Tour Description

We'll meet at the indicated time in the main square in Salento and start this exciting experience. Ready to uncover the secrets of an ancestral game?

We'll head to a Tejo court, where we'll notice the atmosphere of pure fun as soon as we arrive. This game, which is Colombia's national sport, was played by the Muisca people, an ancient civilisation, over 500 years ago.

For an hour, we'll learn how to throw the metal discs at the 'mechas', triangles that we have to make explode. Be sure to concentrate because skill and aim are essential in this game!

As tradition dictates, after the game, we'll sit down to rest and enjoy a national beer, accompanied by some delicious empanadas, which you'll love!

After a total of 2 hours, we'll say goodbye at the starting point.
