Begin your evening with pickup from your hotel in San Gil. Head to Barichara, one of the most representative heritage towns in Santander. During the journey, watch as the landscape changes, giving way to the mountains and canyons that surround the town.
Upon arrival, start your tour at the perfect time to enjoy the sunset, when the golden light highlights the colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, and warm tones of the stone that characterizes the town. From one of its viewpoints, enjoy a privileged view of the Santander landscape, a perfect spot for photos and to understand the relationship between the natural environment and the town's history.
