Forest and the Archaeological Museum. In the afternoon we will have an unforgettable horse ride to El Tablón and La Chaquira, an spectacular path where the magic of the Andean landscape is plenty enjoyed.

On the third day we will meet the archaeological parks of Alto de Los Ídolos and Alto de Las Piedras. In there we will see the beautiful falls of Salto del Mortiño (180 m) and Salto de Bordones (320 m) in the middle of the majestic landscape of the Colombian Macizo.
