We begin the tour by jumping 4.50 meters, with the intention of falling into a well of 3 meters deep, we swim and then, just a few steps away, we see the water fall through a majestic waterfall 60 meters high that will serve us as stage to have fun for a while (a controlled descent, with ropes and safety mechanisms designed for people without experience).

Breakfast. In the morning, very early, a large number of beautiful horses await us at the exit of our hotel, who will accompany us on our Cavalcade , with the intention of going in search of many other archaeological treasures lost in the mountains of Huila.
Our Archaeological Exploration will lead us to exactly four archaeological complexes, of great historical importance and that represent the four most strategic points in the entire celestial location of these giant stone characters.
On our tour, we will stop to explore the following archaeological complexes; The Boarda complex with five statues of different origins, among which a huge female figure stands out. La Chaquira perhaps the most impressive site in San Agustín. It has several figures, which constantly look in adoration towards the deep canyon of the Magdalena River and the rising sun around. La Pelota a hill, named for its rounded conformation. It houses a complex with three statues, two of them anthropomorphic. The Purutal is a complex known as the High Crosses, Alto de la China y el Perico, where a sacred priest’s tomb remains and the only statues found so far, built with natural colors. Lunch.
In the afternoon, we finish our cultural mission and we are ready to face the fastest and most abundant challenge of our expedition, Rafting a tour of the strongest and funniest roller coaster of all Colombian rivers, this time on the imposing Magdalena River.
