Nos encontramos en San Agustín Huila al sur de Colombia.
What else ...
At the top of the Magdalena, where the river gets its name, lived a mysterious and enigmatic civilization that utilized special volcanic rock to make art that would come to immortalize their mind`s creation and eternal silence for generations. Classified by UNESCO in 1995 as a world heritage site, the archeological park in San Agustin has been recognized as a Pre-Colombian settlement that flourished from around 600 B.C to around 1200 A.D. Many of the artifacts discovered include, sculptures, Sarcophagi, Monoliths, and many tombs. For tourists and travelers, it`s a great pleasure to walk the weaving and winding paths, through dense forest and open fields to enjoy the archeological wonders. The sculptures can e admired up close in their natural habitat, allowing all that care to view, an intimate look at the world perceptions of an ancient culture. For historians, archeologists and curious travelers, a trip to Colombia is not complete until their eyes meet the wonders of San Agustin.

Amazing family! I cannot say enough good things about them -- they welcomed me without hesitation and are the most generous and wonderful people you'll ever meet. I had an incredible experience working on the farm too. It wasn't the main harvest, but there was always something to do. I'll definitely be back in the fall to experience the real deal!… read more

A beautiful place, full of some of the happiest people I've ever met! Great food, amazing scenery, and lots to learn about the coffee process. It's important if you come here to share your culture, your time, and speak Spanish, as the family doesn't speak English. I stayed only one week because I wanted learn more about veg production in the… read more
