Description
Embark on an immersive tour that fuses nature, culture and tradition. The tour begins in Medellín, where an air-conditioned vehicle transports you to Arví Park, leaving the city behind and entering into landscapes of mountains, rivers and fields. Along the way, an expert tour guide introduces you to the historical and natural wealth of the region, setting the stage for an unforgettable experience.
Upon arrival at the park, there is a short break to enjoy a snack with local ingredients to replenish your energy and announce what is to come. This short interlude prepares you to dive into the cultural heart of the journey.
The tour continues at a unique flower farm, a place full of magic and local traditions. Here, the experience unfolds in a variety of activities that connect you to the artisanal and cultural legacy of the area. You will begin by participating in the making of a silleta, learning ancestral techniques from local artisans, and experiencing firsthand the creative process that has endured from generation to generation. This activity brings you closer to the rural essence and allows you to appreciate the importance of manual labor in tradition.
Afterwards, you will visit an old-time inn, where a local historian narrates stories and legends that revive the region's past. In this space, history becomes palpable and each word connects you with the customs and experiences of ancient settlers. The narrative in the fonda becomes a journey through time, evoking images and emotions of remote times.
Continuing the tour, you will see a church built entirely of mud walled, whose simple and authentic design reflects the faith and ingenuity of the community. This temple, steeped in tradition, stands out for its unique architecture and details that tell the story of local devotion. Afterwards, a visit to a small history museum will allow you to appreciate artifacts from ancient times; each piece on display tells a part of the cultural and evolutionary legacy of the region, allowing you to understand the richness of its heritage.
The day culminates with a mountain lunch, a culinary experience that fuses local flavors and traditional recipes, served in a rustic and authentic setting.

At the end of the experience, an ecological hike through trails that wind through forests and natural viewpoints invites you to connect intimately with the environment.
