La Guajira area is the perfect place to find all kind of wild and adventurous experiences. And, at the same time, is home to several ethnics that work to protect their territory and their legacy.

So what better plan than combining adventure and culture!

In this tour a guide will pick you up in a motorbike, which will be your transport for a part of the tour. Then, you will do a 3-hour hike across the surrounding forest of Palomino. Then you will get the Seviaka indigenous territory. Here, you will be able to talk, interact and listen to the mamo (the indigenous leader) about their customs. He will teach you the importance of medicinal plants, the meaning behind their beliefs, and the way they live.

After the experience, you will go to Palomino River to start the aquatic part of the tour. The guides will provide with the life jackets and floating tyres. And you will be dragged downstream. Part of this will be in calm waters and another part will be down the river rapids.

After you get to the end of the Palomino River you will go back to your hotel or inn

Give yourself the chance of doing something new and try this.

After you get to the end of the Palomino River, you will finish this unique adventure by riding back to your hotel. If the tour starts from Santa Marta, the return is at 3:30 p.m. from the bus stop, so you’ll have some time to explore Palomino on your own or enjoy the beach.
