Interesting tour, thanks to Hans for telling us the story of salsa and showing us a few steps!
The experience was simply spectacular. The tour was very well organized and achieved a perfect combination of culture, history and local cuisine. The visit to the museum was very interesting, with clear and enriching explanations that allowed us to better understand the identity and history of Cali. The gastronomic part was one of the great successes: we tried typical food and drinks, all delicious and authentic, which made the experience even more complete and closer to the local culture. Each stop was carefully selected and the atmosphere was very pleasant. The guide was professional, friendly and knowledgeable, always willing to answer questions and make the tour dynamic and enjoyable. Without a doubt, it is an experience that I recommend 100% for those who want to know Cali in an authentic, cultural and delicious way. I'd do it again without thinking. An unforgettable experience.
