Description
Begin with a walking tour of the El Prado neighborhood, exploring tree-lined avenues and Republican-era mansions. Learn why this neighborhood propelled Barranquilla to become one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the Caribbean.
Discuss Karl C. Parrish and how his ideas of modern urban planning and residential elegance transformed the city and influenced all of Colombia. This same American would later be responsible for bringing your next stop to life: the Hotel El Prado.
Be surprised by the flavors of the Caribbean at a gastronomic showcase in the iconic Hotel El Prado. Surrounded by historic gardens and tropical architecture, enjoy a selection of fresh juices made from exotic fruits and traditional coastal fried foods prepared in the local style.
From there, explore the colors, contrasts, and everyday scenes of Barrio Abajo in a street photography experience steeped in tropical authenticity. Appreciate murals, traditional workshops, Republican-era houses, and corners brimming with popular memory in one of Barranquilla's most vibrant and photogenic neighborhoods.
Conclude your tour with a boat trip along the Caño de Las Compañías. A one-hour tour along this former artery of commerce and daily life, now a setting for recreation and nature. Aboard Las Curramberas, hear stories about men with alligator bodies and sharks playing soccer; and discuss the past and present of a city whose history and culture flow through its waters.
