Tejo, empanadas and traditions (Every weekend!)
Did you know Colombia has a unique sport that involves drinking beer? And it was invented centuries ago! Spend a fantastic afternoon in a “Tejo” field and discover the way Colombians love to spend their free time on weekends.
Have some free lessons of this indigenous sport that consist of throwing a metal weight from a distance to create your own little fireworks show. For some people, it can get really loud so bring a couple of earplugs just in case.
Why is it different?
This tour is designed to give you a new experience, away from crowded and touristic places. A face of Colombian culture you won’t find in any blog or guide.

- Follow your tasty food with a “Tinto” and try the billiard modality that people prefer in the Colombian Andes: “Carambola”.
- Taste local drinks in a colorful typical “Fonda”; these places have a lot of history and stories. They were created as a stopping place for the “Arrieros” to rest their mules, have a drink and keep going from one town in the Andes to another. They are related to the Coffee history of Colombia, the colonization of Antioquia and the fabrication of the regional buzz: “Aguardiente”
