This family's experience:

Activities: We started the day at the main archaeological site, San Agustin, and then went horseback riding to the more remote sites of El Chakira and El Purutal. We explored pre-Columbian sites

Highlights: It was one of the great days of our trip! We were far from the tourist circuits! We recommend visiting the site with a guide so you don't miss anything ✨
