Tour Overview

At the designated time, our team will collect you from your hotel in Barranquilla to commence your exploration of the city’s premier museums, located in the Atlántico Department of Colombia.

Your first stop will be the Romantic Museum, which aims to safeguard the narrative of Barranquilla. Through a collection of items donated by residents, you will gain insight into how the cultural identity of the city has evolved over the years.

Next, we will visit the CLENA Museum, situated in the historic custom house. This venue sheds light on the urban history of Barranquilla and its vision for future growth.

Continue your adventure at the Atlántico Museum, which was formerly the location of the first city hall in the early 1900s. Today, it showcases a significant art collection that narrates the story of the Caribbean region through the works of emerging local artists.

Following this, we will guide you to the Museum of Modern Art, where you can engage with avant-garde perspectives addressing pressing social issues, including environmental concerns and the effects of global warming.

Your immersion concludes at the Carnival Museum, a vibrant representation of Colombia’s largest celebration. Here, you will learn about the significance of traditional dances and ancient customs that continue to thrive within the cultural landscape of Barranquilla.

After an enriching 4-hour experience, we will return you to the original meeting point.
